Thanks to its high-performance and unique design the Profelis offers a wide range of advantages for wire and cable manufacturers, including:

✅ 360° Uniform Finishing: Thanks to a unique blast gun manifold with 4 powerful blast guns positioned at 90° angles — or 8 guns at 45° for even greater throughput.

✅ Precision Ra Control: Consistent, reliable surface roughness to exacting tolerances, including Nitinol medical wire to very strict tolerances

✅ Versatile Diameter Range: Processes wire from 1mm (0.04") up to 54mm (2.13") cables.

When it comes to maintaining precision aerospace components like rotor and propeller blades, wet blasting offers unmatched advantages:

- Preparation for coating - optimum surfaces for paint and other coatings

- Corrosion and contamination removal — rapid cleaning without distortion

- Damage free finishing - wet blasting does not damage composite fibres

- Maximum bond strength - optimum surfaces for adhesion

Did you know that leading aerospace manufacturers around the world are turning to wet blasting for its unmatched precision, efficiency, and versatility?

Unlike dry blasting, wet blasting delivers superior surface preparation while reducing processing time.

Take our Leopard Cub automatic wet blasting machine for example. It has slashed NDT inspection time from 3 hours to just 20 minutes for a major jet engine manufacturer. See it in action on our Aerospace OEM page, link below.

And why a Vapormatt wet blasting machine is a great option?

In the world of aviation, the integrity of every component is critical—especially aircraft wheels. When it comes to Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) for crack detection, wet blasting is proving to be the cleaning process of chose. Here’s why:

✅ Enhanced surface visibility - Wet blasting removes grease, dirt, oils and all other contaminants to ensure a clean, smooth surface that makes cracks and defects more visible during inspection.

Our unique automatic Profelis wet blasting machine can perform the following processes on bandsaw blades:

• Honing - Wet blasting can accurately hone bandsaw blade cutting teeth to a specific radius, reducing heat build-up in the tips of the teeth and the likelihood of chipping, micro-cracking, or premature wear. This contributes to extended blade life and better performance. It also eliminates the need for the blade to be ‘worn in’, allowing it to be used at full production speed from new.

Enter wet blasting – a gentle yet powerful surface treatment that transforms AM parts. Here’s why leading industries (Aerospace, Medical, Automotive) are using it:
