Dry Ice Sand Blaster is an eco-friendly, non-damaging surface cleaning solution, also known as a dry ice sand blasting machine. It uses solid dry ice particles to remove dirt without damaging substrates, as a high-efficiency alternative to traditional cleaning methods. It eliminates toxic residue, avoids scratching sensitive precision parts, and cuts maintenance downtime by cleaning without equipment disassembly, making it widely used in automotive, food processing, and electronics industries. Dry ice blasting machines clean workpiece surfaces by blasting high-speed dry ice pellets. They can be used in conjunction with dry ice pelletizers to produce different sizes of cleaning pellets on-site directly from block dry ice, eliminating the need to pre-purchase finished dry ice. As a professional manufacturer, YG offers premium ICE-JET series equipment, covering portable to industrial models with full technical support.

Dry Ice Sand Blaster Working Principle:
The working principle of the dry ice sand blaster is based on three core effects: kinetic energy impact, thermal shock, and sublimation. First, high-pressure air accelerates dry ice particles to hit the surface of the object to be cleaned, breaking the hard dirt layer. Then, the ultra-low temperature of dry ice (-78.5℃) causes rapid thermal shrinkage of the dirt, reducing its adhesion to the substrate. Finally, the dry ice particles sublimate into carbon dioxide gas instantly after impact, expanding nearly 800 times in volume, which completely peels off the dirt from the substrate without leaving any blasting medium residue or secondary waste.
Application of YG Dry Ice Sand Blaster:
1. Automotive industry: Industrial dry ice blasting machines can thoroughly clean engine carbon deposits, intake manifolds, brake components, and vehicle body glue residue without damaging the original parts. It also supports non-disassembly cleaning for engine compartments, turbochargers, and transmission components, making it widely used in auto repair workshops, vehicle remanufacturing factories, and classic car restoration projects.
2. Food and beverage industry: It is ideal for cleaning production lines, mixing tanks, conveyor belts, and oven residues, and fully complies with global food safety standards as it leaves no chemical residues or secondary contaminants during the cleaning process. It is widely used in breweries, dairy factories, snack processing plants, and meat processing workshops, suitable for cleaning baking equipment, filling machines, packaging lines, and fermentation tanks.
3. Mold industry: It can clean injection molds, rubber molds, and die-casting molds without disassembling the molds, greatly reducing equipment downtime. It can reach and clean the fine gaps, exhaust holes, and textured surfaces of molds without damaging the mold’s precision or surface finish, a benefit that traditional abrasive cleaning cannot provide. It is widely used in injection molding factories, rubber product workshops, die-casting plants, and 3D printing post-processing workshops, and can clean residual plastic, rubber, release agent, and carbon deposits on warm molds, cutting mold maintenance time by more than 80% in most cases.
4. Electrical and power industry: It can safely clean motors, generators, distribution cabinets, and circuit boards without water damage or short-circuit risks, as it is a completely dry cleaning process. It is suitable for regular maintenance of power plant equipment, substation facilities, industrial control cabinets, motor windings, and printed circuit boards, and can effectively remove dust, oil stains, carbon deposits, and insulation layer residues on electrical equipment (under safe operating conditions).
Portable Dry Ice Cleaning Machine Features:
- Eco-friendly cleaning process: Our dry ice blasting machine adopts an eco-friendly cleaning process. It uses no chemical reagents during operation, and the dry ice sublimates directly into CO₂ gas after blasting. This generates no secondary waste and causes no pollution to the environment.
- Full range of models: 4 models from ICE-JET 3.0 to ICE-JET 40, covering small portable cleaning to large industrial heavy-duty cleaning needs.
- Low operating cost: The total power of all models is controlled below 800W, the smallest model is less than 500W, which greatly reduces power consumption and operating costs.
- Non-damaging cleaning: The blasting process will not scratch or wear the surface of the cleaned object, making it suitable for precision parts, soft substrates, and various sensitive materials.
- Easy to operate and maintain: Our industrial dry ice blasting machine features a simple structure. It requires no complex professional training to operate, and it allows for convenient daily maintenance that users can complete independently.
How To Choose The Right Model For Your Project?
To choose the right dry ice sand blaster for your project, you can make a judgment based on the following key points:
- According to the scale of your cleaning tasks: If you need small mobile cleaning for home maintenance, small auto repair shops, or scattered on-site tasks, you can choose ICE-JET 3.0 or ICE-JET 6.0, with lightweight (40-50KG) and compact size, easy to carry and transfer. For medium and large industrial cleaning projects, such as factory production line maintenance, large mold cleaning, ICE-JET 15 or ICE-JET 40 with larger dry ice capacity and higher working efficiency are more suitable.
- According to your site conditions: If your cleaning site has limited space and requires frequent transfer of equipment, choose a model with a smaller size and lighter weight. If the site has a stable air supply system and requires long-term continuous work, choose a model with a larger dry ice capacity and a wider air consumption range.
- According to the type of dirt to be cleaned:For light dirt such as surface dust, glue residue, and light oil stains, a model with lower supply pressure is sufficient. For heavy dirt such as thick carbon deposits, heavy rust, and stubborn oil stains, choose a model with a wider pressure range and higher blasting efficiency.
FAQ About Dry Ice Sand Blasting Machine:
A: Yes. Dry ice cleaning is a non-abrasive cleaning process; it will not scratch, wear, or deform the surface of precision parts and sensitive substrates, which is much safer than traditional sand blasting or chemical cleaning.
A: No. Our equipment is designed with user-friendly operation logic. We will provide a detailed operation manual and operation guidance for each user. You can master the basic operation skills after simple debugging; no complex professional training is required.
A: No. Dry ice particles will sublimate into carbon dioxide gas instantly after impact; only the peeled dirt needs to be cleaned up, and no secondary waste, such as blasting medium residue, will be left.
A: You need an air compressor that can provide stable air pressure and flow matching the model you choose. For example, ICE-JET 3.0 needs an air compressor that can provide 3-10bar pressure and 1-2m³/min air flow.
