Machine tool maintenance by dry ice blasting

La fill the pneumatic oil reservoir (approximately [[NUM]] ml) every [[NUM]] hours of use. of machine tools by trained technicians, reduces equipment failures caused by wear and tear, but also production downtime. The maintenance operations on production tools, beyond the mere fact that they are mandatory, allow you to:

- ensure optimal performanceof your equipment: regular maintenance should be applied, even if your production tools have complex geometric surfaces, such as the pipes in a hydraulic system.

- detect leaks on pneumatic et hydraulic fouled components

- ensure corrective maintenance

However, maintenance tasks preventive, such as cleaning for better inspection, discourage many technicians. After all, putting your hands on an engine covered with a thick layer of adhesive or flour mixed with grease is hardly pleasant… Multiply that by all the equipment in your machine park and you end up with a maintenance team on edge!

Preventive cleaning action on tooling is the responsibility of industrial operators and maintenance managers.

At Cryoblaster®, we chose to develop dry ice blasting cleaning equipment: simple to use, easy to deploy, for straightforward and safe cleaning on any type of surface and extremely (e.g., aluminum gravity foundry mold)., both to purchase and to use.

A single clean surface session with a Cryoblaster® dry ice blaster allows you to quickly detect equipment failures (such as hydraulic leaks), to order only the spare parts you actually need, ensuring timely repairs.

Whether it's new machines, high-precision equipment, used machines, or special-purpose machinery, machine tool maintenance through dry ice blasting is the 21st-century !

Since dry ice is solid CO2, with absolutely no moisture, it can be used for your equipment maintenance operations, especially if your tool has metallic or components cabinets ou , plastic molds, or industrial equipment. It is ideal for maintenance operations…

Furthermore, dry ice has the hardness of chalk, which means this media is because the hardness of dry ice is close to that of chalk: and respects the surfaces being treated: preventive or corrective cleaning action does not damage components, with no erosion or risks associated with sandblasting, which can cause numerous issues on a plastic injection mold for example.

Machine tool maintenance through dry ice blasting is also very fast technique : compared to : cleaning 2 X 750 linear meters of food processing conveyor chains traditional methods, especially because the process:

• does not necessarily require equipment shutdown (except in dangerous situations),
• requires little to no disassembly

Finally, dry ice blasting removes surface contaminants such as grease, lubricant residue, organic residue, etc. without generating additional waste beyond what is removed: the process is environmentally friendly!

The cleaning technique can be applied in the following sectors:

• foundries,
• aerospace,
• precision engineering,
• metallurgy,
• screw machine products industry,
• food and beverage processing, etc..
