Traditional cleaning may require a shutdown or deferral to a scheduled maintenance window. Where production and safety controls permit, laser cleaning can be performed in place and may reduce disassembly, blast-media cleanup, and disruption to adjacent equipment.
Remove release agents and process residue from suitable molds. Where operating conditions permit, cleaning may be completed without removing the mold from the press, helping reduce maintenance interruption.
Clean precision tooling using a non-contact process. Controlled parameters can reduce the dimensional risk associated with grinding and abrasive methods.
In-place cleaning where process conditions permit. Reduced disassembly. No abrasive cleanup. No silica exposure from blast media.
No. Laser cleaning operates in-place without blast media, chemical fumes, or dust clouds. Adjacent production lines continue operating. We clean molds in the press, equipment on the line, and structural steel overhead while your facility stays in production.
Molds typically need cleaning every 500-2,000 cycles depending on the material and process. Weld fixtures benefit from monthly cleaning. Structural steel in corrosive environments should be inspected and cleaned annually. Our maintenance contracts provide scheduled recurring service at locked-in rates.
Production molds (injection, compression, stamping), weld joints, heat exchangers, conveyor systems, press tooling, machine tool beds, paint line hooks, and structural steel. We clean steel, aluminum, copper, cast iron, and tool steel.
