How is it possible to reach such high performance levels at speeds of just 3,500 rpm, and how is the sandblasting effect achieved?
When using the correct working pressure, the work area of the MBX Belt on the work surface is enlarged in much the same way as when using a belt sander. This increases the working speed. The loop-like motion of the MBX Belt causes the angled bristle wires, which are individually mounted in the flexible carrier material, to strike the work surface with strong acceleration. The angled wire tips ensure that the sharp tips aggressively strike the work surface at the proper angle. This removes, for example, paint and sealing compounds in much the same way as sandblasting. The sandblasting effect is clearly visible on the target surface, which offers the best substrate for tinplating, filler applications and a wide range of adhesive applications. Scientific studies have shown that the system’s design results in each individual wire tip striking the target service twice per revolution, which further increases performance. This requires a rotational speed of circa 3,300 rpm for the MBX Belt Sy
