Dry ice blasting machines we supply

We supply Karcher dry ice blasting machines new, across three model families. Which one you need comes down to how much ice you will use, what you are cleaning and whether the machine has to move around a site or sit in one place.

Karcher IB 7/40 Advanced

The general purpose machine and the one most buyers start with. It handles the majority of maintenance and production cleaning work: moulds, tooling, print and packaging lines, electrical panels and general plant. Available in GB and EU specification.

Why dry ice rather than another method

Dry ice sublimates on impact. It goes from solid to gas and leaves nothing behind, so there is no secondary waste to collect and dispose of the way there is with grit, soda or water blasting.

It is non conductive and non abrasive, which is why it gets used on electrical equipment, control panels and tooling that would be damaged by grit or could not be taken off site to be cleaned. In a lot of cases the machine or the line does not have to be dismantled first, and that is usually where the time is saved rather than in the cleaning itself.

Buying, and what to work out first

Three things decide which machine fits: how many hours a week it will run, what the surface and the contamination actually are, and whether you have a dry ice supply arranged. Ice consumption is the running cost that people underestimate, so it is worth sizing the machine against the work rather than against the biggest job you might ever do.

Tell us what you are cleaning and how often, and we will tell you which of the three is the right one and what it costs.

Dry ice blasting: common questions

The IB 7/40 Advanced covers most maintenance and production cleaning and is where most buyers start. The IB 10/8 L2P suits heavier continuous work. The IB 15/120 is for sustained industrial use. It comes down to hours per week, the contamination and your ice supply.

No. The ice sublimates on impact, going straight from solid to gas, so the only waste to collect is the contamination you removed.

Dry ice is non conductive and non abrasive, which is why it is used on control panels, motors and tooling that could not be grit blasted or taken off site.

Often not, and that is usually where the time is saved rather than in the cleaning itself.
