Slash Downtime & Protect Vital Machinery
Production Engineers and Maintenance Managers in the packaging industry are under extreme pressure to maintain almost constant production while keeping machines clean, safe and well maintained. Given the packaging industry’s focus on high volume production any downtime due to mechanical failure or equipment servicing can be a very expensive exercise and present huge challenges to profitability.
Printing on packaging involves wax or clay based graphics or inkjets which inevitably transfer or overspray onto conveyor rollers. Drive belts and other components continually get clogged with glue, grease and other contaminants. Stripping and cleaning this equipment involves significant downtime and the use of scrubbing, scraping, sand blasting, pressure washing or chemical treatments can damage valuable equipment and introduces dangerous secondary waste.
The Primas Solution
Dry ice cleaning is ideal for the sensitive machinery used in the packaging industry as it does not use chemicals, water or secondary blasting media. Downtime is slashed as dry ice blasting is completed in situ and can occur while plant is still operating or hot. Dry ice cleaning also cuts downtime as it provides a powerful clean while minimising disassembly and preparation time and because the dry ice turns into gas upon contact with the contaminant, clean-up time and disposal costs are minimised.
