Rotary Drum Parts Washer | Auger Parts Cleaning System

  • System Description
  • Standard Features
  • Common Applications

The drum parts washers are perfect for high volume, continuous cleaning & drying of small parts. Parts are automatically fed through the cleaning, rinsing and drying via a perforated rotating drum chamber with internal helix / flights or can be thought of as screw threads.  The size of drum perforations (or solid drum for immersion cleaning), flight pitch and height, etc can be varied to change cleaning aggressiveness and speed. The parts are cleaned using a powerful spray washing action for scrubbing the exterior surfaces combined with immersion agitation for flushing out the inside of blind holes, hollow and tubular parts for a complete tumbled cleaning.

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 […]
