The return of solvent cleaning systems for metal elements in fashion

For this reason and to demonstrate the return of solvent cleaning technologies in a field dominated by water and detergent systems for many years, MEG has designed the solvent automatic washing machine 2S 55/32-P-FP/T + TA 20/1 AC.

The washing process that follows the cleaning of the metal products is essential for several reasons. It influences the quality of the finished product, beyond having a direct impact on the production rates. This operation is in fact a preparation to the coating or galvanising stages, processes in which residual traces of contaminants are not permitted.

MEG offers a solvent cleaning solution that enables to work with several materials, such as aluminium, Zamak, brass and steel, without having to worry about any possible interaction between the substrate and the type of detergent or water.

The ultrasound degreaser machine 2S 55/32-P-FP/T + TA 20/1 AC is equipped with a three-layer basket and can treat one basket (with a maximum weight of 20 kg) every 6 minutes. The washing cycle is composed of: Loading of parts; immersion washing with ultrasound; rinsing in solvent vapours by spraying the distilled solvent; drying in coils by condensation; unloading. This machine is composed of:

- One 2S 55/T unit

- One Digital Steel Ultrasound unit

- One refrigerating unit with a double compressor

- One TA 20/1 vertical axis

- A full enclosure with an automatic door

- A solvent tank with an automatic lid

- A loading cycle choice system

- An electric control panel with a touchscreen.

The washing system is also equipped with a distiller that treats the solvent continuously, in order to recirculate the product and always work with a clean fluid.

The operator can also regulate the ultrasound intensity depending on the parts to be washed, reducing the vibrations to a minimum for the most delicate

The operators'' health and safety are aspects that MEG has held in maximum consideration when designed this machine.
