The SUPERIOR EdgeBlast Pipes Shotblasting Machine is engineered for the demanding requirements of the oil, gas, and water infrastructure sectors. Whether you are reconditioning old pipes or preparing new stock for coating, this system delivers the consistent surface quality required for long-term durability.
The EdgeBlast Pipes Advantage. The challenge with pipe blasting is maintaining a consistent distance between the blast wheel and the curved surface. The EdgeBlast Pipes solves this with a smart turbine arrangement.
- Bottom-Up Blasting: For larger diameters, turbines are mounted at the bottom of the machine. As the pipe diameter changes, the distance to the bottom turbines remains constant, ensuring consistent blast intensity without complex adjustments.
- Dynamic Transport: Pipes travel on conical rollers (for small diameters) or heavy-duty discs (for large diameters). These are angled to create a spiral forward motion, ensuring the pipe passes through the blast stream multiple times for thorough cleaning.

Seamless Line Integration. The SUPERIOR EdgeBlast Pipes Shotblasting Machine is designed to fit into high-speed coating plants:
- Production Line Ready: Can be fully integrated with drying ovens, automatic painting booths, and polyethylene coating lines.
- Automated Handling: Compatible with automatic loading racks and unloading kick-offs, minimising manual labour and crane usage.
- Versatile Speed: Transport speed is fully adjustable to match the cycle times of upstream or downstream processes.
Key Features & Customisation
- Wide Range Capacity: One of the few systems capable of processing everything from 15mm instrument tubing to 1.6-meter water mains.
- Frequency Control: Turbines can be equipped with frequency regulators to adjust impact energy, preventing deformation on thinner-walled pipes.
- Robust Construction: Built to withstand the heavy wear of round steel shot and steel grit, with ease of maintenance for high-uptime environments.
