Revolutionizing Medical Device Cleaning: The Powerful Benefits of Dry Ice Cleaning

Extreme reduction in cleaning time, improved quality
High-tolerance precision parts and the associated problems of cleaning micro cavities in production molds are familiar with today manufacturers of medical devices. Maintaining high product quality and clean manufacturing equipment in production of surgical stents, devices and catheter tips is of high importance. Other challenges are cleaning of clamping devices and removal of parting line-flash or de-burring of materials from final products are also of very important manufacturing issues.

Customers Benefits

  • Faster and better cleaning.
  • Improve product quality.
  • Reduce downtime.
  • Non abrasive (no wear/tear to moulds or tooling).
  • No water / Chemicals.
  • Increase productivity.
  • Cleaning in-situ (no dismantling).
  • Decontaminate surfaces.
  • No blasting media, no waste disposal.
  • Fast return on investment.

Dry Ice Cleaning for Medical Device Industry

Dry ice cleaning is a process that removes the residue left behind by rubber and tire molds. This can be done manually, but the use of more sophisticated equipment makes it easier to clean molds effectively, avoiding damage to the product.

 

The main purpose of dry ice cleaning is to remove contaminants from your mold so that you get good quality products that meet customer expectations in terms of appearance and performance. It is also used for ensuring fine details on your products are not affected by contamination particles when they come out of the molding machines or during transportation.

Applications

Thermoplastic injection molds, Thermoset injection molds, Liquid silicone molds, Tablet production molds, De-flashing/ deburring of medical stents and implants…

Revving Up with Dry Ice: Automotive Applications

The use of dry ice is entirely safe for the environment, the machinery, and the user.

The Benefits of Dry Ice Cleaning For Medical Device Industry

Here's why dry ice cleaning equipment is so effective:

  • Costs Saving

    The dry ice cleaning method does not use water, detergents or chemical additives. The cost savings of this method make it a great investment for any die-casting manufacturer.

  • Less labor and less downtime.

    The process is fast, efficient and requires little maintenance to keep running smoothly throughout the day or night (depending on your needs).

  • Less damage to molds, molding equipment and molding environment.

    For cleaning, the dry ice blasting machine uses recycled CO2 as a by-product that is converted into its ice form. Upon impact with the surface that needs cleaning at supersonic speed, dry ice sublimates and changes from solid-state to gaseous then vaporizes.. This makes cleaning extremely easy and pristine, leaving no secondary waste and a completely dry, moisture-free cleaning environment.

New Technology. Proven Design

True Value of Dry Ice Cleaning.

Dry ice cleaning can be accomplished quickly and does not require changing any components or adding liquids or solvents to the machine during use. This reduces both costs associated with labor and time spent maintaining equipment compared to other methods such as liquid nitrogen blasting or brushing products onto rubber molds in order to remove debris from them.

How does dry ice clean?

Dry ice cleaning uses solid CO, a non-abrasive media that won't damage surfaces or equipment. The super cooled dry ice pellets or particles are accelerated at supersonic speeds and sublimate on impact, resulting in the surface being cleaned, lifting dirt and contaminants off the underlying substrate.

How dry ice works...

Instead of abrasive media to grind surfaces (and damage them), SPECCo2 uses dry ice (Solid CO2) accelerated at supersonic speeds that sublimate upon impact and lift contaminants from substrates.
