Clemco Munkebo - Portable Abrasive Vacuum Recovery Systems
Your abrasive recovery just got quicker and easier. Removing spent abrasive for disposal or recycling is a pain. And when it takes too long, it eats away your time and profits. In fact, cleanup after a blasting job can run up to 40% of a project’s total cost. Munkebo Portable Abrasive Vacuum and Recovery Systems make recovering spent abrasive quick and easy, saving you time and money. Productivity and Performance: Think of Munkebo Abrasive Vacuum Systems as giant vacuum cleaners. Their recovery hoses easily get to where abrasive is lodged or hidden—places that would be nearly impossible to recover abrasive from with manual or mechanical methods—and Munkebo Systems are faster!
Versatility: Easy to Stage, Transport, and Configure: Munkebo Systems have modular designs, forklift pockets and lifting eyes on all major components, smaller footprints, and lighter weight because they are powered by electric motors. So they are easier to transport, stage, and arrange into different configurations on job sites.
Durability and Convenience: Munkebo Systems are built to last. Our business is not based on replacement parts sales—it is based on manufacturing durable, reliable, low-maintenance equipment that is easy and convenient to use. Our equipment will age better than you.
The Problem
- Manual shoveling, scooping, and sweeping is time-consuming, backbreaking work—and highly inefficient. It’s impossible to get all media out of corners, cracks, and other hard to reach areas, which also can lead to safety and compliance issues.
- Mechanical equipment wears out quickly, leading to costly repairs and unexpected downtime.
Munkebo’s Solution
- Put simply, a Munkebo Abrasive Vacuum System is like a giant vacuum cleaner. Its recovery hose easily gets to where abrasive is lodged or hidden—places that otherwise would be nearly impossible to recover abrasive from—and Munkebo Systems are faster.
- Pneumatic conveyance and gravity move abrasive through a Munkebo System. This design speeds up abrasive recovery and reduces the number of mechanical parts in a system.
The Benefits
- Operators recover more abrasive in less time—increasing your productivity and profit.
- You spend less on equipment repair and maintenance, and have less unexpected downtime.
The Problem
- Space is limited on job sites.
- Access to job sites is obstructed or difficult.
- Equipment may have to be placed far from spent abrasive.
- Equipment is heavy and has a large footprint, making it difficult to transport, stage, and arrange into different configurations.
Munkebo’s Solution
- Munkebo Systems have a small, modular design.
- Each major component is equipped with forklift pockets and lifting eyes.
- The systems are powered by electric motors that weigh less than diesel engines.
- Depending on the system, Munkebo equipment can be placed as far as 80 ft to 1,300 feet from spent abrasive.
The Benefits
- Munkebo Systems are simpler and easier to fit into the space restrictions of a job site.
- Their modular designs, forklift pockets and lifting eyes, and smaller footprints, and because they weigh less than diesel-powered recovery systems, make Munkebo Systems easier to transport, stage, and arrange into different configurations.
- Likewise, Munkebo Systems are easier to load and unload on standard over-the-road trailers.
- With a Munkebo System, you can take on more jobs at a greater variety of locations, allowing you to quickly realize a return on your investment.
