FAQs 1 to 3: Which contaminants can be removed during thermal cleaning?
Complex, cost-intensive tools, machine parts and components must be cleaned and maintained regularly in order to ensure the highest possible quality in industrial production and processing operations and to offer long service lives and lifetimes - in short, to work flawlessly and profitably.
This is where thermal cleaning comes in. For further information visit: https://www.schwing-technologies.com/thermal-cleaning
FAQ 01
?Which residues, impurities etc. can usually be removed with a thermal cleaning process and which ones can't?
??Thermal cleaning can be used to remove all organic residues and contaminants from temperature-resistant, heat-resistant materials.During the thermal decomposition of organic substances such as polymers (plastics), paints / varnishes, rubber or even foods, inorganic by-products or residues coming from the additives can be left. These can then be removed in an adapted post-treatment process.
FAQ 02
? Which #polymers / plastics can be removed with SCHWING thermal cleaning systems?
?? As the only manufacturer in the world, SCHWING is able to remove any polymer or plastic from heat-resistant metal parts without leaving any residue. This even applies to plastics with halogenated additives, which form aggressive decomposition products when they decompose (e.g. polyvinyl chloride/#PVC => hydrochloric acid/#HCl).

FAQ 03
? What other types of residue or contamination, apart from polymers or plastics, can be optimally removed by thermal cleaning?
? Thermal cleaning can be used to remove all organic contaminants from temperature-resistant materials. In addition to polymers and plastics, paints and varnishes, grease, food residues and much more can also be removed easily and flawlessly.The successful pyrolytic removal of (tire) rubber is highly dependent on the quantity and composition of the respective material. Components and tools containing PTFE/Teflon seals cannot be thermally cleaned without first removing them.
