Plastic Processing

In injection molding and plastic processing, every disassembled tool means hours to days of downtime. Dry ice cleans in-place, often even while warm — releasing agent, polymer, and paint residue is sublimated away without harming polished tool surfaces.

Clean tooling while hot, without disassembly

Because no abrasive residue remains, subsequent shots come out flawless immediately.

Benefits in plastic processing

  • Tool-safe — no wear on polished surfaces
  • Cleaning possible while hot (no cooldown phase)
  • Extended tool life
  • No water, no corrosion risk
  • Higher product surface quality
  • Reduced scrap from clean parting surfaces

Frequently asked questions

Can we clean injection molds while warm?

Yes — dry ice enables cleaning the mold directly in the machine, often even while warm. This saves up to 40% downtime compared to disassembly and traditional cleaning.

Does dry ice attack polished tool surfaces?

No. Dry ice is non-abrasive and attacks neither tool steel nor polished surfaces. Release agent, polymer, and paint residue are removed via sublimation — the tool surface remains unchanged.

Which model for plastic processing?

For typical tool and mold cleaning we recommend the Champ Turbo or Champ Turbo Pro. Both provide enough blasting power for stubborn polymer residue while remaining mobile at the machine.
