Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do you offer jobsite demonstrations?

    Demos: We encourage you to attend one of our technology demonstration days to view the equipment in operation. On-site demonstrations are preferred after we determine best fit and agree on fees.
  • What size compressor do I need?

    Compressor size: 150-200 cfm at 125 psi is usually adequate, depending on ancillary equipment
  • How much electricity is required?

    A 30 kVA generator is required, and more may be necessary for paint conditioning depending on project parameters.
  • Do you offer training?

    Yes training is required to qualify your operators and BlastOne trainers will train your team in the shop and then on site
  • Can it paint upside down?

    The QLayers 10Q robot is for vertical surfaces and not for horizontal surfaces
  • How does adhere to surface?

    A Strong Rare-Earth magnets hold the robot to the surface. These are not electromagnets, so electricity failure will not change the attachment force.
  • Hung by cable?

    A safety attachment cable is used as a fall-arrest measure. A cable is used to support the weight of the ductwork and hoses. The fall arrest cable and duct support cable is supported by a rigging system that is designed for each project.
  • What happens if detached from wall while painting?

    If the unit does become detached from the wall, the fall arrest cable stops the unit from falling. The unit will automatically stop painting if the unit detached from the wall.
  • Can it drive over patches and overlaps?

    The unit will drive over and paint over steel joints and welds.
  • How many operators?

    There are typically 3 operators: 1 on the rigging, 1 on the remote, and 1 feeding paint and running the pump.
  • Daily weekly maintenance involved?

    Regular maintenance is required. Daily/weekly maintenance is able to be conducted on site.
