SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING AND MAINTAINING ABRASIVE BLASTING MACHINES

A system and method for managing abrasive blasting may include cumulatively timing a duration of blast media being blown in performing abrasive blasting using an abrasive blasting machine. A cumulative time duration that an operator worked in association with the duration of the blast media being blown may be received. A blasting efficiency ratio may be computed based on the cumulative time duration of the blasting media being blown over a time period, such as a time period that the operator worked. The blasting efficiency ratio may be displayed to a user.
