Why does the new equipment not do as much work as the old equipment?
a. worn nozzle on old equipment. The systems are not comparable.
Undersize hose, nozzle or air pressure issue
Better media metering: More media does not equal more productivity. A very common misconception is the belief that “I need to see a lot of media coming out of the nozzle or I’m not using enough.” In reality, flooding the nozzle with excessive abrasive actually reduces productivity. It wastes media, slows down the velocity of the particles (resulting in a lower mil profile), and causes the media to collide with itself instead of effectively striking the workpiece
