Dry ice blasting removes buildup on rubber mold presses reducing production downtime without damaging the surface
The accumulation of waste and mold release agents can cause imperfections and defects to the final product. With dry ice blasting it’s easier to hold tolerances on parts and decrease the amount of scrap. Dirty molds affect quality and productivity. Removing and reinstalling molds may cause tool wear. Dry ice cleaning eliminates the risk of mold and tool damage. With ICEsonic dry ice blasting system you can clean in-place while tire and rubber molding machines are operational. This cleaning method reduces downtime production and eliminates cooldown requirements. Non-abrasive properties of dry ice ensure no damage to the molds. Dry ice blasting is a fast and efficient cleaning method that reduces cleaning time and labor costs. It does not require additional chemicals nor creates secondary waste which makes it environmentally safe.
