Kalo Low-Pressure Blasting Machines for Precise Fine Blasting Applications
The Kalo MiniBlaster systems are compact, low-pressure, microblasting units designed for applications that require a highly controlled blasting effect. The current product line includes the Miniblaster-I with a 0.7-liter tank and the Miniblaster-II with two 0.7-liter tanks. Both units operate in the range of 0.1 to 6 bar and can be adapted to the respective surface and the available compressor using different nozzles.
Typical Applications
✔ Restoration and Historic Preservation
✔ Spot cleaning of facades and stone surfaces
✔ Gentle woodworking
✔ Cleaning small metal parts
✔ Removal of localized contaminants and coatings
✔ Precision surface finishing in workshops and service centers
Miniblaster-I or Miniblaster-II?
The Miniblaster-I is particularly compact and is suitable for applications with a single hopper for abrasive media. The Miniblaster-II has two separate hoppers. This can be useful when different types of abrasive media are required or when two consecutive processing steps are planned without the need for time-consuming retooling.
Adjust the working pressure as needed
With an adjustable operating pressure ranging from 0.1 to 6 bar, the blasting effect can be precisely controlled. For sensitive surfaces, you can start with low energy and gradually increase the pressure. This prevents unnecessary material removal and keeps the process under control.
Important Differences
| Feature | Miniblaster-I | Miniblaster-II |
|---|---|---|
| Container | 1 × 0,7 l | 2 × 0,7 l |
| Working pressure | 0.1–6 bar | 0.1–6 bar |
| Focus | maximum conciseness | Flexible switching between two media |

Here’s what you should look for when making your selection
✔ Sensitivity of the substrate
✔ Required operating pressure
✔ Abrasive media and desired grain size
✔ appropriate nozzle size
✔ Available compressor power ratings
✔ Need for one or two abrasive containers
Nozzle and Compressed Air Supply
Even with compact microblasting units, the nozzle plays a key role in determining air consumption. To ensure a stable blasting process, the compressed air supply should not only meet the nominal demand but also have sufficient reserve capacity. A supply that is too tightly dimensioned leads to pressure drops and uneven blasting results.
FAQ
When is the Miniblaster-II a better choice?
When two abrasive media or two processing steps are regularly required and a changeover should take place as quickly as possible.
Are Kalo devices suitable for delicate surfaces?
Yes. The low operating pressure, starting at 0.1 bar, allows for a very gentle approach to achieving the required blasting effect.
Is it possible to operate at higher pressure?
Yes. Both systems can be operated at up to 6 bar, provided that the substrate, nozzle, abrasive media, and compressed air supply are suitable.
Which nozzle should you choose?
The selection depends on the desired surface coverage rate, the abrasive media, and the available compressed air supply.
