Dry Ice Cleaning Machine
The dry ice cleaning machine achieves a high-level polishing effect. All components used are of high quality. The meticulously developed metering technology ensures reliable sandblasting without any ice remaining on the machine. The dry ice cleaning machine is designed for continuous operation. Its reliability has been verified in numerous tests, including field and durability tests. The airflow to the base has been optimized to guide the available compressed air through the machine to the nozzle, achieving low loss. Through the IB base, a satisfactory cleaning effect can be achieved even with lower pressure and gas consumption (3.5 m³/min). Another advantage of this low resource consumption is low noise, such as an approximate noise level of 80 dB(A) at a sandblasting pressure of 5 bar. The base is equipped with an ice residue removal device. This allows the remaining dry ice to be removed from the tank with just a button press after operation, preventing the machine from freezing. The new dry ice cleaning machine also features an integrated oil-water separator for reliable operation. The sandblasting pressure and ice feeding speed can be adjusted via buttons, with the set values displayed on the screen. Additionally, statistics such as running time, average ice consumption per hour, and total ice consumption can be accessed. The adjustment of ice feeding speed and sandblasting pressure can be locked using the push-button switch.

Washing Principle
By combining the thermodynamic principle of thermal expansion and contraction with the kinetic effect of air compression, the mold surface undergoes a micro-explosion, thereby causing the dirt to脆化 and be rapidly stripped away.
Cleaning Effect
Dirt-covered molds, parts, or equipment are often difficult to clean. The issue: sandblasting cleaning techniques leave behind sand or glass particles. This usually means additional cleaning steps are required after the initial cleaning. High-performance dry ice cleaning machines eliminate this problem. After the blasting process, the dry ice particles completely sublimate into CO2, achieving the cleaning effect.
Advantages of Dry Ice Blasting Cleaning Technology
No preparation is required before cleaning.
Cleaning does not require disassembling the equipment. Dry ice pellets can easily enter into corners and crevices.
Reduce equipment downtime due to malfunctions
Quickly and effectively clean using dry ice.
Eco-friendly cleaning
No additional chemicals or sprays required
No surface damage
· No residue
Dry ice sublimates to CO2. No abrasive or wastewater residue remains.
Dry ice cleaning machines use compressed air to propel dry ice particles at speeds exceeding 150 m/s. The low temperature of -79°C condenses dirt and makes it brittle. The high-speed propelled dry ice particles can then easily remove the dirt. This is a particularly effective method for gently removing almost all types of dirt.
Clean = Low Temperature x Speed
During the manufacturing process, liquid CO2 first flows into the compression cylinder of the granulator, then it is crystallized into dry ice snowflakes through pressure reduction. These snowflakes are then compressed through an extrusion die using a hydraulic cylinder, forming cylindrical dry ice. Subsequently, the cylindrical dry ice is crushed into dry ice granules.
From CO2 to Dry Ice
■ Suitable for cleaning methods in all fields
Dry ice cleaning machines do not use any cleaning agents or chemicals. They are suitable for all fields where the use of water or sand for cleaning is legally prohibited. Since dry ice particles can sublime into gas, there are no residues or wastewater.
Steel, metals, and machinery manufacturing
The dry ice cleaning machine makes it extremely easy to perform deep cleaning and maintenance cleaning on production equipment, welding robots, belt conveyors, and spray booths.
Printing Factory
After dry ice blasting cleaning, all printing equipment, cylinders, and tools look as new.
Wood and electrical industries
Dry ice blasting is also ideal for cleaning woodworking equipment, generators, turbines, and control cabinets.
Plastic and Packaging Industry
Dry ice cleaning machines can remove silicone, rubber, dyes, paints, and other contaminants from injection moldings and production lines.
Automotive industry, foundry, and injection molding factories
Dry ice cleaning machines can remove adhesives and release agents from all types of parts and workpieces. Residues such as silicone, rubber, dyes, paints, and release agents can be easily cleaned from injection molds, tools, and the entire production line. The cleaning results are impeccable, with no residues left behind.
Food Industry
Dry ice cleaning machines are ideal for removing coking, aged deposits, scale, grease, and starch from filling and mixing equipment, production lines, conveying systems, tanks, and heating furnaces.
Papermaking Industry
In the paper industry, gels, lime, dust, and porous materials can deposit within the system. This can lead to equipment downtime and a decline in paper product quality. Utilizing dry ice blasting technology can clean the system more quickly, allowing it to be immediately reused.
Local authorities and municipal
Graffiti and chewing gum: issues many cities and municipalities face. This requires a cleaning method that can thoroughly yet gently clean walls and floors, such as a dry ice cleaning machine. They can remove dirt without damaging the surface.
■Dry Ice Blast Cleaning Environmental Compatibility
Harmless material
Dry ice blasting cleaning does not use any toxic or environmentally harmful chemicals or solvents. This means it does not release any toxic or harmful vapors, thus eliminating the risk of hazardous substances harming employee health.
Easy to post-process
After dry ice blasting cleaning, no abrasive residue is left behind. Deposited dirt falls to the ground and can be easily swept up. Only the dirt generated during the cleaning process requires post-treatment. In contrast, chemicals and solvents used for cleaning produce difficult-to-handle hazardous waste.
No secondary waste
In sandblasting, soda blasting, and water jet cleaning, the abrasive substances used to remove harmful contaminants themselves generate hazardous waste. These cleaning processes produce a significant amount of secondary waste, in
In some cases, these waste materials must be handled carefully, and the cost of waste disposal is also very high.
Generate CO2
CO2 is a byproduct of other industrial production processes. For example, CO2 is produced during the combustion process in power plants and fermentation processes.
That's why there's no longer a need for dedicated CO2 manufacturing in industrialized countries; the process of burning fossil fuels to produce CO2 is now a thing of the past.
