The new YukonDAH system cleans and dries 1.6 million components per year. The three-tank system delivers optimally prepared components for subsequent painting processes - especially on difficult geometries.
Withinthe production process, a major European manufacturer of domestic appliances cleans various oven components with a total of three newly installed YukonDAH continuous flow systems in combination with an existing overhead conveyor system. After washing and drying, the components must be free of oil, dirt and residual moisture, which also applies to folded edges and other undercuts. This ensures optimum preparation for the subsequent enameling process. The following processes are carried out one after the other in a synchronized process with the 3-tank system: cleaning, pre-rinsing, rinsing, blowing off and drying. A total throughput of approx. 1.6 million cleaned oven components per year is achieved in each of the almost 30 meter long systems. To save energy, the exhaust air volume is minimized with the help of exhaust air management and the necessary heating power is reduced by optimizing the flow.
Demand-oriented cleaning of heavy metal parts before painting
Another current example of a system is about to be delivered to the customer. In preparation for the subsequent painting process, planetary gears, slewing gears and winches for a large metalworking company are cleaned and phosphated using a PacificDTH cycle system, then rinsed and dried using an air circulation process. Connected to the customer's overhead conveyor system, the components pass through the system. The two oscillating special nozzle systems, which are connected separately to the washing and rinsing tank, ensure reliable cleaning results and surface properties within the same chamber. The large system enables the treatment of large-volume components with an edge length of up to 3 meters. The additional insulation of pipes, filters and tank covers as well as the use of a steam condenser ensure a significant reduction in energy consumption.
In both systems, various Libelle sensor technology systems ensure permanent monitoring of the cleaning medium and thus reduce maintenance costs.
