Patented technology
MBX Systems are different from conventional surface treatment systems in that MBX Systems are based on several physical principles. Flexible brush-belts are inserted loosely into a cage-like adaptor system and secured with safety arms. The centrifugal force created by rotation causes the brush-belt to tighten and work as if suspended on a cushion of air.
Advantages: | | | |
Vibration-free operation:
| The vibration of the wire bristles that occurs when the bristles strike the target surface is absorbed by the air-cushion. The bristles re-strike the target surface at rest (without vibration). This achieves the maximum kinetic energy.
|
|

|
MBX brush-belt technology
MBX Belts consist of individual, U-shaped crimped wire bundles anchored in a polyamide fabric. Made of spring steel, the wires have hardened tips that strike the target surface individually during rotation.
Advantages:
|
High
safety level:
| The U-shaped anchor points of the individual crimped bundles prevent wire bristles from being thrown clear.
|
No heat development:
| Avoid toxic fumes and no smearing during the removal of sticky materials
(e.g. removal of underbody coatings in the automotive industry).
|
No grinding:
| No removal of healthy material, no deformations.
|
Flexibility:
| High degree of adaptability when working on contoured areas or areas with sharp edges.
|
Optimal performance:
| Because of their design, each wire tip strikes the target surface twice per rotation.
|
Long
service life: | Specially hardened wire tips with a hardness up to
68 HRC (Rockwell hardness) provide for a level of hardness never before achieved with conventional brush technology.

FLEXIBLE SELECTION OF BRUSH BELTS TO MATCH DIFFERENT MATERIALS -
AND "THE TRICK WITH THE KNEE"
Stainless steel wires for:
| All alloys, e.g. aluminium, stainless steel, brass, copper-nickel.
|
Spring steel wires for:
| All materials.
|
Wire thickness:
| Depending on the application, from
0.3 to 0.9 mm diameter. |
Wire tip form: | |
| (straight bristle with or without hardened tips - up to 68 HRC)
| Uniform, smooth surface structure.
|
(angled bristle -similar to a knee-,
with or without ground and hardened tips - up to 68 HRC).
|
Surface structure as if sandblasted, peak-to-valley heights up to
75 microns / 3 mils. Peak-to-valley heights of 75 microns / 3 mils solve all adhesion problems in adhesive technology and provide for an exceptional adhesive substrate for tinning, galvanizing, application of fillers, and the new application of underbody coatings, compounds, primers, and coatings.

MBX Vinyl Zapper - "The rotating toothed eraser wheel", patented
For the removal of self-adhesive foils and materials,
wide-area decoration, adhesive residue on decorative strips and
lettering on OEM-painted surfaces
made of metal, aluminium, glass, fibreglass (gel coats) -
and most amazing:
NO PAINT DAMAGE.
The centrifugal force created by rotation makes the MBX Vinyl Zapper work as if suspended on a cushion of air.
 Advantages:
|
Faster working speeds of up to 3,500 rpm
|
Conventional rubber eraser wheels operate only at circa 1,500 rpm. |
No paint damage,
no smearing despite
speeds of
3,500 rpm
| Toothed wheel design.
|
Easy handling
|
Vibration-free, smooth running
(compare a solid rubber tire with an air-filled tire).
|
Increased performance
| The working surface of the MBX Vinyl Zapper is strongly enlarged by the application of pressure to the work surface. This improves performance (compare to a car tire containing only a small amount of air). |
| Long service life | Wide construction. |

MBX Bristle drive unit
Easy handling, lightweight - 1.1 kilograms, high torque, safe to use!
Specially developed for the MBX brush-belt and MBX Vinyl Zapper systems.
The high output rpm of the compressed-air turbine (21,000 rpm) is reduced to 3,500 rpm by means of a planetary gear and toothed belt; torque increases. This gives our MBX pneumatic drive units an optimised power profile. MBX brush-belts and MBX eraser wheels work as a direct extension to the drive shaft, i.e., there is no lateral centre of gravity and MBX drive units operate in-line. Work in hard-to-reach areas or in the removal of tough, thick, sticky materials (e.g. compounding materials, underbody corrosion) with optimal ventilation.
MBX drive units are also available as electric versions!
