A powerful device for dry ice cleaning uses compressed air to accelerate the dry ice pellets, which are up to three millimeters in size, to over 150 m / s. Because of the cold of minus 79 °C the dirt freezes and cracks. The greatly accelerated dry ice pellets then easily remove the dirt from the vehicle parts. The dry ice method is particularly effective at removing almost any dirt gentle to eliminate.

From carbon dioxide to ice

During the production process, liquid carbon dioxide enters the press cylinder of the so-called pelletizer and, thanks to the drop in pressure, turns into dry ice snow. A special hydraulic cylinder compresses the dry ice snow, which is then pressed through an extruder plate. This creates sticks of dry ice that break into pellets.
