Linde’s solvent-free CRYOCLEAN® Snow cleaning device offers producers of plastic parts both operating and environmental advantages over solvent-based and aqueous systems.
Balancing efficiency with environmental protection, the fully automated CRYOCLEAN Snow system reduces energy usage and costs compared with water and solvent based cleaning systems. Linde highlighted the CRYOCLEAN Snow system at NPE 2018 held on the 7th-11th May in Orlando, Florida.
The patented system uses a stream of carbon dioxide (CO2) dry ice particles to remove residues from plastic parts prior to painting. Combined with compressed air and ejected from a proprietary high-pressure nozzle, the dry ice stream blasts dirt and surface residues from parts such as automotive bumpers and polycarbonate headlamp lenses.
