VacuMag 3000: ultra-high-pressure jetting with direct vacuum recovery
The VacuMag 3000 was developed for safe high-pressure water jetting on vertical, horizontal and overhead steel surfaces. All wastewater is extracted by a vacuum system.
The integrated self-rotating DDF 160-MB 3000 rotary union with adjustable magnetic brake lets the operator set the optimum speed from the outside, while a nozzle arm with a special nozzle arrangement inside the vacuum pot ensures efficient removal.
Environmentally friendly, efficient and safe
Our robots offer significant advantages over conventional methods of surface preparation and industrial cleaning.
- Universal use
- No need for scaffolding or aerial work platforms
- Turns the work into a one-man job
- Safer, cleaner and more efficient operation
- Closed systems available
- Recirculation possible
