In the mining industry, maintaining high equipment efficiency, reducing maintenance costs and extending asset life are vital to any operation. Due to mining environments, machines and sensitive electrical equipment are constantly exposed to dirt, dust, grease and other contaminants, which build up and cause the machines to break down more frequently, consume more power and shorten asset life. Contaminant buildup also makes visual inspections, maintenance and repairs more difficult and time consuming.
Dry ice blasting saves both time and money in the mining industry because it provides a non-conductive, environmentally responsible cleaning process that does not create secondary waste. Dry ice cleaning safely removes contaminants from production machines, maintains high efficiency of assets, improves inspection processes and decreases downtime, all while prolonging the life of the equipment.
