Cold Jet is showing its innovative and environmentally friendly dry ice cleaning solutions and production equipment. Mould cleaning remains a critical component of producing quality products. Cleaning mould cavities and vents of resin off-gasses, cured material or mould release agents can prevent numerous common moulding problems such as short shots, burns, flash, contamination, etc. Cleaning is often delayed because traditional methods cause extended downtime and often involve the use of chemicals or mechanical means that are harmful to employees, abrasive to the tooling and can wear away critical mould tolerances.
Cold Jet offers solutions to clean moulds more often, faster, cheaper and non-abrasively, in a sustainable, environmentally sustainable manner. Cold Jet’s Dry Ice Environmental Cleaning and Surface Preparation (ECaSP) systems present a proven solution to accomplish productivity, quality and cost reduction initiatives that many plants are pursuing. Dry ice can also be utilised to deburr and deflash plastic thermoset (and sometimes thermoplastic) parts as the part geometries do not always lend themselves to tumbling. Cold Jet’s solutions are often completely automated. Cold Jet offers solutions with on-demand dry ice production and blasting for the surface preparation/cleaning of plastic parts prior to painting. Cold Jet systems are designed for easy integration into existing automated paint line systems.
