Simultaneous removal & profiling
The Cleantech Prepper® Q10 enables optimal coating performance through a programmable and automated process, providing a constant and reliable roughness profile to the substrate. Program the desired roughness and the Q10 delivers a regular peak height and peak density, without safety hazards, dust or loose media. The Q10 can also be integrated into factory-applied coating processes.
- Up to 4x faster than conventional blasting, enabling greater coverage per hour
- 5 million strikes per minute
- Adjustable accelerator bar enables changes to roughness profile
- 1 m² cleaned in 127 seconds
- Dust collection built-in
- Oscillating brushes enable uniform, optimal surface coverage
The Prepper® Q10 for crawling operations treats considerably wider surfaces using only one machine. Available on request and project-specific.
Simultaneous removal & profiling, in one pass
Impact
Bristle tips strike the surface at kinetic energy comparable to abrasive grit-blast media.
Accelerator bar
The patented accelerator bar amplifies tip impact for maximum removal efficiency.
Retraction
Tips retract instantly, creating the anchor profile without smearing, burnishing or heat.
Coating-ready
A clean, profiled, grit-free substrate, comparable to abrasive blasting, 65–85 µm Rz (2.6–3.3 mil), ready to coat.
The power of blasting. None of the fallout.
Grit-free
No loose abrasive, no media, minimal containment.
Blast-comparable cleanliness and anchoring surface profile — without loose abrasives
A verified, coating-ready standard. SSPC-SP 10 / SP 5.
In-service & spot repair
Works live, at height and in confined spaces, no blast pot.
Cold-working
No heat, no smearing, no grit embedment in the substrate.
