Machine with the capability for cold water spray for washing or rinsing surfaces or parts. Some sandblaster may have an auxiliary gun or a by-pass valve to the blast nozzle to provide rinsing capability. The feature may be used after blasting to remove any excess grit, loose scale or other adhering surface material.
The machine uses a heated water supply or steam to enhance cleaning and surface preparation operations.

The pressure generator increases the pressure of the carrier fluid (water or air). Plunger-type intensifier pumps are commonly used to generate high pressure water for water jet cutting, wet or water abrasive blasting and non-abrasive pressure washing or rinsing. Crankshaft driven plunger pumps are also used for pressure generation. Crankshaft driven plunger pumps may be more efficient in electrical energy costs compared to intensifiers, but at high pressures (>20,00 psi) seals must be periodically replaced. Crankshaft driven plunger pumps also provide a virtually ripple free pressure source in comparison to intensifiers. An accumulator may be required to smooth out pressure fluctuations if an intensifier pump is used. In air based blast or jet systems, air compressors are typically used to generate pressure.
In blast machines, separators or reclaimers remove undersized abrasive or media and blasting coarse waste (removed scale or stock in the form of swarf).
Dust collection or filtration systems remove fine particle sizes of abrasive, media and blasting waste (removed scale or stock in the form of dust or fine swarf) that would otherwise become suspended in the air.
Blast cabinets are glovebox-like vessels that hold the workpiece and the blasting process. Blast cabinets usually consist of a chamber with glove ports, viewing window and internal lighting. The workpieces rest on an open grid that allows used abrasive to drop through for recycling.
Blast rooms or enclosed blasting booths contain the blasting process when blasting larger workpieces. Blast cabinets usually consist of a room with internal lighting that holds both the workpiece and the operator. The operator may hold the blasting nozzle on the end of a lance. The workpieces rest on open grid flooring that allows used abrasive to drop through for recycling.

Abrasive blasting, waterjet or abrasive jet head designed for mounting on crawlers or tracks. Crawlers are small vehicles that grab onto a surface with magnetic or vacuum feet mounted on a set of tracks. Track mounted units use a track to guide the jet cutter head across the surface. The track is mounted to the tank or vessel to be cut or blasted with vacuum or magnetic clamps. Crawler or track based blasters or cutters are used on large surfaces such as the side of a steel tank, ship's hull, vehicle or building wall, the blast stream or abrasive jet is presented to and scanned or guided across the surface for cutting or cleaning. Crawler or track mounted can uniformly clean or roughen a surface by scanning a surface in a controlled and repeatable fashion. Track, robotic arm or crawler mounted jet cutters are also useful in hazardous situations such as in disarming a bomb or mine.
The machine is capable of being carried or transported to the worksite, plant or field area requiring blasting or jet cutting. The machine is not designed for fixed location.
Robotic arms can uniformly clean or roughen a surface by scanning a surface in a controlled and repeatable fashion. Jet cutter mounted on crawlers or robotic arms are also useful in hazardous situations such as in disarming a bomb or mine.
The machine can be mounted on or built into a trailer or vehicle. The trailer or vehicle is driven or towed to the worksite requiring blasting or jet cutting such as the side of a steel tank, ship's hull or building wall.

On large fixed surfaces, such as the side of a steel tank, ship's hull, vehicle or building wall, plant floor, the blast stream or abrasive jet is presented to and scanned or guided across the surface for cleaning.
Part is mounted in a tumbler belt or tumbler for presentation to the abrasive blast stream or jet. Different surfaces are exposed to the blast stream as the part tumbler on the belt. Large parts processed in groups may be damaged through impacts with other parts.

Machines used to refine, roughen or clean (remove paint, grease, rust) a surface to meet surface finish requirements or to prepare the surface for additional processing.
Demolition is the destruction of structures or walls constructed of building materials. Hydrodemolition usually refers to the destruction of concrete structures or walls.
Descaling is the removal of heat-treat scale, surface discoloration, oxides, rust, weld scale or corrosion that ruins appearance and interferes with welding, painting, plating, coating, drawing and other processes. Stripping is the removal of an existing protective coating or paint layer to facilitate welding, recoating or adhesive joining.
Machines with part washing capability can remove grease, soil, oil, abrasive dust, blast debris, swarf or other contamination from a surface. Parts washers often use a pressurized spray or immersion tank of hot or cold water with a detergent or cleaning agent.

Ceramics and refractories have high melting points and hardness. Ceramics are suitable for applications requiring wear resistance, high temperature strength, electrical or thermal insulation or other specialized characteristics.
Masonry can be a mixture of stone, brick or concrete blocks laid or bonded with mortar, fasteners or other adhesives. Concrete and mortars are mixtures of a binder and aggregate (natural stone or process minerals). Mortar usually contains finer aggregates than a concrete mixture. Stone or rock is any concentrated earthy or mineral matter. Granite is a hard natural igneous rock consisting chiefly of quartz, orthoclase or microcline, and mica. Marble is a metamorphic rock formed by the alteration of limestone. Building materials consist of concrete, stone and masonry as well as glass, metal and wood.
Glass is a large class of materials with variable mechanical and optical properties that is formed by cooling from a molten state without crystallization. Glass is a hard, brittle material consisting of a mixture of silicates that is usually transparent or translucent. It is considered to be a cooled liquid rather than a true solid.
Any of a broad category of elements that usually have a shiny surface and grayish color, are good conductors of electricity and heat, can be melted or fused, hammered into thin sheets, or drawn into wire. Common metals include, steel, copper, gold, silver, tin, iron, lead, aluminum, and magnesium.
Any of numerous organic, synthetic, or processed materials that are mostly thermoplastic or thermosetting polymers of high molecular weight and that can be made into objects, films, or filaments.
Wood or lumber is a natural, organic based composite material consisting of cellulose fibers imbedded in a lignin matrix. Wood products such as particleboard or plywood consist of wood particles or veneers bonded with phenolic or other organic adhesive resins.

System component used to move abrasives from a storage vessel to the nozzle, gun, head or wheel. The injection or metering system controls the amount of abrasive pushed into the air or water stream. In large systems, the delivery system and injection system may be separate components.
