Qarboon technology is the best alternative to traditional processes that are hazardous to people and the environment for degreasing parts produced by machining, bar turning and additive manufacturing.
QARBOON's supercriticalCO2 cleaning process replaces traditional organic solvent-based treatments, A3 hydrocarbon or modified alcohol-based solvents and washing processes by ensuring the total absence of solvent residues.
Unlike other cleaning processes, the gaseous nature ofCO2 at atmospheric pressure ensures that there are no traces left on the parts being cleaned.
Using carbon dioxide to degrease machined parts also eliminates any risk of solvent retention inside complex parts.
With this process, no drying step is necessary, and once the degreasing cycle is complete, the parts are at room temperature and ready for use.
Supercritical CO2 penetrates all the blind holes and cavities in a complex part to degrease both the inside and outside of the part.
It offers a cleaning quality that achieves an ultra-clean level.
It is just as suitable for cleaning medical devices that are difficult to clean using traditional processes, such as injection or suture needles, as it is for machined parts intended for the automotive or aerospace industries, such as valves and hydraulic cylinders.
Ultra-sound and agitation ensure perfect de-crosslinking both inside and outside the parts.
- Work at low temperature
- No drying required
- No risk of material corrosion
CO2 is compatible with all types of materials, including aluminium and most polymers.
Its neutrality in relation to materials means that it does not oxidise or attack them during cleaning, degreasing or decarticulation.
Suitable for all types of parts, even those that are particularly difficult to clean, such as complex parts with blind holes or tubes.
Cleaning quality complies with the standards defined in ISO 15001, ISO 13485, etc.
Adopt an effective solution for degreasing and de-crosslinking your machined parts.
Once the parts have been manufactured, whether using metal powder or polymer powder, a cleaning or "de-powdering" operation is compulsory.
Inthe case of additive manufacturing of metal parts, the first stage of the part cleaning process will consist of dropping by gravity the majority of the powder that has not been fused.
Carbon dioxide plays a decisive role in the second stage of the de-powdering process. It will be able to penetrate all the cavities and parts of the part to extract and carry away the metal particles that were not fused during manufacture.
Thanks to the properties of supercritical CO2, there is no possibility of carbon dioxide retention or residual traces.
1- Ergonomic loading:
Our cleaning chambers are horizontal to facilitate loading and unloading of heavy loads.
2- High production rates:
Our machines are sized to meet your production rates and not the other way around.
3- Production availability:
Our machines require little maintenance (a few hours a month at most) and no recurrent machine stoppages for oil changes, for example, are to be expected.
Look no further. You've found the world's best supercritical CO2 equipment.
