Ice blasting,dryice

[B.E YOUNG Sr]

Walt,
Heck the only reason I knew about this process is because they brought large equipment into our mfg. process.

Cleaned gas heating elements in a 300' long ovens.

No mess, no disassembly, and non-destructive.

Pretty neat system but costly. If we would have tore the ovens down and cleaned them conventionaly, down time would have been enourmous.

nor I

When I read enourmous my eyeballs looked like Donald Ducks eyeballs with dallor signs clicking faster ya eye.

Wished I knew about ice blasting 20/30 years ago other then having to work in freezen weather to seeee ice.

Larry,
Just wanted to pass on that our plant is using the dry ice blasting equipment again.

This time we are renting the equipment and supplying our own labor.

Cost $3500. per day or $145.83 per hour.

35 days worth of rentals and a $125,000. piece of equiptment is paid for.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

The old takes money to make money.
It it working and it can really roll in!

 

[Larry L.]

wow I could only afford a couple of minutes worth.

I think the trade could be sold to alot accounts..

can you take pictures and post them on the board?

plus take us on a field trip as how it cleans plus its speed of cleaning.

Larry,

I will be at one of our other plants for a few days.

Will folow up with the maintenace dept. though.

I also see lots of uses for this kind of equipment
