Dry Ice Blasting Machine | Industrial Dry Ice Cleaning Equipment

Applications of the Dry Ice Cleaning Machine

Dry ice blasting is suitable for cleaning without damaging the surface or leaving secondary waste.

Mold Cleaning

The dry ice blaster efficiently removes:

• Plastic mold residue
• Rubber molds
• Die-casting molds
• Injection molds
• Tire molds

Cleaning can often be performed without removing the mold from production equipment, minimizing downtime.

Food Processing Equipment

Suitable for cleaning:

• Baking equipment
• Meat processing machines
• Conveyor belts
• Mixers
• Packaging machines
• Production lines

Since dry ice sublimates directly into gas, no moisture or chemical residue remains after cleaning.

Automotive Industry

Ideal for removing:

• Engine carbon deposits
• Oil stains
• Grease
• Paint residue
• Welding slag

Printing Industry

Efficiently cleans:

• Printing rollers
• Ink residue
• Adhesive contamination

without damaging delicate surfaces.

Electronics Manufacturing

Dry ice cleaning is safe for electrical components because it is non-conductive and moisture-free.

Applications include:

• Circuit boards
• Electric motors
• Control cabinets
• Precision equipment

Features of the Dry Ice Blaster

High Cleaning Efficiency

The machine combines compressed air with high-speed dry ice pellets to remove stubborn contaminants quickly while reducing equipment downtime.

Adjustable Dry Ice Consumption

The dry ice feeding rate can be adjusted between 0 and 2 kg/min, allowing operators to optimize dry ice usage for different cleaning applications.

Compact and Portable Design

Despite its industrial performance, the machine weighs only 68 kg and features a compact footprint.

Imported Frequency Converter

The machine is equipped with a high-quality imported frequency converter to ensure:

• Stable operation
• Smooth dry ice feeding
• Improved energy efficiency
• Longer equipment lifespan

How Does the Dry Ice Blasting Machine Work?

The cleaning process consists of four steps.

Step 1: Load Dry Ice Pellets

Fill the hopper with 3 mm dry ice pellets produced by the dry ice pellet machine.

Step 2: Connect the Air Compressor

Compressed air is supplied to the machine at the required pressure.

Step 3: High-Speed Blasting

Compressed air accelerates dry ice pellets through the blasting nozzle toward the contaminated surface.

Upon impact, the dry ice rapidly sublimates, lifting dirt and contaminants without damaging the base material.

Step 4: Clean Surface

Since dry ice changes directly into carbon dioxide gas, no water, chemicals, or secondary waste remains after cleaning.

Technical Parameters

Advantages of Our Dry Ice Cleaning Machine

Non-Abrasive Cleaning

Removes contaminants without scratching or damaging equipment surfaces.

No Secondary Waste

Dry ice sublimates directly into gas, eliminating water, chemicals, and blasting media residue.

Reduced Downtime

Many molds and industrial equipment can be cleaned without disassembly, improving production efficiency.

Environmentally Friendly

No chemical solvents are required, making the process safe and environmentally responsible.

Easy Operation

Adjustable dry ice feed rate and intuitive controls simplify operation for users of all experience levels.

Compatible with Multiple Industries

Suitable for food processing, automotive manufacturing, plastics, rubber, electronics, printing, aerospace, and many other industries.

Required Supporting Equipment

To achieve the best cleaning performance, the following equipment is required.

Dry Ice Pellet Machine

The dry ice blasting machine must be paired with a dry ice pellet machine .

The pelletizer produces 3 mm dry ice pellets, which are the standard consumable required for dry ice blasting.

Without dry ice pellets, the cleaning machine cannot operate.

Air Compressor

Compressed air supplies the energy needed to accelerate the dry ice pellets.

Recommended air supply:

• Pressure: 4–10 bar
• Air flow: 2–3 m³/min

Selecting the correct air compressor ensures stable cleaning performance.

Safety Equipment

Operators should wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including:

• Protective goggles
• Safety gloves
• Ear protection
• Protective clothing

These accessories improve operator safety during blasting operations.

FAQs

Does the dry ice blasting machine include a dry ice pellet machine?

No. The dry ice blasting machine and dry ice pellet machine are separate machines. The pellet machine produces the 3 mm dry ice pellets required for blasting.

What size dry ice pellets does the machine use?

The machine is designed to use 3 mm dry ice pellets, which provide the best cleaning performance.

Will dry ice blasting damage equipment?

No. Dry ice blasting is a non-abrasive cleaning method that removes contaminants without damaging most surfaces.
