TITAN 15 Tool Steel |
Benefits |
|
| Wear parts & material |
Belt drive & single disc wheel Cast Iron |
Direct drive & double disc wheel Hardened tool steel (blast wheel housing is Manganese steel) |
Noise reduction as no belts Less wear & tear |
| Blade Lifetime | 300 hours | Up to 2,500 hours | Up to 700% lifetime improvement |
| Maintenance & Efficiency |
More maintenance due to replacement of belts & bearings Inefficient belt drive leads to more maintenance Unnecessary pre-acceleration blast media
|
Lower maintenance with direct drive i.e. no belt & bearings Better blast efficiency Double disc wheel for better blast media control and more effective blasting process |
50% reduction in time spend on maintenance 20% lower energy costs from eliminating energy loss in belt drive Superior blast results Less waste of blast media |
| Cost & ROI |
Annual operating cost €27k for |
One off investment for 4 blast wheels €36k Reduced annual operating costs of €18k |
€9k annual cost savings 4-year payback under ideal conditions |
By upgrading to a next-generation blast wheel using state of the art technology, the TITAN can help your production become more cost effective and more efficient with less time required for maintenance. Better for you, better for your customers.
With advances in technology, the Gietart blast wheel is no longer fit for purpose. You might start to notice that:
➡️Your business's goals for sustainable processes is limited.
➡️ Lifetime of blades is not sufficient.
➡️ Maintenance time is too high.
➡️ Blast pattern is not optimal.
You could have bottlenecks in production resulting in delayed deliveries to customers and increases to your costs.
With the very latest advancements in blast wheel technology, the TITAN blast wheels:
➡️ Could help you get ahead for CSRD
➡️ Can assist with eliminating wastage
➡️ Aide in a more efficient and cost effective production line
TITAN blast wheels are made from hardened tool steel, and are designed for maximum uptime - significantly reducing maintenance time with exceptional blast results. With the plug-in and turntable blades of the TITAN, there is less maintenance. With this, comes reduced noise and wear characteristics.
For four generations, our steel manufacturing customer has remained under family ownership. They have a passion for ensuring the best quality output for their customer. This passion, has unpinned their output since 1935. They wanted to ensure their production was best in class and with TITAN, it just got better!
Our steel manufacturing customer had wheel's which were outdated and no longer providing them with the best output.
Through a modernization project with Wheelabrator, our customer swapped 16 of the Gietart wheels with just 4 of the TITAN wheels!
The reduction in the number of wheels has had great improvements.
The result: greater cost efficiency and less downtime!
Now is the time to get in touch and enjoy longer stretches of uninterrupted production with TITAN!
