Dry Ice Blasting, is a process in which dry ice particles are propelled at high velocities to impact and clean a surface. The equipment we use accelerates the particles using compressed air. This process is similar to sand blasting without the costly and messy clean up.
Dry Ice Blasting (or CO2 blasting) is a fast, easy and cost-effective cleaning method that uses high-velocity dry ice (or solid CO2) pellets to clean surfaces without damaging equipment or creating new waste streams.
Because of the temperature difference between the dry ice particles (-109°Fahrenheit / -78.3°Centigrade) and the surface being treated, thermal shock occurs during the dry ice blasting process. This breaks down the bond between the substrate and the contaminant to be removed from it. The dry ice vaporizes on impact, so no secondary waste stream is created.
A number of industries worldwide have discovered the advantages of this precision cleaning process. Applications range from heavy slag removal to delicate semiconductor and circuit board cleaning. Dry Ice Blasting is a dry, non abrasive, non-conductive process that leaves no residual media to clean up. It’s the pure and powerful solution for your cleaning and maintenance needs.

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 cleaning are safe and easy.
Power Generation professionals know that one key to peak performance is clean electrical equipment. However, the demand to keep the equipment running often leads to deferred cleaning and maintenance, reduced efficiency, and in some cases, outages caused by flashover.
Dry Ice Blasting is the most effective, safest and cleanest way of cleaning power generation equipment. From small electric motors too power stations, all can be cleaned with out the use of chemicals. Dry Ice Blasting provides a non-conductive, environmentally responsible cleaning process that allows equipment to be cleaned in-place, without cool down or disassembly. In addition, the outage time typically needed for cleaning can be reduced up to 65%.
Carbon, grease and dirt contribute to low meg readings as well as catastrophic equipment failure. Dry ice cleaning removes these contaminants improving readings and restores machine efficiency.
Dry Ice Blasting has met the Electrical Industry’s challenge of operating efficiency and uptime. Dry Ice Blasting, a non-conductive process, can restore both rotating and stationary electrical equipment to peak performance with dramatically shorter outages. Due to growing demand for electricity, some equipment such as pad mounted switch gears and substations go without maintenance. This results in less efficient operation and unplanned outages caused by flashover.
Dry Ice Blasting cleans electrical generating equipment to maintain reliable operation. Dirty electrical apparatus will overheat and be prone to arc-overs. Downtime for cleaning means lower plant productivity. Dry Ice Blasting also allows the units to be cleaned in place without damage to cables and insulation, and no explosive solvents.
Dry Ice Blasting of small electronic components is simple, safe and fast. Dry ice cleaning does not require solvents to remove and surface residue material from the components as they move along the assemble line. There is no damage to their plated surfaces. Dry Ice Blasting will also remove masking wax used in specialized plating processes.
Dry Ice Blasting works for all presses: Flexography, gravure, offset and web-fed. Even the finest of plates in the gravure process may be cleaned by using dry ice cleaning.
Residue ink, grease, lint from paper, and other built-up coatings can affect registration of the printed material. These can be easily removed with dry ice blast cleaning.
The dry ice cleaning may be accomplished in place, minimal changes to the equipment are needed.
No additional chemical or secondary waste is produced using dry ice cleaning. Dry Ice cleaning makes the toughest locations cleanable. Dry Ice Blasting saves time and money, from days to hours per press.
After a dry ice blast cleaning, a simple wipe down of non-painted parts, and the presses are ready to earn more profit.
Clean mould cavities are a major concern for plastic part manufacturers in maintaining today’s high quality standards. The build-up of unwanted surface residues from either the product mix itself, mould releases or the labeling process can create various problems, ranging from product release (“knock out”) to inferior product quality and possible damage to tools.
Flash on the product also creates challenges for manufacturers. Mould halves leave a parting line in the final product, and that parting line, or flash, must be removed for product quality.Traditional cleaning and deflashing methods involve tedious and ineffective manual processes using chemicals and hand tools. The Dry Ice Blasting cleaning process provides a non- abrasive and environmentally responsible method that allows moulds and products to be cleaned in a fraction of the time, allowing increased cycles between preventive maintenance. In addition, moulds can be cleaned hot and in-place, with out water, chemicals or creation of secondary waste.
Today, even the back 1/3 of the blow-mold surface and the entire deep-cavity injection molds used to make test-tube shaped slugs are cleaned by dry ice blasting whereas it used to have to be cleaned by hand.
Polyurethane, dirt, soot, grease, and oil build up in production facilities cause machinery to function improperly and can create an unsafe working environment.
Often, traditional cleaning methods to remove Polyurethane, such as scraping and wiping with chemical solvents, are delayed as long as possible to avoid lengthy production downtime.
Dry Ice Blasting process allows safe and effective online cleaning in a fraction of the time of traditional methods.
Dry Ice Blasting allows installed equipment to be cleaned without the need to remove it from the production line. Polyurethane, grease, gluing and oil are all removed without contamination.
Dry Ice Blasting is electrically safe, it will not short-circuit motors or switches, and there are no flammable or explosive by products.
