Dry Ice Sectors: Foundry







Dry Ice Sectors: Foundry

Loss in valuable production time credited to conventional cleaning of core boxes and everlasting moulds is a problem within the foundry industry. Equipment should be cooled, disassembled, cleaned and then re-assembled for traditional cleaning which is crucial to ensure quality product is produced.

Dry ice cleaning allows equipment to be cleaned out hot as well as in place considerably reducing the lengthy techniques of traditional cleaning. Zero secondary waste stream is created further reducing spend disposal amount and tidy up time. The use of solvents and chemicals can even be eliminated and the not abrasive nature of dry out ice cleaning means adjusts and core boxes will not be ‘changed’ at all preserving their critical tolerances and increasing the life of expensive tooling.

Illustrations of dry ice cleaned out in the foundry industry include:

Electrical equipment, Permanent moulds, Core boxes, Screen and slot vents, Die-casting machines, Mixers, Hydraulic power units,

Crucial Benefits of dry glaciers cleaning in the foundry Industry

Foundries are perhaps one of the industrial sectors that can benefit the most from saved recovery time by using dry glaciers blasting to clean their plant machinery.

  • Reduce creation outages
  • Eliminate disassembly of adjusts
  • Clean better, hot and in-place
  • Eliminate spend disposal cost
  • Non-abrasive, no damage to tooling, 
  • Moisture free so safe around electrics
  • Environmentally dependable – no chemicals used
  • Delivers superior as-cast end
  • Production gains can be extremely important (reduces amount of scrap produced so reduces waste production cost)
