A different way to clean parts
De-Oil, Degrease, Clean, Dry & Recoat
A Continuous Automated Operation
Turbo-Clean parts
cleaning machines
are an established
and successful
range of de-
oiling, degreasing
and cleaning
systems designed
specifi cally
for processing
manufactured
parts at high
production rates.
Turbo-Clean machines are
ideal for reliable, high
performance, low cost
de-oiling, degreasing, cleaning
and coating applications within
automated in-line production
lines or as stand-alone cleaning cells where
parts are simply loaded into the top mounted
load hopper for automated processing.
The horizontal centrifuge de-oiling system
can remove and recover more than 95% of
re-usable oil. The centrifugal system is also
available as a combined de-oil plus aqueous
detergent or AIII solvent cleaning and drying
process, working within the same chamber.
Application of inhibitors or coatings is also
possible.
The patented vibratory oscillating immersion
process can provide cleaning, rinsing, drying
and re-coating processes, including filtration
and ultrasonics to parts travelling continuously
through the cleaning system. Parts can be
manged throughout the vibratory transfer
process to maintain configuration and position
to meet customer requirements.
Both formats are designed to separate parts
from clusters to achieve individual item
cleaning and the motive actions are
managed to avoid component damage.
Turbo-Clean machines are compact units
that can be easily integrated into continuous
70
manufacturing production lines, eliminating
costly and complex intermediate product
handling. Cleaned parts are discharged
directly to clean containers or discharge
conveyors. The vibratory system can be
formatted to provide direct product transfer
to a subsequent manufacturing process.
Equipped with Siemens control technology,
the machines can be configured to interface
to a machining centre or cold header
delivering parts for processing. It can also
provide power and control facilities for
discharge conveyors or interface with
subsequent manufacturing machines for safe
automated operations.
Process options start with straight forward
de-oil, degrease, cleaning operations, or can
be enhanced to provide more sophisticated
and specific cleaning, rinsing, drying regimes
that can include process and product
monitoring providing traceability to meet
customer validation requirement.
Turbo-Clean GmbH have been
manufacturing parts cleaning machines since
1993 and have global installations in
specialist markets including Automotive,
Aerospace, Medical, Pneumatics, Electrical.
