Automatic Parts Washer System with Conveyor

  • System Description
  • Features
  • Common Applications

Automated Parts Washer System Description

The fully-automated A-MKT parts washer uses a conveyor and walking beam system to move and index baskets of parts through agitated immersion cleaning, rinsing and drying processes. This automatic parts washer is especially effective at heavy-duty ultrasonic cleaning of metal parts to remove fine particulate, buffing and polishing compounds, and water-soluble cutting fluids and coolants used during CNC machining.

Automation empowers the operator to simply load or unload a basket of parts and return to other tasks. This automated parts washer offers flexibility to tune each station according to the size and mass of parts. This allows for highly effective cleaning of a wide variety of sizes and weights of metal parts.

Automated Parts Washer System Features

This system includes a roller-conveyor at the loading and unloading stations. This allows the operator to load (or unload) a basket of parts and return to other tasks.  When the washer is ready for parts, it will automatically index the basket from the load station to the wash station, from the wash station to the rinse station, from the rinse station to the dryer, and from the dryer to the unload station.

Roller Conveyors View from Load Station

Sensors at the load station ensure that the basket is placed correctly on the in-feed side of the machine, and sensors on the unload station automatically stop the machine from indexing when the unload station is completely full of baskets. This means the operator is freed up during parts of the wash/rinse/dry cycle to attend to other tasks, knowing that the parts baskets will not collide.

Agitated Immersion Washing Station

Automated immersion parts washer - turbulation

A platform lift is included in both the wash and rinse tanks that allows the parts baskets to be agitated in the solution inside the tank. Controls are included for both long and short strokes, as well as slow or fast agitation. This agitation moves the solution constantly around and through the parts to ensure thorough cleaning and rinsing of each part. Additionally, high-flow pumps with in-tank reduction nozzles add turbulation as the platform moves up and down.

Oil Removal System – Surface Sparger

The automated parts washer system includes an oil removal system to remove true oils from the part surfaces. This oil removal system includes a surface sparger to push all floating oils into a side mounted tank dam.

Oil Removal System – Tank Dam

Digital temperature controls and cycle timers are available for each of the wash, rinse and dry stations. This allows the user to set each tank/station individually.

Automated Drying Station – Heated Air Knifes

Common Applications

The superior part exterior and part internals flushing action makes agitated immersion automatic parts washers excellent for:

  • Removal of oil and chips from machined components, castings and housings
  • Removal of buffing and lapping compounds
  • Cleaning prior to welding, deburring, brazing, blasting or other post-process applications where surface cleanliness is critical
  • Precision cleaning prior to assembly or final packaging
  • Rapid proto-typing of wide variety of sizes of metal parts

Semi-Automated Inline Citric Passivation Solution with Data Tracking

For one medical device manufacturer, the design of a citric passivation solution faced two major challenges: The manufacturing process required performing a water-break test after cleaning parts, before proceeding to passivation. This meant that they could not use a fully automated passivation solution. The system had to have data tracking for quality control purposes. Semi-Automated […]
