We recently had the privilege of working with the Lightning Association to clean and restore components on XR724 Lightning F.6. We sent one of our Dry Ice Blasting Teams to meet the wonderful people who care for these historic Lightning aircrafts. We carried out a successful clean of the aircraft's undercarriage, helping the association to continue their refurbishment.

The Lightning Association continue to do fantastic work and we are proud to have provided a helping hand.

COMBI72 Heavy Duty Dry Ice Blaster – Remote Control Option

The COMBI72 is a powerful dry ice blaster designed for large-scale cleaning applications. Its two-hose system allows for the use of wider nozzles, offering faster cleaning with controlled low-pressure pellet transport, ensuring minimal dry ice consumption. The second air hose accelerates the pellets to higher speeds than any single hose system, enabling cleaning at long distances (up to 100 meters).

The COMBI72 also features an optional remote-control gun, allowing the operator to adjust the dry ice feed rate, blast pressure & intensity of gun light. As a twin hose unit, the COMBI72 can be upgraded to a COMBI73 by adding a single hose gun, making it a highly versatile blasting system.

Applications
• Ideal for blasting at height or in locations where the work face is distant from the blaster.

Benefits
• Robust design & Advanced hopper agitation
• Large 30kg hopper
• Up to 16 bar blast pressure
• Ideal for large scale applications due to low pellet consumption
