Reduce cleaning time up to 50% - fast and better cleaning, - reduction of damage to equipment and resulting scrap product
Typical manual cleaning methods require cool down, disassembly, unproductive hours of messy hand cleaning or bead blast cleaning, and then reassembly. In addition, most traditional cleaning methods are not fully effective and often result in damage to the part or equipment.
The major issue for the foundry and forging industries is the downtime caused when cleaning permanent aluminum moulds, core box vents, semi-solid castings and die casting machines.
Dry Ice Blasting offers significant improvement in cleaning times (up to 50%) as well as reduction of damage to equipment and resulting scrap product.
As Dry Ice Blasting allows a non-conductive, in-place method to clean parts, even touch-up cleanings are safe and easy.
