Mould tool cleaning solutions: A labour-saving alternative

In the mould and tool industry, keeping moulds clean and free from contamination is essential for the quality of products produced, as well as for the longevity and durability of the moulds themselves. However, traditional cleaning methods that involve manual scrubbing with abrasive materials can be time-consuming, expensive, and can even damage the moulds. Fortunately, Kemet International Ltd, a company known for its Diamond Pastes and other polishing consumables and equipment, has developed a solution that can bring any used mould tool back to a near-new condition, removing any contamination in less than an hour - be it for Injection Moulding or Die Casting.

The Kemet process is a game-changer in the industry, as it requires no manual scrubbing and can be completed with a Kemet Ultrasonic Cleaner and a special aqueous-based injection mould cleaning solution. The ultrasonic technology enables the solution to penetrate even the most difficult areas of the mould, removing any contaminant, whether plastic or rubber residue, release agent build-up, non-ferrous mould debris, or tarnish, without damaging the parent material.

One of the biggest advantages of the Kemet process is that it eliminates the need for abrasive materials and solvents, which can be harmful to both the environment and the workforce. The use of an aqueous solution means that the cleaning process is environmentally friendly and does not expose workers to harmful fumes and chemicals.

The Kemet Ultrasonic Cleaner is designed to handle a variety of mould sizes and can accommodate different shapes and complexities. The process is fully automated, which means that once the tool is loaded into the cleaner, there is no need for any manual intervention. This not only saves time and reduces the risk of damage to the mould, but it also reduces the need for manual labour, ultimately leading to cost savings.

Kemet International Ltd offers a comprehensive range of products for the precision engineering industry, as detailed in their new catalogue. With the addition of their mould cleaning solution, Kemet is now a one-stop-shop for all mould and tool needs.

Kemet's mould cleaning solution is a cost-effective, environmentally friendly, and labour-saving solution for the mould and tool industry. By eliminating the need for abrasive materials and solvents and automating the cleaning process, Kemet has brought a new level of efficiency and precision to mould cleaning.
