Heavy Machinery Degreasing 

Industrial degreasing is a critical maintenance function, not aesthetic work. Accumulated grease, oil, and grime on production equipment is a serious safety and operational risk, and J&K Precision Cleaning treats it that way. Fire prevention is the number one benefit: hydraulic fluids and lubricants create a flammable mist, and the NFPA cites dirty equipment as a primary accelerant in industrial fires. Beyond fire, clean machines enable preventative maintenance by making leaks visible, opening up inspection access, and preventing heat-trapping grime and lubricant contamination that shorten asset life. Degreasing also drives OSHA compliance and operator safety by removing slip-and-fall hazards and keeping controls and E-stop buttons visible and functional under the Section 5(a)(1) general duty clause, and it protects production quality by preventing cross-contamination in sensitive industries like food, pharmaceuticals, and plastics. We match the method to the machine. Solvent-based manual cleaning uses industrial-grade degreasers and hand scrubbing for precise work. High-pressure steam and hot water cut caked-on organic compounds within fully contained areas. Dry ice blasting is non-abrasive, non-conductive, and non-water-based, which makes it 100% safe for electronics, motors, and sensitive robotics. Every job includes full containment and waste management: we cover sensitive components, build containment berms, use industrial wet-vacs, and coordinate with your facility EHS protocols. We service the full range of production equipment: CNC machines (mills, lathes, routers), industrial presses (stamping, injection molding, extrusion), conveyor belts and automated lines, robotic arms and welding cells, food production equipment (mixers, ovens, hoppers), industrial mixers and blenders, press pits and equipment sumps, and HVAC units, chillers, and air handlers. Safety governs the whole process through a strict Lockout/Tagout procedure. We begin with a pre-service walkthrough with your maintenance manager or safety lead, verify de-energization and LOTO compliance, prepare the site with containment and safety signage, execute degreasing using the pre-approved method, and finish with a final inspection walkthrough before re-energization. We are open 24/7, including emergency service, across Western New York from Buffalo to Jamestown to Fredonia. Most clients tie deep degreasing to their preventative maintenance schedule, choosing quarterly, semi-annual, or annual service during planned production shutdowns, and we can extend the job to the greasy floor around the machine with industrial floor scrubbing as part of the same visit.
