Industrial equipment does not fail all at once. It gets slower, hotter and less reliable as dirt, grease and grime build up on its surfaces, and by the time the buildup is obvious the performance has been degrading for a long time.
Peak performance is a maintenance question
Keeping equipment and machinery in top condition means removing that buildup on a schedule, not waiting for a fault. Clean equipment runs at the temperature it was designed for, and a clean machine also makes a leak, a crack or a worn seal visible while it is still cheap to deal with.
Three ways to get it clean
Which method we use depends on the equipment, the soil and how close the machine is to product:
- Dry ice blasting. Non-abrasive and residue-free, so it suits equipment that cannot be stripped down or exposed to water.
- Hand cleaning and wipe-downs. For complex assemblies, control gear and anywhere a controlled finish matters more than speed.
- Sanitation. Where the equipment handles food or product that demands it, cleaning is followed by a separate sanitizing step.
Cleaning in place
The largest saving on most equipment cleaning projects is not in the cleaning itself, it is in what you avoid. Cleaning in place means the machine does not have to be dismantled, moved or reassembled, which removes both the labor and the risk that comes with putting it back together.
Our technicians will walk the equipment with your team and recommend the method that fits, rather than applying the same one to everything.
