In the surface preparation service industry, commonly used machines on the market include dry ice blasters, sandblasters, and laser blasters. However, there is a device that has just been released that is a dust-free toilet. Let’s find out with Specco2 about this dust-free pressure cleaning device and the dry ice machine to know how different these two devices are?

What is dustless blasting equipment ?

The dustless blasting cleaner uses an abrasive in combination with the water contained in this equipment. Combined with a high-pressure compressed air source, water is ejected and can remove any paint compounds that adhere to the surface of the device.

This equipment is often used in heavy industries and the restoration of old buildings and structures.

However, the biggest drawback of this device is due to the combination of using water and compressed air source with high pressure, this device is not suitable for cleaning small details that require gentleness and meticulousness like electronic device boards. Besides, the safety factor to the operator’s health is also a question mark when this equipment requires you to use the right materials to ensure environmental safety.

In addition, although they are considered dust-free devices, there are certain errors and they will emit a small amount of dust into the environment. In the field of cleaning medical equipment as well as the food processing industry, this is a big shortcoming.

What is dry ice blasting ?

Dry ice blasting machine is a non-abrassive equipment that uses dry ice as the main raw material. Dry ice combines with a large-capacity compressed air source and can clean any surface.

The similarity between the dry ice blasting machine and the dustless blasting method is that they can both be applied in heavy industry and construction restoration.

However, a dry ice blasting machine can also be used to clean electronic boards because dry ice is an extremely small material. After coming into contact with the surface to be cleaned, they will automatically fly away and leave no trace. Dry ice also won’t damage your business’s electronics.

Meanwhile, the dry ice blasting machine is also considered an environmentally friendly device and is safe enough to be applied in the field of cleaning medical equipment and food processing machinery.

In addition, dry ice is approved and used by the EPA, USDA & FDA (U.S Environment Protection Agency, the U.S Food and Drug Administration and the U.S Department of Agriculture.
