Cleaning molds or dies is often required for the production of quality and consistent parts. In various manufacturing processes, a mold or a die may be used to form a part.

Residue and contaminants build up over time in molds or dies. After several uses, a mold or die needs to be cleaned. Without proper cleaning, part quality and consistency will suffer. Molds and dies can be cleaned by hand, with blasting, or possibly even via tumbling.

High frequency finishers are well suited for mold and die finishing. Air blasting is commonly used, as is wet blasting for mold or die cleaning. Consideration must be made in selecting the appropriate media. Improper media selection could result in damaging the molds or dies.
