Dry cleaning systems for workpieces – Precise, dry, efficient
Our dry cleaning systems enable gentle, economical and completely dry cleaning of workpieces of all kinds – without chemicals and without wet media.
The systems are used wherever components need to be reliably cleaned of oils, emulsions, chips and production residues before the next production step.
By using targeted air flows, contour-adapted suction forms, rotating clamping systems and powerful vacuum extraction, our systems clean both individual parts and series components gently and reproducibly.
The systems can be flexibly integrated into existing production lines and are ideal for highly automated production environments.
Why dry cleaning? Advantages at a glance
- Clean workpieces without wet media or chemicals
- Gentle treatment of sensitive surfaces
- Significant reduction in rejects and rework
- Energy and resource-saving operation
- Significantly lower maintenance requirements compared to wet cleaners
- Easy integration into automated production lines With our dry cleaning systems, you can create optimum conditions for subsequent assembly processes, laser marking and even an extension of the service life of existing washing systems.
- Integrated preservation device is possible
Cleaning process - how our technology works
1. cleaning station for rotating components (example: gear shaft)
Workpieces are automatically transferred to storage prisms by a customer-side transport system.
In the next step, they are clamped between the motor and mandrel, enclosed by contour-adapted suction forms and set in rotation as required.
The cleaning effect is created by:
- a precisely guided air flow along the component contour,
- the internal cleaning by a compressed air blast nozzle on the clamping mandrel,
On completion, the clamping and suction components retract, and the workpiece is automatically transported onwards by the transport system.
2. cleaning station for flat components / conveyor belt system
Flat components (e.g. gear wheels) are automatically guided through the cleaning chamber via a running conveyor belt.
A blowing air curtain and specially aligned blowing nozzles ensure the removal of cooling lubricant and build-up.
Highlights of this variant:
- Continuous component feed
- Alignment of components possible
- Automatic removal after the cleaning process
Perfectly suited for series production with high cycle rates.
Aerosol separation & media recirculation
In both systems, aerosols are safely extracted, filtered in two stages and the separated cooling lubricant can be automatically fed back into the cooling lubricant circuit.
This makes our systems not only efficient, but also environmentally friendly and resource-saving.
