The AccuFlo micro-abrasive blaster is an effective process for deburring needles, selectively removing polymer and PTFE coating from catheters and guide wires, removing encapsulation material from pacemakers, and removing remelt and oxidation on laser cut stents.
AccuFlo is the first abrasive blaster to be equipped with Simoom Technology – an innovative system of mixing air and abrasive to improve flow consistency. The result is tighter control over the volume of powder flowing through the machine. This gives the AccuFlo the flexibility to be used in a wider range of applications as well as giving it the increased powder flow to cut processing times on traditional ones.
Featuring a new ergonomically designed handpiece, not only is the design of the AccuFlo more comfortable to use, but it also has less wear points for longer life. A larger media tank features a clear top for easy checking of the powder level. Easy-to-read LCD counters keep track of blast cycles and hours of use, providing simple milestones for maintenance, and an open design with color-coded air lines and connectors facilitate regular maintenance.
