Plastics Molding, Deflashing and Deburring

Dry Ice blasting replaces tedious, manual cleaning and deburring processes. Plastic deburring using Cool Clean CO2 technology cleans and deburrs various parts and geometries. Burr removal using CO2 blasting compliments in-process or post-process deflashing and deburring of plastic machined and molded parts, such as PEEK, nylon, ABS, etc. The process uses our high energy nozzle (HEN) to create a focused, powerful spray of CO2 particles blasted at the part, swiftly removing the tiny hairs, or burrs from the component. CO2 blasting can be completely automated to ensure consistent burr elimination. The equipment is harmless to employees and is environmentally safe.
