Floor shot blaster is a key device in ground and pavement processing. It excels at handling concrete, metal surfaces, as well as special pavements like roads, bridges, and airport runways. Through scientific projectile spraying and intelligent recovery mechanisms, it effectively solves issues such as stain residues, surface aging, and insufficient adhesion, laying a solid surface treatment foundation for various construction projects and serving as a reliable assistant in improving project quality.

From the compact YG-270(Single) for small precision work to the powerful YG-850(Double) for large areas, these parameters ensure the floor bead blaster works stably in various environments, offering efficient surface treatment.
A complete floor shot blasting working system includes two core units: the floor shot blaster main machine and the supporting dust collector. Both units work together to realise efficient surface blasting, automatic shot recycling, and dust collection.
Floor Shot Blaster Main Machine
Its key assemblies are listed below:
Blast wheel motor: Provides power to drive the blast wheel for high-speed shot projection.
Electric control box: Central control unit for startup, shutdown, speed adjustment, and status monitoring of the whole machine.
Travel motor: Controls the forward movement and travelling speed of the shot blaster to adapt to different blasting requirements.
Control cage: Adjusts the ejection angle of steel shot to ensure the blasting area and blasting strength are stable.
Blast wheel: The core working component that accelerates steel shot and impacts the concrete or steel substrate.
Shot hopper: Stores steel shot and feeds shot steadily into the blast wheel circulation system during continuous operation.
Matched Dust Collector
The dust collector cooperates with the shot blaster to capture dust and fine debris generated during blasting, meeting environmental protection requirements. It consists of the following parts:
Fan: Creates negative pressure suction to draw dust and fine residues from the blasting chamber.
Air compressor: Supplies compressed air for pulse backflushing to clean filter cartridges automatically.
Filtration system: Uses filter cartridges to separate dust particles from airflow.
Dust storage system: Collects filtered dust and waste residues for easy, centralised cleaning and disposal.
floor bead blaster for concrete surface preparation
The concrete floor bead blaster stands out in processing for these advantages:
Multi-scenario adaptability: It works in road-bridge waterproofing (boosting waterproof layer adhesion), airport runway degluing (ensuring anti-slip), tunnel and high-speed rail waterproofing. It removes local oil stains, improves surface texture, and enhances anti-slip performance for factory and commercial floors.
Precise operation, better efficiency: It treats local areas like wheel tracks, no need for full-area work. For road repairs, this reduces workload, saving resources and improving efficiency.
Easy and fast start: No complex preparation. After road closure, it starts working. Useful for municipal repairs and small renovations, saving preparation time.
Fast processing, on schedule: It works quickly. YG-850(Double) cleans ≥600 m²/h of concrete, pushing large projects forward on time.
Controllable, ensuring follow-up: It doesn’t change original surface elevation, critical for roads and runways, not affecting subsequent work.
Eco-friendly, cost-saving: It produces little waste. With automatic projectile recycling (reusing intact ones), it’s low-carbon and cuts material costs, balancing economy and environment.
YG supplies a full range of pavement and floor preparation equipment to form one-stop site solutions. Alongside floor bead blasters, we provide small road rollers, asphalt crack fillers, road marking machines, and so on. They are widely used for pavement repair, floor renovation, and waterproofing projects.
Notes for Using a Bead Blaster For Concrete Floors
To ensure the bead blaster for concrete floors runs safely and efficiently:
Pre-operation preparation: Check the device. Ensure projectile pipes are clear, motors work, and dust removal functions. Choose proper projectiles (per suggested diameter) and fill the hopper based on surface type.
Standard operation: Start dust removal first, then projectile spraying to absorb dust. Move steadily; avoid long stays in one area to prevent over-wearing. Slow down or stop for bumps/cracks to protect quality.
Post-operation maintenance: Stop projectile spraying first. After recycling projectiles, turn off dust removal and walking systems. Clean residues, check pipes and impellers, replace damaged parts. Lubricate moving parts and store in a dry, ventilated place to extend life.
Q1: What steel shot is suitable for floor shot blasters?
Round steel shot is the standard choice. Follow our recommended size range for each model; larger shot delivers deeper profile while smaller shot gives finer, more uniform texture.
Q2: Can I use a regular dust collector instead of the matched one?
We strongly recommend our supporting automatic backflush vacuum cleaner. Ordinary dust extractors lack sufficient suction and backflush performance, which may cause dust leakage and shot recycling failure.
Q3: What surface profile can be achieved after concrete shot blasting?
Normally adjustable within 20–80 μm. We can adjust parameters to meet your specification for waterproofing, epoxy coating, or anti-slip overlay.
Q4: Is shot blasting completely dust-free?
It is far cleaner than open sandblasting. With a properly connected, matched dust collector, most dust is captured; minor residual dust still requires operator PPE protection.
Q5: Can one machine blast both concrete and steel plates?
Yes, but you need to adjust shot size, travel speed, and blast parameters. Steel plate rust removal usually requires larger shot and slower travel speed.
