Connected stages for component washing, rinsing and drying.
Prepare parts for the next production stage.
Cleaning removes incoming oil and particles from components moving between machining and assembly operations. The wash and drying sequence is selected for the surfaces, holes and recesses on the part.
For particulate-cleanliness requirements, include the specified sampling and analysis method with your enquiry.
Washing, rinsing and drying in sequence.
Spray washing treats the incoming contamination. Rinsing removes cleaning-liquid residues, followed by air blow-off and hot-air drying. Liquid circulation, filtration and maintenance access support the cleaning process.
Part handling that fits production.
Conveyor and indexed arrangements offer different ways to move components through the process. Part orientation, fixtures, spacing and required output guide the equipment layout.
Choose the cleaning process and the handling method separately
Spray washing describes how the part is cleaned; conveyor or indexing describes how it is moved. Use your contamination, access to surfaces and production rhythm to compare arrangements.
- Incoming contamination and target finished condition
- Part drawings, pockets and restricted contact surfaces
- Dryness, throughput and test method
- Part drawings, material and mass
- Representative incoming contamination
- Required cleanliness and dryness
- Output, loading and changeover expectations
- Layout, utilities and acceptance method

questions, answered.
Find answers about materials, part handling and inspection or cleaning processes.
How are the cleaning stages selected?
Washing, rinsing, air blow-off and drying are selected for the incoming contamination and required finished part condition. Geometry, cleaning-liquid compatibility and the next production operation also influence the sequence.
Include any specified surface cleanliness and dryness requirements.
How much loading space does a part need?
Loading space includes the component, its supports or fixture, and the clearance required for treatment and transport. Belt width, usable loading width and the process opening are considered separately.
Show the part in its intended loading orientation, including spacing between components.
How is conveyor speed selected?
Conveyor speed works with part spacing and process-zone length to achieve the required output and treatment time. Washing and drying requirements guide the selected movement settings.
Provide the target parts per hour and the planned loading pattern.
What is the difference between output interval and treatment time?
Output interval is the time between finished parts leaving the machine. Treatment time is how long one component stays in a washing or drying zone. Several components can move through different zones at the same time.
Part spacing, conveyor speed and zone length connect output with treatment time.
When is indexed cleaning useful?
Indexed handling is considered when a component needs a fixed position or orientation at a cleaning stage. Fixtures locate the part while the sequence coordinates treatment and transfer.
The required station time, part changes and output guide the equipment arrangement.
Which stages can accompany ultrasonic cleaning?
Ultrasonic cleaning can be combined with rinsing, additional cleaning stages, air blow-off and hot-air drying. Workpiece transfer and drainage connect the stages.
The sequence is selected for the material, contamination and required finish.
How is cleaning performance evaluated?
Surface appearance, dryness and particulate cleanliness are evaluated using the method specified for the component. Photographs show the surface appearance; particle requirements use the specified sampling and measurement method.
Include the required measurement and acceptance criteria in your enquiry.
What should an enquiry for custom cleaning equipment include?
Include the part range, material, incoming contamination, required finish, output and loading preference. Add the available floor space, site services and connections to adjacent equipment.
Drawings and representative samples help develop the equipment proposal.
Can I view technical-cleanliness analysis documents?
Two technical-cleanliness analysis reports are available in the testing and documentation section. They include particle-size results, classifications and microscopy images.
Open the complete PDF to see the extraction and analysis information for each report.

How to select an industrial parts washer
Compare spray and ultrasonic cleaning separately from conveyor and indexed handling. Use your part geometry, contamination, production load and required result.
