Cleaning Plastic Injection Molds
PLASTIC MOLDING – MANUFACTURING
Cleaning up from a plastic molding production run can cost you valuable time and money when using traditional methods. Dry ice blasting has become the preferred method for removing waxy, paraffin build up and product residues. It is non-abrasive, environmentally friendly, and sublimates upon contact leaving NO secondary waste and or residue. Dry ice blasting is also non-conductive so electric motors and circuitry can be safely cleaned.
Current cleaning methods lower productivity for long running parts. Dry ice blasting cleans the mold surfaces while the mold is at curing temperature in the press. Plastic injection screws can be cleaned during compound or color changeover. This reduces your downtime since surfaces need not be cooled or reheated.
