Uniform surface preparation for longer composite components...

Leopard Cub blasting a long compoosite component

We've developed a custom design of the Leopard Cub wet blasting machine, created specifically for processing long composite structures such as tubes.

In aerospace, automotive, marine and energy sectors, composites require precise and consistent preparation before bonding, coating or finishing. The Leopard Cub ensures that every millimetre of a component receives uniform, high-quality treatment.

Key benefits of wet blasting for composite tubes:

• Uniform and repeatable finishes, delivering reliable bond strength and coating adhesion

• Gentle yet effective process that eliminates fibre breakout, resin damage or delamination

• Suppression of heat and static while cleaning and texturing simultaneously

• An environmentally responsible approach, with no hazardous solvents and no airborne dust

• Optimised design for long geometries, enabling continuous and consistent processing end-to-end

From composite landing gear struts and wind turbine spars to carbon fibre chassis tubes, our technology helps to secure the integrity and performance of advanced composite components.
