Key Features
Sandor D Features
Standard features that set this machine apart in demanding manufacturing environments.
Precision & Performance
- Direct-drive motors with high-chrome steel impeller wheels and manganese steel housings with internal liners provide aggressive blast power with extended service life between wear-part changes
- PLC-based control panel manages turbine activation, conveyor speed, and abrasive flow from a single station, with remote communication module for off-site diagnostics and monitoring
Built-In Extras
- Eight to sixteen high-performance turbines positioned at multiple blast angles deliver homogeneous cleaning quality across every surface of complex welded structures and fabricated assemblies
- Six model configurations span work widths from 800 to 3,500 mm and heights to 2,100 mm — the widest range in the Sandor family for maximum production flexibility
- Double-wall blast chamber built from hardened cast steel plates withstands continuous abrasive impact, while labyrinth seals at every junction prevent shot leakage to the shop floor
- Abrasive separation system uses adjustable skimmer plates and a uniform air-wash curtain to recirculate usable shot and remove fines, keeping blast quality consistent and operating costs low
- Turbines are mountable in any position around the blast chamber, allowing the blast pattern to be optimised for each shop’s specific workpiece mix
- Designed for large-scale steel fabrication facilities demanding high throughput, consistent surface finish, and reliable operation across multiple production shifts
- Continuous monorail hook conveyor suspends parts during blasting, enabling seamless in-line integration with painting and drying processes without stopping for loading or unloading
- Handles all types of raw materials and fabrications in a single system — plates, angle profiles, L-beams, H-beams, tubes, pipe spools, and welded structures

roller conveyor shot blasting machine
Sandor R-Line
The Sandor R-Line is built for shops that need consistent, high-volume surface preparation without slowing the production line. Workpieces ride powered rollers through a fully enclosed blast cabinet where eight high-chrome turbines, angled at 30 degrees, deliver uniform cleaning across every surface in a single pass. A PLC-based touch panel manages the entire blast cycle — turbine activation, conveyor speed, and abrasive flow — so operators load material at the inlet and collect cleaned parts at the outlet with minimal intervention. The integrated abrasive recovery system uses screw conveyors, a dual-chain bucket elevator, and a curtain-type air separator to recirculate usable shot while removing fines, keeping operating costs predictable and blast quality steady. Cartridge dust collectors with automatic pulse cleaning maintain air quality and meet environmental standards. Available in two configurations — the R 8x1 for plates and profiles up to 400 mm wide, and the R 8x15 for wider work including pipe spools up to 800 mm — the Sandor R-Line scales to match your throughput requirements. ACM supplies the Sandor R-Line from Cambridge, Ontario with installation, commissioning, and ongoing service support.
inline overhead conveyor shot blasting machine
Sandor I-Line
The Sandor I-Line is purpose-built for automated surface preparation of welded structures, fabricated assemblies, plates, profiles, and pipe spools. Equipped with inclined turbine technology at 30 to 45 degrees, it delivers maximum coverage with uniform abrasive distribution across even the most complex geometries — ensuring flawless surface quality and superior coating adhesion. Available in four model configurations spanning work widths from 860 to 2,100 mm and heights up to 1,400 mm, the I-Line handles everything from narrow structural profiles to wide plate work. Direct-driven turbines with high-chrome impellers and manganese steel inlet nozzles provide aggressive cleaning power with extended service life, while an overhead monorail multi-conveyor system keeps production flowing without stopping for loading or unloading. The fully automated PLC control manages turbine activation, conveyor speed, and abrasive flow from a single panel, reducing the need for manual labour and keeping operational costs low. A complete abrasive recovery circuit — screw conveyors, bucket elevator, and curtain-type air-wash separator — recirculates usable shot and removes fines, while replaceable cartridge dust collectors capture airborne particles at the point of generation for a cleaner, safer working environment. ACM supplies the Sandor I-Line from Cambridge, Ontario with full installation, commissioning, and production-line integration support.
horizontal chamber shot blasting, painting, and drying line
Sandor CH-H
The Sandor CH-H is a fully integrated blasting, painting, and drying line purpose-built for horizontal processing of profiles, plates, and large fabrications. Unlike standalone blast cabinets, the CH-H combines every stage of surface treatment on a single production line — workpieces travel through the enclosed blast chamber, advance into an automatic painting station, and exit through an inline drying oven, all without manual re-handling. This eliminates the flash rust and contamination that occur when parts sit between separate stations. Available in three configurations covering work widths from 1,500 to 3,100 mm, the CH-H handles everything from narrow structural profiles to wide plate work and pipe spools. Four to six high-performance turbines rated at 15/20 HP each deliver uniform blast coverage across all surfaces, while a parallel roller conveyor system adapts to parts of different sizes and shapes at working speeds from 0.3 to 2.1 m/min. The integrated abrasive recovery system uses three-layer steel construction with chrome plating for durability in demanding conditions, and advanced dust collection achieves 99.9% filtration efficiency for a cleaner, safer shop environment. PLC control coordinates every stage — turbine activation, paint application, and drying parameters — for repeatable results across production runs. ACM supplies the Sandor CH-H from Cambridge, Ontario with complete line design, installation, commissioning, and ongoing service support.
