New-Model Dry Ice Blaster

May 13, 2019
Patented technology shapes particles for optimal effect in different surface-cleaning applications

COLD JET claims its new PCS 60 dry-ice blasting machine represents "the pinnacle of dry-ice blasting technology and will set the standard for dry ice blasting machines for years to come." The patented Particle Control System™ (PCS) cuts dry ice into diamond shaped particles in the exact dimensions chosen by the operator (3 mm to 0.3 mm, and in-between sizes. The user has complete control over sizing and can find the most effective setting for each application.

The machine also is easy to use. With a 7-in. LCD color screen and digital controls, the PCS 60 provides an intuitive display that allows the user to easily view and adjust blasting parameters and machine settings. It also features programmable and password-protected application recipes. This feature allows users to set and save blasting parameters, such as blast pressure, particle size, and feed rate, which increases efficiency and ensures the right settings for each individual application.

"Our team designed the PCS 60 to be extremely efficient by utilizing next-generation technology to maximize our customer's return on investment while reducing their overall total cost of ownership," stated Brian Allen, Cold Jet SVP & Global ECaSP brand manager. "It cleans more effectively and requires significantly less dry ice and air pressure than competing machines."

The optimized design, including a "straight-through" air system and redesigned SureFlow™ feeding system, minimizes air pressure loss and dry ice sublimation within the machine. This allows the user to maximize air supply yield and reduce dry ice waste.

The PCS 60 is IoT-enabled via Cold Jet CONNECT®, which provides remote monitoring and diagnostics while allowing users to collect and manage data and employ tools for optimal performance and productivity. The machine also is automation- and integration-capable via an optional accessory package, so the PCS 60 can be combined with a Cold Jet dry-ice production unit and a robot for continuous and fully automated blasting.

The machine was designed with user comfort in mind. With a drastic weight and size reduction compared to competing machines and wheels designed for mobility and maneuverability, the PCS 60 provides an enhanced cleaning experience. The PCS 60 was also built to limit and reduce noise levels, incorporating technology and materials to accomplish this.
