About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

ATHI Group Announces Release of New Automatic Sandblasting Machine Series

QINGDAO, China - September 17, 2025 - ATHI Group, a shot blasting machine manufacturer with 30 years of industry experience, announced today the release of its new automatic sandblasting machine series. The announcement comes as the company continues to expand its surface treatment equipment portfolio for global industrial markets.

The new automatic sandblasting machine series represents ATHI's latest development in surface preparation technology. The equipment is designed to remove oxide scale, residual salts, and surface burrs from various industrial components. According to company specifications, the machines are engineered for applications including painting preparation, electroplating processes, and other finishing operations.

"We have developed this automatic sandblasting machine series to meet the growing demand for automated surface treatment solutions," said a company spokesperson. "The equipment incorporates our three decades of manufacturing experience in both shot blasting machine and sand blasting machine production."

ATHI operates as both a shot blasting machine manufacturer and sand blasting machine manufacturer, serving clients across 59 countries. Its manufacturing plant in Qingdao is 20,000 square meters with over 200 employees and engineers.

The series of automatic sandblasting machines consists of several models used in industrial applications. The machines have automated material handling systems and programmable control interfaces. The equipment will work on workpieces of various sizes and materials, including castings, forgings, and fabricated components.

Technical specifications indicate the machines operate using compressed air systems to propel abrasive materials against workpiece surfaces. The automated systems include material recovery and recycling capabilities, along with dust collection systems to maintain workplace environmental standards.

ATHI has participated in the development of international standards for surface treatment equipment. The company holds ISO9001, ISO14001, CE, and TUV certifications for its manufacturing processes. Company records show ATHI maintains 30 patents related to surface treatment technology.

The shot blasting machine manufacturer has structured its operations through three divisions: ATHI Foundry, ATHI International Trading Company, and HaiB Technology R&D Center. This company structure facilitates the development of equipment, production, and distribution processes of the company globally.

The automatic sandblasting machine series is used in industrial processes such as automotive component finishing, aerospace parts finishing, marine equipment servicing, and general factory finishing. The equipment has been designed to be compatible with the existing production lines or as standalone systems.

"Our sand blasting machine manufacturing experience has informed the development of these automated systems," the spokesperson noted. "Our global customer base takes input in the machines and projects the new industry needs of efficiency and environmental performance."

The company's global presence includes installations across North America, Europe, Asia, and other regions. ATHI provides technical support services, including equipment installation, operator training, and maintenance programs for its shot blasting machine and sand blasting machine products.

Installation services for the automatic sandblasting machine series include site preparation assessment, equipment commissioning, and operator training programs. The company's technical team provides remote support capabilities, including 3D guidance systems developed during the COVID-19 period.

Quality control processes at ATHI's manufacturing facility include component testing, system integration verification, and performance validation procedures. The company reports a 98.7% customer satisfaction rate across its equipment portfolio.

The automatic sandblasting machine series joins ATHI's existing product line, which includes hook-type shot blasting machines, roller conveyor systems, wire mesh belt equipment, and various foundry machinery. The company also manufactures painting equipment and coating lines for complete surface treatment solutions.

ATHI's research and development activities continue through its HaiB Technology R&D Center, established in 2019. The center focuses on advancing surface treatment technologies and developing new equipment solutions for emerging industrial requirements.

The company expects to begin deliveries of the automatic sandblasting machine series in the fourth quarter of 2025. Initial production will focus on standard configurations, with custom designs available through ATHI's engineering services.

For technical specifications, pricing information, or installation services related to the automatic sandblasting machine series, interested parties can contact ATHI Group through their official communication channels.
