The thermal cleaning equipment is used to remove coatings, paint, oils, resins, or other stubborn residues by using controlled high temperatures. Instead of scrubbing or soaking parts in chemicals, the heat breaks down the contaminants so they can be easily removed, often as ash or residue that’s brushed or rinsed away afterward.
One big difference compared to chemical cleaning is consistency. Thermal cleaning doesn’t rely on solvents that can weaken over time or react unpredictably with certain materials. It’s especially useful for metal parts like fixtures, hooks, molds, or racks that get repeatedly coated during production processes.
Another advantage is reduced labor. Once the equipment is set up, parts are cleaned evenly without a lot of manual effort. That said, it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution. Heat-sensitive components, plastics, or assemblies with seals usually aren’t good candidates.
People often choose thermal cleaning when they’re dealing with heavy buildup that’s difficult or time-consuming to remove manually. It’s also popular in environments where minimizing chemical use is a priority.
Like any method, it has trade-offs—energy use, cycle time, and part compatibility all matter.
