Spray Washing
Tunnel Parts Washers
This washing system features a stainless steel conveyor belt that can move continuously or in increments, transporting the components that require cleaning. The length of the tunnel and speed of the belt are customizable to meet the specific production needs and cycle times of individual customers. The cleaning process combines chemical, thermal, and mechanical forces to create a high-pressure solution that effectively eliminates contaminants and yields superior cleaning results.
The washing tunnel features sealing doors that are positioned along the tunnel to correspond with each washing station. This allows for easy inspection of the tunnel, and the doors are located opposite of the water tanks, pumping system, and filtering devices. The spray manifolds are made of stainless steel and can be adjusted to achieve the highest levels of accuracy and efficiency. They are connected to the collectors through "clamp" joints that can be easily assembled and disassembled. The washing solutions are sprayed through specialized stainless steel nozzles that are designed to prevent clogging and have a suitable capacity. The spray pressure can be controlled using pressure gauges and regulated using ball valves, with the ability to adjust the upper and lower manifolds individually.
Overhead Conveyor Parts Washers
This washing system utilizes an overhead aerial conveyor to transport the components that require cleaning. The conveyor can move continuously or in increments, and the length of the tunnel and speed of the conveyor can be customized to meet individual customer production needs and cycle times. The cleaning process combines chemical, thermal, and mechanical forces to create a high-pressure solution that effectively removes contaminants from workpieces, resulting in excellent cleaning outcomes.

Index Conveyor Parts Washers
These washing machines offer great flexibility with their targeted spray nozzles and pallet back-feeding, allowing for effective cleaning of workpieces with varying shapes and machining requirements. The pallets carrying one or more workpieces are driven by a chain transfer and indexed through the various working stations, which can be either mobile or fixed. The drying process can be conducted using hot air or under vacuum. The cleaning process involves the use of chemical, thermal, and mechanical forces working synergistically to create a high-pressure washing solution that can effectively remove all contaminants from the workpiece, resulting in excellent cleaning outcomes.
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
These systems are designed to process parts directly on the work islands, eliminating the need for costly packing and transportation operations. The transfer of the pieces is carried out using a transfer system with rotating satellites, which are operated by a mechanical rotating table that ensures the positioning of the satellites during loading and unloading. These systems offer significant flexibility, with the ability to change customized piece holders and reposition the spray and blowing ramps quickly (in just 15 minutes), enabling total retooling of the system. Additionally, they provide the option of rotating the satellite on its vertical axis and integrating the cycle into the rinsing phase.
- 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
The plant features a loading hopper for appropriately dosing material, and a screw conveyor is used to transport the material through the various treatment phases. As the conveyor drum rotates, the pieces undergo a slow stirring motion while hot detergent is sprayed at a predetermined pressure from strategically placed nozzles. The washing cycle can be customized to suit the specific pieces being treated and the type of contaminants to be removed.
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
With these systems, you can process parts directly at the work islands without the need for costly packing and transport operations. A transfer system featuring rotating satellites and a mechanical rotating table allows for the easy transfer of pieces, while also ensuring precise positioning at loading and unloading. The system provides significant flexibility in terms of changing customized piece holders, and it can be easily retooled within a short time of just 15 minutes by repositioning the spray and blowing ramps. These systems also allow for the rotation of the satellite on its vertical axis and integration of the cycle in the rinsing phase, providing additional versatility.

Ultrasonic Cleaning
Manual Tanks
The immersion tank is designed to accommodate parts of different shapes and types. The tank features ultrasonic transducers, which can be either flanged or immersible based on customer preference. The plant utilizes advanced ultrasound technology, which automatically adjusts cavitation throughout the washing bath to optimize cleaning efficiency. This is achieved through preset data and transducer adjustments.
The washing process involves water-based detergent vehicles and ultrasound technology to remove surface pollutants from the pieces. The removed contaminants settle at the bottom of the tank and can be eliminated by a large-diameter cleaning valve or skimmed using a specially designed ramp to maintain the surface of the water clean. A filter system can be added to the ramp as well.

Automatic Lines - Single Basket
The gantry system, named "ROBOTRONIC," is designed for automatic handling of piece-holder baskets during various treatment phases. It is a motorized unit capable of moving on two axes, namely horizontal and vertical. During the horizontal movement, the unit performs sequential movements of the baskets while introducing and removing them from different tank positions during vertical movements.
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
The baskets-holders are transferred progressively by a transfer chariot that is controlled by PLC. We use special components for the rail that have mechanical characteristics exceeding the system's real needs. The MULTITRANSFER System automates the simultaneous translation of the baskets. This system is composed of a strong stainless-steel bar that moves all the baskets present from the loading to the unloading station, passing through the tanks and charging position, and transfers them to the next treatment station. It also introduces and removes the baskets from various tank positions during the vertical movements.
