Abrasive removal system ATS series

Overview
The ATS Abrasive Removal Systems (models ATS 2200 and ATS 4400) provide continuous vacuum extraction of used garnet and abrasive slurry from waterjet cutting tanks, enabling uninterrupted cutting operations while cleaning the tank.

Product family
ATS Abrasive Removal Systems — two models designed for industrial waterjet applications: ATS 2200 (works with 2200 Super Sack) and ATS 4400 (works with 4400 Super Sack).

Key features

• Continuous vacuum extraction of abrasive during cutting to avoid production stops for tank cleanouts.
• Designed to interface with dedicated Super Sacks: ATS 2200 → 2200 Super Sack (up to ~2,000 lbs slurry); ATS 4400 → 4400 Super Sack (up to ~4,000 lbs slurry).
• Equipped with Sandpiper HDF2 pneumatic diaphragm pump that runs on shop compressed air—no separate electrical supply required for the pump.
• Patented 6-inch Cross-Flow Separator removes sediment before pump intake, reducing wear and maintenance.
• Specialized abrasive-removal nozzles deliver high removal rates (capable of exceeding 1 ton per hour depending on conditions).
• Rigid steel frame engineered for continuous industrial use.
• Operation modes: manual extraction or optional hands-free sludge removal with in-tank pipe kit and cycle timer (accessories sold separately).

Compatibility and system integration

• Designed to integrate with abrasive management components (storage hoppers, electronic metering) to maintain consistent abrasive supply and enable recycling or disposal workflows.
• Compatible with KMT components such as storage hopper KMT 500 V, FEEDLINE V metering, and IDE® diamond nozzles to optimize abrasive consumption.

Advantages

• Makes continuous production possible by eliminating downtime for tank cleaning.
• Reduces maintenance and pump repair costs through the Cross-Flow Separator.
• High-capacity removal supports longer production runs and more stable abrasive handling.
