Can dry ice clean a hot injection mould without dismantling?
Yes — mould tooling cleaned at production temperature, no tear-down.
Verdict
Yes
Hot, in-press, no dismantling. Standard for plastics manufacturers.
The detailed answer
Hot mould cleaning is a major manufacturing dry ice application. The mould stays in the press at production temperature (140-200°C). Pellets remove plastic residue, gas vent fouling, cooling-channel external surface contamination and tooling stains. Mould surface polish preserved. No tear-down required. Time: 30-90 minutes per mould depending on complexity. Tooling back in production immediately. Reduces mould refurbishment frequency (less aggressive cleaning each cycle = longer time between refurbs).
