Heat treatment cleaning is the process of heating the paint in a low-oxygen environment to decompose it into its carbon components, breaking the organic and inorganic bonds. For the past 50 years, this type of cleaning has been performed in such ovens in Europe and America. It is a widely used method for cleaning powder and wet paints chemically-free from metal parts like hangers, hooks, and bars used in paint facilities.
Differences from other cleaning methods;
- Offers economical and flexible operation.
- Environmentally friendly; complies with environmental standards.
- Initial investment and operating costs are advantageous compared to other methods.
- No physical abrasion occurs, so no deformation caused by sandblasting or similar processes.
Cleaned Products;
- Powder and liquid paint plant hangers
- Incorrectly painted products
- Metal parts with rubber and plastic injection
- Heat exchangers
- Conveyor chains
Because the cleaning is done by breaking the chemical bonds of the organic and inorganic materials in the paint in a flameless environment; hooks, hangers, bars, and defective painted metal parts are cleaned without damage.
In the ovens for cleaning hangers and defective painted parts, the products or hangers to be cleaned are treated in a flameless, low-oxygen environment, where components of the paint that deform at different temperatures dissolve, breaking the paint’s bonds and allowing the paint to be easily removed.
