Dry Ice Blast Cleaning Machine

Introduction

Dry ice cleaning is started in America firstly used for cleaning grease by the navy. Currently the America Air Force has also carried out large-scale use of dry ice cleaning in aircraft maintenance and aircraft paint stripping. Now dry ice cleaning is widely adopted by many industries . The working principle of dry ice blast cleaning machine is similar to that of steel grit blasting, plastic sand blasting and soda blasting machines. In dry cleaning, the dry ice pellets are accelerated in high pressure and ejected to blast the surface to be cleaned. The similarity of dry ice cleaning is that the particle gratifies and the momentum disappears instantly upon the blast. An agile exchange happens between dry ice particles and the surface, resulting to the agile gratification of solid CO2 (carbon dioxide). We have developed a series of high-performance dry ice blast cleaning machines which is affordable, time-saving, energy-saving and environmentally friendly, leading to a dramatic improve in working efficiency and effect.

Application
The applications of dry ice cleaning in automotive industry
In automotive industry, it has been a big deal to clean the carbon deposits inside the engine. The normal operation of the car will destined to be affected if the carbon was cleaned incompletely, which will in turn lead to many risks and crisis. To deal with the deposited carbon by chemicals not only cost a lengthy time of over 48 hours, the chemicals themselves can also do greatly harm to people’s health. While with the use of dry ice cleaning, this problem can be completely solved within 10 miniutes and the descaling rate can be up to 100%.
GM, Ford, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Toyota, Honda and other automotive companies are all cleaning the casting molds using dry ice cleaning, which perfectly ensures the quality of castings. In car decoration industry, this technology is also applied to clean the wax and polyurethane residue on the car seat production molds. American Textrom Automatico (Dirk Siqiong company) and Rieter Automotive (Ritter Moter Company) are examples.

The applications of dry ice cleaning in tire industry
In tire industry, the success and maturity of the dry ice cleaning technology has been widely recognized. Many well-known tire companies including Goodyear and Bridgestone have adopted it. While, Michelin Tire Company—known as the empire of tire industry, uses this technology to clean tire molds in its each plant in the world. The advantages are remarkable: reduces the production cost and increases the annual production; avoids the micropores in hand washing; the abrasion is gone; a considerable amount of equipment maintenance costs are saved since we don’t need to remove the equipment; reduces the need of re-engraving the commodity logo which is used for market tracking purpose in the inner wall of the mold; in compliance with the national safety standard.

The applications of dry ice cleaning in power industry
In power industry, the dry ice cleaning technology shows unparalled advantages comparing with other cleaning methods. The transformer on-load cleaning, the on-line cleaning of the generator casing and the blades and the power distribution system, the surface cleaning of the stator and rotor without doing harm to the high voltage insulation paint and insulating tape, preventing the ‘break down’ phenomenon during the running of the motor, all of which have rely deeply on dry ice cleaning.

The applications of dry ice cleaning in plastics industry
In plastics industry, the dry ice blasting system can perform direct-cleaning work on the bottle-shaped mold in punch press, effectively avoiding the ‘orange peel effect’ and the trouble of removing and installing the molds. Dry ice cleaning is widely adopted by many well-known plastics companies like Alphagary Company, Amcor PET Packaging, Aqua Glass, Atlantic International Group, etc.

The applications of dry ice cleaning in rubber industry
In rubber industry, according to the characteristics of rubber die-casting molds and streamlined molds, on-line or off-line cleaning are performed targetedly for the O-rings, seal ring and other rubber molds, which effectively guarantees the boot time and mold precision. Abbot Labs, Accushnet Ruber Co, Inc, Ainak Industries and many other well-known corporations are all typical users of dry ice cleaning.

The applications of dry ice cleaning in die casting industry
It features better effect to clean the vent, remove the paint, the cumulative resin or other dirt using dry ice. The hot on-line cleaning process does not need us to cool, remove or re-preheat the molds, saving plenty of the cleaning time and improving the production efficiency. During cleaning it is unnecessary to remove the molds thus helps to avoid some bump damages and cut the costs, which does good to the routine preventive maintenance of the molds. Besides, the whole cleaning process is rather environmentally friendly with no secondary pollution accompanied and does no harm to people’s health.

The applications of dry ice cleaning in food industry
In food industry, the superiority of dry ice cleaning is incomparable in cleaning the carbon deposits or other dirts that adhered to the conveyor belts, furnaces, baking trays, rollers or other transport devices. In wind and food industries many companies including Anheuser Bush, Inc., Blue Bell Creamery, Frito Lay have all adopted this technology. Well-known Danish brewer Carlsberg and Tuborg, Italy Nutella have introduced the technology into their production process, realizing online self-cleaning.

The applications of dry ice cleaning in printing industry
In printing industry, with the advantages of simplicity, better washing effect and never wear, the dry ice are widely adopted to clean the ink and fuel deposited on gears, guides and nozzles. Advanced Paper Box Company, Bell Paper Box, Inc., Cincinnati Enquirer and other printing companies have all adopted the technology. Cincinnati Enquirer, Eastern Color Printing and other foreign printing corportions are generally using the technology to clean the bearings, nozzles, drums and other core parts of the printers, which solved the difficulty of washing color ink and ensured the printing quality.

The applications of dry ice cleaning in medicine industry
In medicine industry, the dry ice cleaning features safe and environmentally friendly (such as dry, non-toxic, low-temperature sterilization). While Novo Nordisk Pharmacy has utilized this technology to its extreme into its production process .

The applications of dry ice cleaning in wood products industry
Dry ice cleaning is widely used by Boise Building Products, Georgia Pacific and other wood products corporations to clean the dirt in glue press machines or dryers for its advantages of flame-retardant, anti-static, dry-cleaning and not easy to cause timber deformation. Europe’s leading integrated paper group SCA and the well-known Danish building block toy manufacturer LEGO are also applying dry ice technology in the maintenance and cleaning of its production equipments.

The applications of dry ice cleaning in ship cleaning
In removing the seaweeds, the dirts and the shells on the boats, dry ice cleaning is a much better choice than high-pressure water cleaning for its superior cleaning effect and the property that the organics can not adhere again after cleaning. The dry ice clean the hulls, the seawater intake valve, the water condensers and the heat exchange, the engine room, the machinery and electrical equipment, etc.

The application of dry ice cleaning in oilfield and petrochemical
In petrochemical industry, the cleaning of all types of furnaces has been an inevitable difficulty, such as the cleaning of the steam boiler, the pre-heating furnace, the reactor and the polymer. The dry ice cleaning is developed outside of the multiple traditional cleaning methods. The unique principle, the novel approach and the prominent effect has made dry ice cleaning the first choice for manufactures in the petrochemical industry.

The applications of dry ice cleaning in aerospace
The applications include compound mold (graphite-epoxy molds and other composite structures) cleaning, special aircraft paint removing, engine carbon deposits cleaning (the manual processing details after chemical drug soaking are replaced by component cleaning), maintenance and cleaning , plane paint removing and jet engine conversion system repairing.

The applications of dry ice cleaning in other fields
Some enterprises in Japan and Europe have applied the technology into the hull-cleaning in shipbuilding industry, while some of the foreign enterprises have introduced this technology into public welfares such as architecture-cleaning and sanitation cleaning, which has brought significant economic and social benefits.
