Spray Washing

Tunnel Parts Washers

Pallet Conveyor

The washing system is equipped with a stainless steel conveyor belt, capable of moving either continuously or in increments, to transport the components in need of cleaning. The tunnel length and belt speed can be tailored to align with the unique production requirements and cycle times of each client.

The washing tunnel system, featuring strategically placed sealing doors for easy inspection, employs adjustable stainless steel spray manifolds connected via "clamp" joints and specialized nozzles designed to resist clogging. The spray pressure is manageable through pressure gauges and adjustable ball valves, allowing individual control of the manifolds. 

 

Overhead Conveyor Parts Washers

Overhead Conveyor Tunnel

The washing system employs an overhead aerial conveyor for the transportation of components in need of cleaning. The conveyor's movement, either continuous or incremental, along with the tunnel length and conveyor speed, can be tailored to align with the unique production requirements and cycle times of each customer. 

With sealing doors positioned for easy tunnel inspection and away from the water tanks, pumping system, and filtering devices, the washing tunnel also boasts adjustable stainless steel spray manifolds. These manifolds are connected to collectors via 'clamp' joints that are simple to assemble and disassemble. 

 

Index Conveyor Parts Washers

Aqueous based cleaning solution for machine parts washing

With their precision spray nozzles and pallet back-feeding, these machines offer a flexible approach to cleaning workpieces with different shapes and machining requirements. The pallets, which carry one or more workpieces, are propelled by a chain transfer and navigated through multiple workstations, either fixed or mobile. 

In this loop configuration the pallet feeding back to the loading and unloading areas is provided automatically. A further option is indexing in order to facilitate the machine binding to just-in-time automatic lines. This machine is typically considered a line transfer with loading and unloading on opposing ends.

The floating pallets take advantage of maximum pallets while assuring high flexibility in workpiece loading and unloading to and from the conveyor. These machines can be installed in or off-line.

Rotating Satellites Parts Washers

Step By Step Transfer Machine

These systems, specifically designed for on-site part processing, negate the need for costly packing and transportation. They employ a transfer system with rotating satellites, managed by a mechanical rotating table, ensuring accurate positioning during the loading and unloading process. 

  • Elimination of packaging costs and transport costs
  • Re-equipment of the plant in a very short time
  • Number of satellites to be chosen
  • Customized systems

These plants are suitable for treating the following with aqueous detergent solutions:

  • Critical machined parts (automatic actuators, burner bodies, water meters)
  • Delicate parts with dead holes (friction flywheels, valve bodies, gas on-off valves)
  • Pieces placed on automatic assembly lines for which is requested a perfect washing, blowing and drying process
  • Hydraulic, pneumatic multichannel distributors and manifolds

Rotary Drum Parts Washers

Rotary Drum Washer

Equipped with a loading hopper and a screw conveyor, the plant ensures precise dosing and transportation of material through various treatment stages. The rotation of the conveyor drum induces a gentle stirring motion in the pieces, while hot detergent is sprayed from strategically placed nozzles, allowing for a fully customizable washing cycle to treat various pieces and remove different types of contaminants. 

The system is designed to make the most of the heating source that generates vapor. As the vapor travels through the system, it transfers heat to the relevant tanks before condensing into fresh hot water, which can then be reused to fill up rinse and degreasing tanks. The solution that is the most contaminated is directed towards the concentration/boiling tank, where a heating unit is located.

  • Lower sludge disposal — the sludge is concentrated in one small-sized tank only.
  • Power consumption reduction by approximately 50%.
  • Inlet fresh water consumption reduction by 70%, — the evaporation is captured by the condensate dampers.
  • The automatic refill is always performed with fresh water — it is released by the condensed vapor.
  • Comfortable and quick tank cleaning — the heating elements are only located in the concentration/boiling tank.

Positioned Jets Parts Washers

Rotary Type Washer

These systems offer the convenience of processing parts directly on-site, eliminating the need for expensive packing and transport. The built-in transfer system, equipped with rotating satellites and a mechanical table, ensures easy and precise transfer of pieces during loading and unloading. 

  • Elimination of packaging costs and transport costs
  • Re-equipment of the plant in a very short time
  • Number of satellites to be chosen
  • Customized systems

These plants are suitable for treating the following with aqueous detergent solutions:

  • Critical machined parts (automatic actuators, burner bodies, water meters)
  • Delicate parts with dead holes (friction flywheels, valve bodies, gas on-off valves)
  • Pieces placed on automatic assembly lines for which is requested a perfect washing, blowing and drying process
  • Hydraulic, pneumatic multichannel distributors and manifolds

Ultrasonic Cleaning

Manual Tanks

Manual Type Ultrasonic Cleaning

The immersion tank, designed to cater to parts of different shapes and types, boasts ultrasonic transducers that can be flanged or immersible. It leverages cutting-edge ultrasound technology to auto-adjust cavitation in the washing bath, thereby optimizing cleaning efficiency through the use of preset data and transducer adjustments. 

The tub is designed to house items of different shapes and sizes, with the added feature of a basket for placement. The cleaning procedure, which involves the use of water-based detergents and ultrasound technology, ensures surface pollutants are eliminated, with the residue conveniently settling at the bottom of the tank for subsequent removal. 

Semi-Automatic Tanks

Semiautomatic Ultrasonic Cleaning

The immersion tank, designed to cater to parts of different shapes and types, boasts ultrasonic transducers that can be flanged or immersible. It leverages cutting-edge ultrasound technology to auto-adjust cavitation in the washing bath, thereby optimizing cleaning efficiency through the use of preset data and transducer adjustments. 

The tub is versatile, capable of holding different sizes and shapes directly or via a basket. A pneumatic cylinder, adjustable to weight and automation requirements, aids in handling the piece or basket, and the combination of water-based detergent vehicles and ultrasound technology guarantees pollutant-free pieces. 

Automatic Lines - Single Basket

Automatic Ultrasonic Cleaning

The gantry system known as ROBOTRONIC is purpose-built to automate the handling of piece-holder baskets during multiple treatment phases. This motorized system can traverse both horizontally and vertically, performing sequential movements of the baskets and managing their insertion and extraction from different tank positions. 

Runways made of high-quality materials are used for pick-and-place handling, consisting of extruded bars with specialized profiles that are oxidation-hardened for long-term durability. The carriage and vertical bar slide within highly precise guides that feature supports with inclined rollers and five-year lubrication to enhance the system's reliability.

Automatic Lines - Multiple Lines

Ultraflex Robotronic

A PLC-driven transfer chariot steadily transports the basket-holders, using specially engineered rail components that go beyond the system's actual needs. The MULTITRANSFER System, an industrial-strength stainless-steel bar, takes charge of the automatic translation of baskets from the loading area to the unloading area, via the tanks and charging spots, and propels them to the next treatment station, also overseeing the introduction and extraction of baskets at various tank locations during vertical transitions.
