A venturi cartridge regulating device for an air-particle dispensing system is provided, which is designed to be pre-assembled and installed in a chamber capable of atmospheric pressurization to regulate the required proportions of air and particle in a mixture formed upon activation by a propellant source and to direct a stream of a particle-gas mixture out of the chamber toward a targeted surface. The apparatus includes a chamber comprising a first plurality of inlet holes and a second plurality of inlet holes; and a conduit arranged at least partially within the chamber having a first opening arranged in the chamber. The first plurality of inlet holes is configured to intake a first substance, the second plurality of inlet holes is configured to intake a second substance, and a mixture of the first and second substances is created and mixture enters the conduit through the first opening.

The subject of the invention is an abrasive blast machine for surfaces of large-scale workpieces comprising a housing (O) constituting a working chamber, a kinematic mechanism for moving the effector, an abrasive recirculation system, an effector feeding system with recirculated abrasive, characterized in that the kinematic mechanism is a multipart kinematic mechanism (MK) with at least four-axis, and in that, the effector is an impact turbine (T), which produces the treatment tool and directs it to the workpiece.

An apparatus for finishing a component includes at least one articulating arm, at least one plasma gun disposed at an end of a first articulating arm of the at least one articulating arm, at least one shot peen nozzle maintained in a fixed positioned relative to the plasma gun, and a controller controllably coupled to the articulating arm such that output signals from the controller control motions of the articulating arm.

A blasting device has a spray unit for spraying blasting agent onto the surface to be treated. The spray unit has an insert 23′ in which a nozzle 13′ is rotatable. This nozzle 13′ is provided with a number of spray channels 19′ which are at an angle 21′ relative to the supply direction 17 of the blasting agent. The blasting agent is pressed through the spray channels 19′ under pressure and exerts a force on the wall of the spray channels 19′ causing the nozzle 13′ to rotate. The jets emerging from the rotating nozzle 13′ will make a rotating movement. The joint area of the cross-sections of the spray channels 19′ is larger than one third of the cross-sectional area of the circular-cylindrical part of the nozzle. The angle 21′ at which the spray channels are located with respect to the supply direction 17 of the blasting agent is greater than zero and less than 10 degrees.

An omnidirectional blast media dispensing apparatus mounted to an excavator and designed to dispense abrasive media from a blast pot is provided. The apparatus adjusts directional flow of the abrasive media exiting the apparatus to contact a desired target. The apparatus includes a housing coupled to the boom of the excavator, a hydraulic motor assembly coupled to the housing and operably connected to hydraulic lines of the excavator, and a main tubular member rotatably mounted to the housing and operably connected to the hydraulic motor assembly. The first end of the main tubular member is coupled to the blast pot and a nozzle is coupled to the second end of the main tubular member. Fluid flows from the hydraulic lines of the excavator to the hydraulic motor assembly to enable the hydraulic motor assembly to rotatably adjust the main tubular member to direct the nozzle toward the target.
