Manufacturing Equipment Cleaning

In-place cleaning of presses, moulds, robots and production cells — no tear-down required.

The problem this solves

In-place cleaning of presses, moulds, robots and production cells — no tear-down required.

Injection moulds, presses, robots and CNC machinery accumulate process residues, gas vents and cooling-channel fouling that compromise quality. Tear-down for cleaning costs days of production. Dry ice blasting cleans most equipment in-place, including hot moulds, without dismantling.

What you can expect

  • Plastics injection moulds
  • Press tooling
  • Robot end-effectors & weld guns
  • CNC fixtures
  • Composites layup tools

Benefits

Why dry ice for manufacturing equipment cleaning

Hot-mould cleaning

Moulds cleaned at temperature, ready to run again immediately.

No abrasive damage

Mould surfaces, polish and texture preserved.

Robot cells in place

End-effectors, fixtures and weld jigs cleaned without removal.

Less rejected product

Cleaner surfaces = fewer venting issues, less flash, fewer rejects.

Process

How a typical manufacturing equipment cleaning job runs

  1. 1

    Cell mapping

    Identify what to clean per shift — moulds, presses, fixtures.

  2. 2

    Phased blast

    Cleaning sequenced around production; HEPA capture where required.

  3. 3

    Resume

    Equipment back in service immediately, often during the same maintenance window.

Service-specific FAQs

Can you clean a hot mould?

Yes. We work routinely at production temperatures, returning the mould to service immediately after cleaning.

Will it damage polished mould surfaces?

No. Pellets are non-abrasive and preserve mirror finishes when correct pressures are used.
