<h2 class="wp-block-heading">From uniform blasting to dynamic process control</h2>



<p>In modern glass processing, there is a growing demand for more complex and customized surface finishes.</p>



<p>In this context, <strong>Multishading</strong> represents an evolution of traditional sandblasting processes.<br>Developed for <strong>Mistral EV+ automatic sandblasting machines</strong>, it introduces dynamic pressure control to achieve advanced shading effects.</p>



<p>Unlike constant-pressure systems, Multishading enables <strong>controlled gradients directly within the process</strong>.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Multi-axis pressure control</h2>



<p>The core of Multishading lies in its ability to modulate blasting pressure along the movement of the gun.</p>



<p>The glass is always positioned on its longer side. However, the system adjusts pressure:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>vertically</li>



<li>horizontally</li>
</ul>



<p>As a result, shading effects are generated by process control rather than glass positioning.</p>



<p>This allows precise and repeatable transitions across the surface.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Linear, radial and concentric shading effects</h2>



<p>With continuous pressure modulation, Multishading enables a wide range of finishes:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>linear gradients</li>



<li>smooth transitions across large surfaces</li>



<li>radial shading</li>



<li>concentric patterns</li>
</ul>



<p>This flexibility opens new possibilities for both industrial production and architectural glass design.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Optimized processing of circular glass elements</h2>



<p>One of the key advantages of Multishading is the ability to process circular geometries efficiently.</p>



<p>Traditionally, these applications require manual adjustments.<br>However, dynamic pressure control allows the process to adapt to the shape of the glass.</p>



<p>This results in:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>improved surface uniformity</li>



<li>higher quality finishes</li>



<li>reduced manual intervention</li>
</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Integration into industrial workflows</h2>



<p>Multishading is designed for industrial environments.</p>



<p>It allows manufacturers to:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>standardize complex processes</li>



<li>reduce operator dependency</li>



<li>ensure consistent results</li>
</ul>



<p>Moreover, it expands production capabilities without changing the machine setup.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Mistral EV+: a platform for advanced glass processing</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" width="1920" height="1080" src="https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/M260EV-Sanblasting-Glass-Machine-1.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-24398" srcset="https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/M260EV-Sanblasting-Glass-Machine-1.jpg 1920w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/M260EV-Sanblasting-Glass-Machine-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/M260EV-Sanblasting-Glass-Machine-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/M260EV-Sanblasting-Glass-Machine-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/M260EV-Sanblasting-Glass-Machine-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w" sizes="(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px" /></figure>



<p>Multishading is part of the technological evolution of the <strong>Mistral EV+ series</strong>.</p>



<p>By integrating advanced pressure control, it enables a more flexible and scalable approach to glass surface processing.</p>

<p>In the glass processing industry, every investment directly impacts a company’s competitiveness. <strong>Purchasing an industrial sandblasting machine</strong> is not merely a technical decision, but a strategic one that influences process quality, production efficiency, and medium- to long-term growth.</p>



<p>In many cases, however, the choice does not necessarily fall on a new machine. In recent years, interest in <strong>used glass sandblasting machines</strong> has grown significantly, particularly among companies looking to expand their production capacity while containing initial investment costs—without compromising process reliability.</p>



<p>The real question to ask when evaluating the purchase of an <a href="https://fratellipezza.com/en/mistral-ev-en/">automatic</a> or <a href="https://fratellipezza.com/en/ghibli-en/">manual</a> sandblasting machine is not simply, “Is buying used worthwhile?”, but rather: “<strong>How much operational value does a sandblasting machine retain</strong> over time, and how will it fit into my production strategy?”</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Fratelli Pezza certified used equipment: Sandblasting machines designed to last</strong></h2>



<p>A glass sandblasting machine retains its value only if it is built on a structure designed <strong>for long-term durability.</strong></p>



<p>Structural robustness, industrial-grade components, continuous spare parts availability, and consistent technical support are key factors in ensuring an extended machine lifecycle. These principles guide the design and manufacturing approach of <strong>Fratelli Pezza</strong>, which <strong>develops sandblasting and marking machines engineered for process repeatability and long-term performance stability</strong>.</p>



<p>Under normal operating and maintenance conditions, <strong>a Fratelli Pezza sandblasting machine</strong> can:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>retain approximately 50% to 70% of its value within the first 8–10 years;</li>



<li>maintain concrete operational value even beyond this period, when properly supported and, where applicable, upgraded.</li>
</ul>



<p>Long-term value is not incidental, but the result of strategic design choices and a durability-oriented engineering philosophy that has always distinguished our work.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>What determines the value of a second-hand Glass Sandblasting Machine?</strong></h2>



<p>Naturally, not all second-hand sandblasting machines are equivalent.</p>



<p>The real value of a <strong>used glass sandblasting machine</strong> depends on several technical factors, including:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>available&nbsp;operating&nbsp;features&nbsp;and machine&nbsp;productivity&nbsp;level;&nbsp;</li>



<li>current&nbsp;and future&nbsp;availability&nbsp;of&nbsp;critical&nbsp;components&nbsp;and&nbsp;spare&nbsp;parts;&nbsp;</li>



<li>a control system that is not technologically outdated;</li>



<li>a level of wear consistent with the machine’s age and type of use.</li>
</ul>



<p>When&nbsp;key&nbsp;components&nbsp;become&nbsp;obsolete or&nbsp;unavailable&nbsp;on the market, the&nbsp;machine’s&nbsp;value&nbsp;may&nbsp;decline&nbsp;significantly: it may still function, but fail to guarantee production continuity in the medium term.</p>



<p><strong>Ongoing technical support</strong> is what truly makes the difference in the <strong>second-hand sandblasting machine market </strong>and in preserving long-term machine value. For this reason, Fratelli Pezza provides qualified and efficient after-sales service.</p>



<p><strong>Accessories and spare parts are supplied promptly</strong>, thanks to a wide and consistently available stock of listed items. This ensures operational continuity for the customer and greater long-term technical stability, allowing companies to operate our sandblasting machines without concerns about obsolescence.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>When to choose a used Glass Sandblasting Machine</strong></h2>



<p>A <strong>used Fratelli Pezza sandblasting machine</strong> is not an alternative to new equipment, but a complementary solution suitable for specific production contexts, such as:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>targeted production capacity expansions;</li>



<li>dedicated lines for specialized or niche processing;</li>



<li>start-up of new glass processing activities;</li>



<li>budget optimization during business transition phases.</li>
</ul>



<p>In these cases, certified used equipment provides access to proven and high-performance industrial technology with a contained investment aligned with actual production needs.</p>



<p>Choosing a used sandblasting machine therefore means assessing not only its purchase price, but also its long-term operational value. It is essential to distinguish between equipment that is simply functional and equipment that is technically sustainable, properly supported, and consistent with your production environment.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>New and Used Sandblasting Machines: Which solution is right for your company?</strong></h2>



<p><strong>Integrating new and used sandblasting machines strategically</strong> means adopting a comprehensive view of the equipment lifecycle.</p>



<p>Both solutions address different needs, yet share the same core principle: ensuring <strong>production process reliability and high-quality finishing results</strong>. Currently selected and inspected machines represent concrete opportunities for companies seeking reliability and production continuity, while the new equipment range remains the benchmark for those aiming at maximum innovation, integration into modern production flows, and access to Industry 4.0 and 5.0 incentive programs.</p>



<p>For this reason, a preliminary technical evaluation remains the first step in identifying the solution that best aligns with your production objectives.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>In the <strong>high-end entrance door</strong> and premium window sector, glass is taking on an increasingly strategic role. In many cases, it is no longer just a functional component but a decorative surface capable of adding significant value to any environment or building and of defining the style of an entire collection. Today, the <strong>quality and type of glass surface finish</strong>—soft satin effects, geometric patterns, shaded gradients, permanent markings and custom textures—directly influence product perception and brand identity.</p>



<p>For this reason, a growing number of manufacturers are increasingly choosing to bring glass processing in-house, performing all finishing and decoration operations internally without relying on external suppliers. This approach ensures total control over design and every stage of the production process, guaranteeing industrial repeatability, precision and greater competitiveness on the market.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1920" height="1080" src="https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/porte-e-serramenti-in-vetro-sabbiati.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-24419" srcset="https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/porte-e-serramenti-in-vetro-sabbiati.jpg 1920w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/porte-e-serramenti-in-vetro-sabbiati-300x169.jpg 300w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/porte-e-serramenti-in-vetro-sabbiati-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/porte-e-serramenti-in-vetro-sabbiati-768x432.jpg 768w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/porte-e-serramenti-in-vetro-sabbiati-1536x864.jpg 1536w" sizes="(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px" /></figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>The use of glass in premium entrance doors</strong></h2>



<p>In contemporary design, glass increasingly interacts with materials such as aluminium, steel and composites, helping to create entrance systems that are aesthetically coherent and perfectly balanced. Soft satin finishes, calibrated opacity, geometric patterns and micro-textures make it possible to obtain elegant, distinctive surfaces that enhance both high-end entrance doors and premium window systems. Permanent marking adds an additional level of customization: logos, house numbers and graphic elements can be integrated into the glass in a discreet, precise and long-lasting way, becoming a true signature of the brand.</p>



<p>Alongside the aesthetic component, the <strong>need for protection and durability</strong> is becoming increasingly significant. Next-generation <a href="https://fratellipezza.com/en/protective-coat/">coatings</a> play a key role in this respect: they reduce dirt absorption, protect glass surfaces from atmospheric agents and simplify cleaning operations, keeping the glass bright for longer. The result is a product that maintains its aesthetic value over time and requires fewer post-sale interventions—offering tangible benefits for both manufacturers and end customers.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Why more companies are choosing automatic sandblasting</strong></h2>



<p>Manufacturers of high-end doors see automatic sandblasting as a true accelerator of quality and productivity. The ability to achieve <strong>flawless, repeatable and highly sophisticated surfaces</strong> has redefined the role of glass not only in exterior doors but also in designer interior doors and window systems with satin or decorated glass panels. Compared to outsourced or semi-manual processes, <a href="https://fratellipezza.com/en/2025/05/27/glass-sandblasting-machines-a-guide-for-choosing-between-manual-and-automatic-models/">automatic sandblasting</a> offers:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Repeatability and uniformity of results, essential for premium collections.</li>



<li>Direct control over decorations, including shading, transitions and selective privacy areas.</li>



<li>Reduced production times, thanks to smoother internal workflows.</li>



<li>Large-scale customization, which the market increasingly requires.</li>
</ul>



<p>The combination of sandblasting, permanent marking and protective coatings allows manufacturers to offer doors and windows with higher-performing surfaces—more elegant and more consistent with the brand’s identity.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>RL Series: the sandblasting machine designed for door and window production lines</strong></h2>



<p>The <strong>RL Series</strong> is designed to optimise the sandblasting process for companies producing entrance doors, interior glass doors and high-end window systems. Unlike standard models that operate from left to right, the RL operates from right to left, enabling more efficient integration into production lines that require opposite directions.</p>



<p>This configuration makes it possible to place an RL next to a standard sandblaster, creating a symmetrical layout that facilitates loading, processing and transfer without interruption. When integrated with vertical washers or other machines for glass preparation and finishing, the RL helps create a continuous, well-balanced and space-optimised production flow.</p>



<p>Designed for glass panels of various sizes, it ensures:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>&nbsp;stable material handling</li>



<li>uniform satin finishing and decoration</li>



<li>reduced transfer times</li>



<li>&nbsp;easy operator use</li>



<li>&nbsp;consistent quality across batches of any size</li>
</ul>



<p>For manufacturers producing thousands of doors every year, this translates into greater efficiency, improved ergonomics and perfectly repeatable results.</p>

<p>Every new technology begins with a promise. In the world of decorative glass, laser blasting arrived with all the appeal typical of digital solutions: a non-contact, precise, and “clean” process projected toward the future. For many, it seemed like the decisive step into a new era of glass decoration. Yet, glass remains a complex material, with its own physical and optical balance—one that must be properly understood and managed.</p>



<p>Trade fairs and technological demonstrations always offer a fresh look at the industry’s future potential. However, <strong>daily production tells a different story</strong>: in real-world operations, other factors come into play—process stability, operating costs, machine maintenance, and the adaptability of each technique to different glass types and desired results.</p>



<p>It is based on these parameters that the true effectiveness of a technology can be assessed, enabling companies to make well-informed choices.</p>



<p>If you work in the glass processing industry and want to understand <strong>which is the best technique for decorating glass surfaces</strong>—or what the real <strong>differences are between sandblasting and laser decoration</strong>—keep reading to find out everything you need to know!</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Sandblasting and Laser Decoration: Differences, Costs,and Operation</strong></h2>



<p><strong>Sandblasting is a</strong> <strong>mechanical process</strong>: a flow of abrasive particles mixed with compressed air reshapes the glass surface, creating texture, opacity, and controlled depth.<br>It is a <strong>cold process</strong>, free from thermal stress or optical distortion, and therefore safe for any type of glass — including mirrors, tempered glass, laminated glass, coated, or decorated panels. Once the parameters are set, the process is highly repeatable: the quality remains consistent, setup times are minimal, and no continuous recalibration is required. Maintenance is simple and consumption is limited, thanks to modern abrasive recovery and integrated filtration systems.</p>



<p><strong>Laser blasting</strong>, or <strong>laser decoration</strong>, on the other hand, removes surface layers or coatings through ablation, creating extremely detailed and localized effects. However, this level of precision requires complex management. Every parameter — power, frequency, pulse duration, focus, scanning speed — influences the final result. Each new substrate demands specific testing and calibration, which increases production times and real operating costs. Moreover, mirrors and coated glass may react unevenly to the heat generated by the laser, with potential risks of halos, microcracks, or delamination if parameters are not perfectly optimized.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Aesthetic and Performance Results: A Comparison</strong></h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/led-mirror-button-1024x576.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-24407" srcset="https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/led-mirror-button-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/led-mirror-button-300x169.jpg 300w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/led-mirror-button-768x432.jpg 768w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/led-mirror-button-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/led-mirror-button.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>From an aesthetic standpoint, <strong>sandblasting retains a long-standing advantage</strong> in glass processing. It creates a true satin surface, with a tactile and customizable finish that can range from light shading to deep and uniform effects — even across large surfaces.<br><strong>Laser decoration</strong>, by contrast, primarily alters the reflectivity of the glass rather than its texture: it produces optical contrast but not depth. It excels in micro-engraving and serial decoration but is less suitable for uniform finishes, smooth gradients, or large-scale applications requiring visual continuity.</p>



<p>In terms of <strong>compatibility</strong>, sandblasting can be applied to any type of glass, including treated or coated panels, without the risk of deformation or color alteration.</p>



<p>Laser processing, on the other hand, must be recalibrated each time according to the glass thickness, coatings, and color of the substrate.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Which Should You Choose: Sandblasting or Laser Decoration?</strong></h2>



<p>In today’s production environment, <strong>automatic sandblasting</strong> remains the most <strong>reliable and efficient</strong> solution.</p>



<p><strong>Laser decoration</strong>, while offering a high level of precision, involves higher initial investment, longer cycle times, and more complex maintenance — particularly concerning laser sources and optical systems. Both technologies can deliver excellent results, but in <strong>different contexts</strong>.<br>Laser technology stands out in micro-decoration, traceability, and serial customization, while sandblasting excels in large-format applications and consistent industrial repeatability.</p>



<p>The latest <a href="https://fratellipezza.com/en/2025/05/27/glass-sandblasting-machines-a-guide-for-choosing-between-manual-and-automatic-models/"><strong>automatic sandblasting</strong> systems</a> — such as the <a href="https://fratellipezza.com/mistral-ev/"><strong>Mistral EV+ series</strong></a> by <strong>Fratelli Pezza</strong> — combine digital control, multi-nozzle configurations, and predictive maintenance, merging automated speed with ease of use.</p>



<p>This combination allows manufacturers to achieve artisanal quality, process control, and production continuity, while easily managing high volumes.</p>



<p>Ultimately, <strong>sandblasting remains the most versatile and reliable choice</strong> for those seeking control, uniformity, and lasting aesthetic value.</p>



<p>From architectural glass to LED mirrors and technical surfaces, sandblasting continues to evolve — proving its adaptability across a wide range of applications.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>For those attending Eurasia Glass</strong></h2>



<p>International trade fairs such as <strong>Eurasia Glass 2025</strong> provide a vital meeting point between those exploring new technologies and those testing their reliability in real production.<br>It is precisely within this dialogue between <strong>experimentation and practicality</strong> that the glass industry continues to move forward.</p>



<p>Even without exhibiting at the event, <strong>Fratelli Pezza</strong> remains committed to developing increasingly high-performing solutions in automatic sandblasting — which continues to be the benchmark technique for glass processing — while keeping quality, flexibility, and production continuity at the core of its work.</p>



<p>This is the philosophy that has inspired us for over forty years: <strong>to innovate while maintaining consistent results and safety at every stage of the production process</strong>.</p>

<p><a href="https://fratellipezza.com/en/2025/03/03/complete-guide-to-glass-sandblasting/">Glass sandblasting</a> is not just a decorative technique. It is an advanced, versatile, and sustainable technology, capable of impacting the product, the project, and the overall value. It’s time to rediscover it for what it can truly offer to the glass industry.</p>



<p>This will be the focus of <strong>Michela Pezza</strong>’s official presentation at <a href="https://fratellipezza.com/en/2025/07/24/vitrum-2025-advanced-sandblasting/"><strong>VITRUM 2025</strong></a>, with a talk entitled: <em>“Beyond Decoration: Sandblasting as a Strategic Lever for More Expressive, Functional, and Sustainable Glass</em>. Some glassworks still consider sandblasting as a technique of the past, used exclusively for decoration.</p>



<p>In reality, more and more industry professionals are rediscovering it as a <strong>strategic, sustainable, and indispensable tool</strong> for producing top-quality work with refined and distinctive features. Fratelli Pezza technologies tell a different story: that of a high-performing, technical sandblasting process capable of enhancing both the aesthetics and the functionality of the products on which it is applied.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/decorative-1024x576.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-23704" srcset="https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/decorative-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/decorative-300x169.jpg 300w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/decorative-768x432.jpg 768w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/decorative-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/decorative.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Key Topics of the Talk</strong></h2>



<p>During her presentation, Michela Pezza will showcase <strong>case studies and real-world applications</strong>, with a focus on:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>glass for architecture and contract projects</li>



<li>technical and decorative furniture</li>



<li>glass elements for interior design</li>



<li>packaging and luxury branding</li>



<li>projects with social and inclusive purposes</li>
</ul>



<p>A section will also be dedicated to the <strong>Fratelli Pezza Academy</strong> technical training program, which supports operators, companies, and designers through a concrete learning path on the advanced use of sandblasting, both automatic and manual.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Why Sandblasting Is a Strategic Choice</strong></h2>



<p>Several industrial partners have long recognized the strategic potential of sandblasting, successfully applying it in concrete, functional, and branding-related projects. Choosing sandblasting means adopting an approach that connects the world of design with industrial production, thanks to a technology that is solid, repeatable, and easy to integrate into production lines.</p>



<p>Michela Pezza’s talk will therefore be not just a technical presentation, but also a true reflection on the evolution of a process that is too often underestimated: a call to action for architects, designers, glass processors, and manufacturers.</p>

<p><strong>Efficiency, precision and creative freedom</strong>: these are the three keywords defining the new <strong>Mistral EV+</strong>, the latest generation of <strong>automatic sandblaster</strong> by Fratelli Pezza.</p>



<p>The line, making its debut at <strong>VITRUM 2025</strong> with the <strong>180EV+ model</strong>, marks a <a href="https://fratellipezza.com/en/2025/03/03/complete-guide-to-glass-sandblasting/">significant evolution in glass processing</a>, thanks to the integration of advanced technologies, exclusive features, and intelligent process management.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Mistral EV+: features and potential</strong></h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/AGOSTO-2025-MISTRALEV-1024x576.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-23478" srcset="https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/AGOSTO-2025-MISTRALEV-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/AGOSTO-2025-MISTRALEV-300x169.jpg 300w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/AGOSTO-2025-MISTRALEV-768x432.jpg 768w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/AGOSTO-2025-MISTRALEV-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://fratellipezza.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/AGOSTO-2025-MISTRALEV.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>Born from Fratelli Pezza’s decades of experience in glass sandblasting and marking, the Mistral EV+ was designed to meet the real-world needs of industry professionals: <strong>increased productivity</strong>, <strong>lower consumption</strong>, <strong>ease of use</strong>, and the ability to perform increasingly complex processes in less time.</p>



<p>Suitable <strong>for both artisanal workshops and industrial-scale operations</strong>, the Mistral EV+ line is available in three models (<a href="https://fratellipezza.com/en/mistral-ev-en/">Mistral 120 EV+, 180EV+ and 260EV+</a>), all equipped with:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Up to three automatic guns</strong> for customizable productivity and performance.</li>



<li><strong>Modular extensions</strong>, allowing easy work on large glass sheets without compromising stability.</li>



<li><strong>SandConnection 4.0:</strong> an advanced interconnection system compliant with Industry 4.0 requirements, for remote control and monitoring of production parameters.</li>



<li><strong>MistralApp</strong>: an app that lets you program sandblasting remotely without interrupting the current process.</li>



<li><strong>OptiAir</strong>, an integrated technology that optimizes the use of secondary compressed air, significantly reducing consumption.</li>
</ul>



<p>These features make <strong>the Mistral EV+ automatic sandblasters</strong> not only powerful and versatile, but also <strong>energy-efficient</strong> and fully <strong>integrable into digitized production flows</strong>.</p>



<p>Our machines are the ideal solution for those looking to <strong>expand their production capabilities</strong>, while maintaining <strong>high-quality standards</strong>, precision and the ability to customize each job to suit client needs and expectations.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Perfect Sandblasting and finishes with MultiShading technology</strong></h2>



<p>The true innovation of this series is the <strong>MultiShading technology</strong>, which enables shaded effects and multi-directional decorations with an unprecedented level of control and precision.</p>



<p>Among its operational advantages:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Vertical shading</strong> can be performed without rotating the glass sheet.</li>



<li><strong>circular sandblasting</strong>, ideal for radial decooration.</li>



<li><strong>Concentric or progressive effects</strong> are easily programmable.</li>



<li><strong>Reduced processing times</strong> and optimized operational costs, thanks to intelligent management of movements and abrasive quantities.</li>
</ul>



<p>Thanks to MultiShading technology, sandblasting becomes a <strong>creative and functional tool</strong>, perfect for crafting <strong>balustrades, railings, glass doors, partitions, decorative mirrors</strong> and much more, all with personalized, high-impact finishes.</p>
