Blast cleaning for regular maintenance
January 1st 2008

A leading manufacturer of high technology cutting tools for the woodworking and furniture industry has recently equipped its Northern service centre with a Formula 1400 blast system from specialist finishing equipment manufacturer Guyson International.

Tony Harvey, director of Service for Leuco says that "in the couple of months we have had the machine, the Formula 1400 has proved to be a suitable choice. It is more than capable of dealing with the wide variety of component sizes and yet it doesn't take up too much space".

The service centre has to deal with a wide mixture of cutting tools including TCT and diamond tipped routers, saw blades, drills and hoggers that it takes in on a regular basis for clean up and service. The components are blasted clean in the Formula cabinet with glass bead to remove the build up of saps, resins and pitch that can accumulate on the cutting blade surfaces and build up on the cutting tips. "The Guyson cabinet cleans these off effortlessly in a matter of minutes", says Tony.

"Time is very critical as we offer a fast turnaround service".

The Formula 1400 is as an entrylevel blast system for light industrial applications or when blasting is required on an intermittent basis. A foot operated blast gun leaves both hands free for excellent component manipulation and the system also comes complete with an efficient dust collector, making these cabinets suitable for workshops, garages and maintenance departments.

Guyson offer a free component trial service to prove the process with no obligation to buy.
