Sandblasting booths
All our free jet sandblasting systems allow manual blasting on metal surfaces such as steel, aluminium and brass, as well as on glass and ceramics. Particularly, Eurotherm booths can be fitted to sandblast stainless steel as well, by equipping the system with specific technical devices that avoid superficial pollution of the material to be treated.
In Eurotherm we design sandblasting booths with total or partial grit recovery. In such cases, the abrasive material dispersed on the ground in the sandblasting booth is recovered and separated from coarse waste and dust, in order to be used again. In this way, waste and preparation time for the following process are reduced. Our technical team will help you choose the best system for your company’s needs.
Our free jet blasting systems are custom-made: we take into account the spaces, needs and goals of our customers, in order to structure a product that is functional and respondent to all processing requirements.
Sandblasting systems 4.0
Eurotherm engineers are at the forefront of 4.0 sandblasting equipment, designed to be connected to production lines in full compliance with the parameters required by the regulations of the Transition Plan 4.0.
Eurotherm sandblasting booths
All our sandblasting booths are designed to treat products of any size. Inside the booths, the operator can perform blasting in absolute safety and efficiency.
- 01
Easy and cheap maintenance.
- 02
Total customization of the booths, as the systems can be made to measure, in order to to meet the most specific needs.
- 03
Rapid assembly.
- 04
Compliance with CE standards.
- 05
.Evenly distributed lighting using LED lamps. This system, as well as helping to maintain the system’s high performance, leads to considerable energy savings and reduced maintenance costs.
- 06
Resistance and durability over time. The booth‘s inside (both the walls and the roof) is coated with anti-abrasive rubber, in order to protect the booth walls from the jets of abrasive material. The booth is made of pre-painted, mineral wool pre-insulated panels, covered with anti-abrasive rubber and supported by a painted steel structure.
- 07
Acoustic insulation thanks to the use of 80 mm thick mineral wool panels, which reduce noise outside the booth
- 08
Cleanliness inside the booth, thanks to the constant flow of air, made possible by an industrial dust suppressor. Our technical team will calculate the air flow’s reach of the sandblasting booth to perfection, in order to preserve maximum visibility as well as the operator’s safety.
- 09
Easy transport of the material by overhead crane, rail cart or overhead conveyor.
- 10
Safe working environment. Bright and clean, Eurotherm booths are also equipped with doors whose devices immediately stop the sandblasting process should the doors open.
Thanks to such design features, Eurotherm sandblasting booths provide a functional, insulated and clean working environment both inside and outside the booth.
Sandblasting systems with total or partial grit recovery
Sandblasting systems with partial or total grit recovery reduce or eliminate the need to prepare the working area, and allow the abrasive material to be recovered for further use, thus reducing waste.
A separator removes dust, coarse waste, or other impurities from the blasting grit, feeding it back in a continuous cycle into the silo, which will continue to supply the sandblaster during processing.
The grit recovery systems prevent the abrasive from accumulating during the process, also ensuring the operator to freely move around the environment in complete safety.
Eurotherm sandblasting systems can be equipped with two recovery modes:
With foundations, in which case recovery is carried out under the floor.
Without foundations, in which the total recovery is done in the same way as the system with foundations but, in this case, the recovery system is above ground level.
PARTIAL RECOVERY
The partial abrasive recovery system requires little construction work and is easy to install. At the end of the blasting operation, the abrasive dispersed on the chamber floor can be pushed manually into the conveyor hopper, from where it will be separated from dust and re-introduced into the process.
The choice between a sandblasting booth with a total or partial abrasive recovery system must take into account many aspects, such as: the type of processing, the size of the products and the space that is available. Our technicians will be able to advise you on the best solution for your needs.
Customized sandblasting systems
Eurotherm manufactures custom-made sandblasting equipment in order to solve any problem related to the sandblasting treatment of objects of any size. Blasting booths are designed and assembled according to your actual needs, the products to be treated and the space where they will be located.

We mainly manufacture custom-made systems, designed to meet any production or space requirements. Our technical team will be able to counsel you best, from design to testing.
Depending on your needs, the products can enter Eurotherm blasting booths by overhead cranes, rail carts or suspended rails.
Our sandblasting machines are Clemco branded, as are all spare parts.
The Clemco equipment supplied with the sandblasting booth is generally as follows:
A CLEMCO sandblasting machine with remote control built according to current standards, for a maximum working pressure of 12 Bar. It is supplied complete with:
- 200 liter tank;
- handrail to facilitate inspections inside;
- wheels for easy movement;
- sandblasting cycle start and stop control with aluminum handle valve, equipped with safety blocking system and pneumatic circuit with double hose, to avoid any accidental start;
- 20 meters of double sheathed hose, complete with fittings for the double remote control;
- valve for abrasive;
- 24 v electro valve for door safety;
- exhaust silencer;
- door safety limit switch.
A sandblasting kit consisting of:
- 20 meters of abrasive tube Ø 25×40;
- hose holder for pipe;
- nozzle holder;
- tungsten carbide Venturi nozzle.
A protection kit for sandblasting composed of:
- 20 meters of air hose;
- a wide visor CE helmet with double rectangular safety glass and integrated cape;
- an active carbon filter with pressure regulator and pressure gauge.
All our sandblasting booths are equipped with special devices to protect the safety of sandblasting operators, such as:
- Gun with “dead man” control;
- Blasting interdiction system in case of door opening or system anomaly;
- Breathing helmet.
The main fields are industrial (light and heavy carpentry), railways, naval, piping – oil and gas, automotive, restoration.
The variety of surfaces it is possible to sandblast on are many: aluminum, steel, cast iron, wood, ceramics, glass and marble are just some of the main ones. Our sandblasting equipment is also designed to work on stainless steel. In this case, the booth will be equipped with special measures to avoid pollution of the abrasive and of the surfaces to be treated.
Any type of abrasive material can be used. The main abrasive materials we use are steel grit, stainless steel grit, red-brown or white corundum, glass or steel microspheres, ceramic microspheres, garnet and silica sand. It is also possible to sandblast with walnut shells or corn cob.
The abrasive material must be chosen depending on the surface to be sandblasted and the roughness to be achieved. Our technical department will support you in this choice, by following the technical steps of the sandblasting process step by step.
Yes, depending on the dimensions. There are special Clemco nozzles, designed to meet such needs.
The booth and all the components are covered by warranty as per current regulations.
They can be designed both ways, depending on your needs. If it is possible to carry out civil works, the scrapers for recovering the abrasive will be housed inside the foundations, while if this is not possible, a special base will be designed.
Sandblasting booths without foundations can be easily disassembled and reassembled in another location and can be a good solution for those companies that, for example, find themselves working in rented sheds or need to carry out special temporary work.
Our technical team can advise you on the best solution for your needs.
The booths, as well as the rest of the equipment, are designed to be installed indoors, with the exception of special cases for which we have also built booths in tensile structures.
With a manual sandblasting system it is possible to abrade any type of surface with any shape, as it is the most flexible solution. With an automatic blasting system this is not possible: the maximum dimensions set for blasting a particular object cannot be changed.
We design and build sandblasting booths that can be assembled in line with the paint process and the ovens, to ensure a complete workflow, depending on the customer’s needs.
