Vacuum Cleaning Furnace Explained: Working Principle, Applications, and Buying Guide (2025)

Introduction: Why Vacuum Cleaning Furnaces Are Replacing Traditional Cleaning Methods

Polymer processing companies struggle with clogged spinnerets, blocked filters, and carbon-filled melt pipes. Traditional cleaning methods—blowtorching, chemical soaking, sandblasting—damage metal and reduce tool lifespan.

A vacuum cleaning furnace solves these problems by removing polymer safely, precisely, and without mechanical wear.

Today, manufacturers in India, Turkey, Vietnam, China, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Germany, and Saudi Arabia are rapidly upgrading to vacuum pyrolysis systems.


🔹 How Vacuum Pyrolysis Cleaning Works (Detailed but Easy)

1. Melting – Controlled Softening (≈ 280–320°C)

Bulk polymer melts and drips into a collection tray.

2. Pyrolysis – Deep Cleaning Without Oxygen

Under vacuum (−0.085 MPa), polymers decompose into low-molecule gases instead of burning.

3. Oxidation – Final Carbon Removal

A limited amount of air is introduced to oxidize the remaining carbon particles.

✔ Final Result

The part becomes completely clean:
no polymer residues, no carbon, no deformation, no hole damage.


🔹 What Can a Vacuum Cleaning Furnace Clean?

Based on competitor analysis, these are the top industries already using it:

🟦 Nonwoven & Meltblown Manufacturers

Spinneret hole cleaning (PP, PET, PA)

🟩 Polymer & Chemical Fiber Plants

Filter mesh, breaker plates, screen changers, spinning components

🟧 Extrusion Industry

Extrusion dies, gear pumps, melt pipes, tooling inserts

🟨 Plastic Recycling Plants

Cleaning filters, plates, and extrusion screws

🟪 Maintenance Workshops

Standardized cleaning service for multiple factories

🔹 What to Consider When Buying a Vacuum Cleaning Furnace (Buyer’s Guide)

  1. Part size – choose chamber size based on spinneret / filter dimensions
  2. Polymer type – PET/PP/PA each require different temperature profiles
  3. Vacuum level – deeper vacuum = safer cleaning
  4. Temperature accuracy – critical for micro-holes
  5. Exhaust treatment – ensure water scrubber availability
  6. Automation – PLC and data logging
  7. Material – stainless steel preferred
  8. After-sales support – installation, training, spare parts
