Innovative CO2 Snow-Jet Cleaning Process

ipa_100pxThe acp cleaning systems are based on an innovative CO2 Snow-Jet Cleaning Process at the use of recycled gas developed by the Fraunhofer Society of Manufacturing Engineering and Automation (IPA) in Stuttgart.

Solid CO2 ice crystals are used as a jet medium. With its combination of mechanical, thermal and chemical properties, CO2 snow is able to detach and remove surface contamination. The CO2 snow cleans gently, is dry, residue-free and suitable for a wide variety of materials and material combinations.

Patented Supersonic Jet Nozzle Technology

duesenarray_230pxThe essential component in CO2 Snow-Jet technology is the cleaning head designed as a supersonic two-component concentric nozzle. The liquid carbon dioxide expands as it exits to become a mixture of snow and gas which is accelerated to supersonic velocity by compressed air.

Thus multiple cleaning effects occur directly on the surface that dissolve and remove film like and particulate contamination.

Besides a variety of different nozzle adaptions scalable nozzle arrays and flat nozzles are available for cleaning larger areas.

Capability of being integrated and automated

The CO2 Snow-Jet Cleaning technique can be integrated as a part of an automated flow process into a wide variety of cleaning systems.

Depending on customer requirements fully automated as well as custom solutions are implemented. The technology can be used as stand-alone cleaning equipment or integrated to chained up production lines ("One-Piece-Flow").
