Parts cleaning has become a quality critical manufacturing step in all industry sectors. Thus, companies have to take great effort to reproducibly meet even more demanding particulate and surface tension cleanliness specifications. Ecoclean is answering to these requirements with future-oriented parts cleaning solutions. Information on the various machines for solvent and water-based cleaning for the general industries will be provided at FABTECH in Chicago on September 11-14.
Due to rising demands on component quality, new manufacturing technologies, modified processes and/or materials, and digital transformation as well as stricter energy efficiency and climate protection targets, parts manufacturers are confronted with new challenges. Even more stringent specifications on particulate and surface tension residual contaminations have to be fulfilled in a stable manner. Ecoclean and UCM — the division of the SBS Ecoclean Group specializing in high-precision and ultra-fine cleaning — are responding to these demands with optimally adapted solutions and innovative developments. At FABTECH, Ecoclean will be providing information on a broad range of future-oriented solutions for the general industries.
As a full-range supplier, Ecoclean offers industrial parts cleaning solutions for every cleaning task in the general industries. Adapted to the specific requirements and applications (e.g. manufacturing technology and level, type of contamination, cleanliness demands, throughput, weight), different systems are available for batch cleaning with water-based media and environmentally compatible solvents.
For solvent-based cleaning with hydrocarbons and modified alcohols (semi-polar solvents), the product portfolio comprises of fully enclosed machines carrying the fluid in a closed circuit. All solvent-based cleaning systems come equipped with an integrated distillation system and filtration systems for continuous automatic reconditioning of the solvent. As a result, operator exposure to the solvent is virtually eliminated and an unchanging cleaning quality and long solvent life is ensured.
Water-based cleaning with alkaline, neutral, and acidic media is the technology most frequently employed in the industry. True to the principle of “like dissolves like,” it enters the field whenever water-based (polar) contamination — e.g., coolant and lubricant emulsions, polishing pastes, particles, abrasive materials, salts or fingerprints — need to be removed. For water-based part cleaning processes, Ecoclean’s product program includes an extensive range of both standard cleaning systems and customer-specific designs.
In addition to the machine information, Ecoclean will provide information on solutions for industry-specific requirements, including the diverse tasks in electromobility, medical engineering, as well as maintenance and remanufacturing. Forward-looking service solutions are another topic at Ecoclean’s Booth #D 40562. These include an iOS and Android compatible service app for maintenance and repair requirements, tailored service and maintenance concepts, developments regarding the digitization of cleaning processes, options for modernizing and adapting systems, as well as training programs for customer employees.
