(54)	Cleaning assembly for removing wax from a bladed ring

(57) A cleaning assembly (1) for removing wax from a bladed ring (3) has a rest and/or a seat (22) for placing the bladed ring with its axis (8) set vertically; the bladed ring is rotated about its axis (8) so as to arrange a nozzle (9) to be cleaned in a position aligned with a thrust member (45) carried by an actuator (34); once the bladed ring (3) has been blocked by means of releasable retention devices (50), the actuator (34) is actuated so as to press and discharge the wax contained in the nozzle (9) to be cleaned.
