Custom Solution Package For North America

Why choose IBIX® systems over conventional blasting equipment in North America?...

•  Lightweight aluminum construction, along with the size, make our systems a very portable, one-man safe operation, cutting down on labor cost (reduced set up and take down, time) and convenience of moving around the project area.

•  Our systems deliver a precise and consistent air and media flow for a smooth surface finish with lower air volume requirements.

•  Air Flow Adjustment from 3 psi (whisper) to 116 psi •  Excellent for soft, delicate surfaces •  Taking off a layer at a time •  Profile 1.5 – 4 MIL depth (coating) •  Bring back to white metal to NACE and SSPC standards.

•  Abrasive fine tune Valve Adjustment •  Reduces amount of media used, saving the operator money

•  Accessories supporting systems •  Lance (3 foot gun) – Allows the operator to stand and spray, man lift. •  Nozzle (1.5 - 15mm) – Economical to production

•  Use less media •  More precise •  Smaller spaces

•  Backpack – Lightweight elevated places •  Vacuum Brush – Attached to a shop vac for recycling media and easy cleanup (inside work projects)

•  Minimal dusting improves health and safety for the operator and the environment using WET shroud. •  IBIX® North America supports and supplies media that is also VOC free! •  Effective on virtually any surface:

Concrete Aluminum Composite Materials Masonry Wood Glass Stone Steel Marble

IBIX® North America recently had the great pleasure of attending the Gillette Children’s Specialty Healthcare “Come Fly with Me” gala in St. Paul,

Minnesota.

Over $170,000 was raised for the build-out of a technology room to help kids that are recovering from spinal cord injury, brain injury, or major surgery.

There was an incredible array of amazing cars, boats, and airplanes. Among these was the last flying FaireyGannet XT572, aka “Janet”.

She was displayed beautifully as IBIX® being her sponsor. We are proud to announce that "Janet" won “Best in Air”. We would like to especially thank ShannanHendricks and Harry Odonefor allowing us to be a part of Janet’s extended life span so “history can continue to remain a living reality instead

of just a fading memory”.

You can find more information on “Janet” at www.wingsofsteelfoundation.org

FaireyGannet Reference:

“We are very proud to be able to share "Janet" with everyone especially supporting such great causes. Thanks to IBIX® Surface Technologies which we class as the best surface preparation equipment on the market which we use supporting our restorations, we are able to bring history back to life again in all its glory. Without a doubt, equipment that produces amazing results!!!!”

Urban Cleanliness & Refurbishment

IBIX® is the reference technology for removing graffiti from stone, aluminum and glass surfaces with the use of ecological cleaning material and

vaporized water.

This is done without using aggressive

chemical products which makes it safe for

disposal.

Helix®

Making Helix® the most suitable system for intervention on surfaces of artistic and architectural prestige to date due to it’s use of extremely low pressures under which the equipment can operate, the system is able to preserve the surface patina with no risk of uncontrolled abrasion to the surfaces. Low Pressure:

•  Down to 0.2 bars (the equivalent of a whisper)

•  Delicacy of the jet (helical vortex) CH operators are able to rely on IBIX® systems for any media cleaning procedure. The new Helix® system provides a winning solution for all those interventions where helical air-vortex media cleaning systems are specified to ensure total delicacy and respect of historical surfaces.

Helix® (continued) HELIX® provides, for the same nozzle size, an

increased tangential contact area. The action of the media per surface unit is maintained consistent

and calibrated.

This makes it possible to: •  Increase the distance between

the operator and the surface

•  Minimize invasiveness without losing the evenness and

effectiveness of the cleaning

•  Avoids the operator from having to make constant corrections

which can result in the loss of the layers to be conserved

Operator’s Guide

The operation of the IBIX® Systems are simple and consist of 3 parts:

•  Pressure Regulator •  Media Flow Adjustment

•  Motor Compressor

Pressure Regulator

The pressure can vary from 0.2 (3 psi) to 8 bar (130 psi)

•  Turn the regulator clockwise to increase the

pressure •  Turn the regulator counter-clockwise to decrease

the pressure

Media Flow Adjustment

1. Start with the flow control (abrasive) valve fully closed. To get the proper adjustment, turn the knob of the media screw until

the media begins to come out.

2. Turn the knob counter-clockwise half of a turn and the adjustment will be optimal.

Turn the knob clockwise to shut off the flow of the cleaning media.

Turn the knob counter-clockwise to increase the flow of the

cleaning media.
