Our premises are situated across 2 sites, both 1.5 miles from the Sullom Voe Oil Terminal and Shetland Gas Plant, making it an ideal location for projects both on and off site. Our yard is only half a mile from the Shetland Islands TOFT S.G.P Council Ports & Harbours base making it ideal to S.V.T MOSSBANK transport boats lifted with their 70Tonne boat hoist. Our rates are very reasonable and we can accommodate S.I.C numerous boats at any one time. BRAE Workshop & Yard Capacity Est. 1989 LERWICK 430m2 of Blasting and painting facility 15,000m2 Yard capacity To add to our blast facilities we have recently designed and installed a new blast enclosure which allows larger projects to be carried out under controlled conditions through to completion. This is 90m2 of heated blast room with automated grit recovery and dust extraction. Located directly opposite one of our spray shops projects are then transfered to be coated up. In our yard we can undertake any size of project. If it can be transported, we can accommodate it. Here we can perform open blasting using various environmentally friendly abrasives, we have various shelters and scaffolding to provide cover should the project require. In our secure yard we can offer yard space and storage rental to suit your requirements. We can supply various storage facilities, should it be simply laydown area or yard space, storage containers, office & workshop space or more permanent solutions for long term rental. 2 t. 01806 242 160 e. [email protected] w. www.mckimmshotblasting.co.uk PLANT & EQUIPMENT HIRE At Mckimms Limited we have a wide range of plant and equipment to allow us to carry out our work in an efficient and safe manner both on and off-site. We also have a range of equipment and plant available for hire. Our machines are fully certified and fitted with Chalwyn valves and spark arrestors making them safe for petrochemical sites. Some of our hire items include: 60ft cherry picker 40ft cherry picker Electric & Diesel Scissor lifts Mobile Compressors (85 - 1080cfm) Volvo EC25 Mini Digger Telehandler Blast pots (various sizes) Wet / Slurry blast pots Closed circuit vaccum blast unit Hand held vaccum blast machines Air & electric Bristle Blasters Blast Helmets Air Delivery & Blast Hose Pipe internal spin blaster and coating equipment Air driven airless spray units up to 70:1 Petrol driven airless spray units Electric spray units Conventional spray units Battery operated cordless spray gun MK73 Thermal Flame spray system Hot and cold pressure washers (air, electric, diesel & petrol) Mobile dust extraction (air & electric) Air movers Automated grit recovery units Clemvacs Dehumidifiers Water Bowsers Trailers Safety & Work boats t. 01806 242 160 e. [email protected] w. www.mckimmshotblasting.co.uk 3 PRESSURE CLEANING Pressure Cleaning is an essential stage of our painting process. It is important to remove any contaminants from the substrate prior to blasting. Our high pressure machines fitted with a turbo lance are efficient in removing heavy rust or paint prior to blasting in order to cut down on grit used to clean the surface making the job more efficient and cost effective. Some of our pressure washing services include: Boat cleaning Tank internal & external Vehicle cleaning Pipe cleaning Structure cleaning Roof and floor cleaning Moss and dirt removal We have numerous high pressure washers including Petrol, Diesel, Electric and Air driven machines allowing work to be carried out in any circumstance. We also have towable bowsers with or without a pressure washer mounted to the trailer making for an efficient service in remote locations. These are used for heavier applications which include rust removal and surface preparation in any marine or industrial environment. 4 t. 01806 242 160 e. [email protected] w. www.mckimmshotblasting.co.uk ABRASIVE CLEANING At Mckimms Ltd we have facilities and equipment which allow grit blasting to be carried out in most conditions and circumstances, both on and off-site. We use various types of abrasives, from re-usable steel grit to the softest expendable materials, each for different requirements and surface profiles. Our facilities and equipment include: Open Blasting In our extensive yard we can carry out blasting jobs of any size. We have the materials and equipment to completely cover in a project should it require. We also have a number of fully mobile sets of equipment allowing blasting to be carried out on or off site. We have over 30 blast pots ranging from single bag ibex units to 7 bag 2452 units for larger projects. Blast Rooms We have 2 separate heated blast rooms, both with dust extraction, automated grit recovery and cleaning systems. We use re-usable steel grit making for a more cost effective and productive project. 40m2 for projects up to 40ft long 100m2 for larger projects We also have a Blast cabinet used for smaller applications (brackets, washers, wheels, etc). Slurry/Wet Blasting Slurry blast units are ideal for heavy industrial cleaning applications and typical uses include but are not limited to: cleaning of ship hulls, tank internals, offshore maintenance and general steel fabrication. The media is totally saturated in water within the system, fully dampening any airborne fines and dust during the blasting process. This is ideal in areas where excessive dust may be an issue. t. 01806 242 160 e. [email protected] w. www.mckimmshotblasting.co.uk 5 ABRASIVE CLEANING.... Closed Circuit Blasting Eductomatic The Eductomatic is a portable closed circuit suction unit. It provides effective containment of dust and abrasive. A range of heads are available to provide a seal against most surfaces. A 360° swivel blast head enables cleaning at all angles and with a total weight of 3 kg it is light and manoeuvrable. A recyclable abrasive is normally used which is cleaned by the unit, with all dust contained in an attached dust bag. Eductoblast Combining Hodge Clemco’s standard portable blast cleaning equipment and abrasive recovery system creates an efficient closed circuit blast system - The Eductoblast is an air powered unit and is ideally suited for use with metallic abrasives. The collection hopper is particularly useful for safe disposal of lead based coatings. Pipe Internal We have invested in 2 specialist pieces of equipment to allow us to blast pipe internals from 2 inch up to 36 inch. The Hollow Blast will effectively blast pipes from 2 inch up to 12 inch, the abrasive hits the tungsten carbide deflector tip and fans out to clean the 360 degree interior. Our Spin Blast machine will blast pipes from 8 inch up to 36 inch. Complete removal of virtually any contaminant to white metal can easily be achieved, making it a favourite of refineries, pipe liners, chemical producers, water and gas companies. Abrasive Recovery Units Our air operated recovery units provide a cost-effective abrasive recovery solution. With only one major moving part, the recovery unit requires no electrical power, making for an overall more efficient blast cleaning process. It uses a cyclone to separate dust from reusable grit, which falls under gravity into the hopper for safe disposal or re-use. Meanwhile, the dust is drawn into a filter box before being discharged through the Jet Pump as clean air. Mobile Dust Extraction Mckimms have recently invested in a new state of the art 6000cfm fully automated air driven dust extraction system. The sole use of air for the automated reverse jet pulse system and motor eliminates the chance of sparks, making it ideal for refineries or live plants. It is mobile and can easily be moved using the dedicated lifting points by forklift, crane or hi-ab. 6 t. 01806 242 160 e.
