Energy Efficient Cleaning Solutions by SCHWING Technologies

The thermal cleaning specialist shows environmentally friendly systems at Plastindia 2018

February 2018 is all about this year’s edition of the leading Indian fair in the field of plastics, Plastindia. For the tenth time, visitors have from 7th to 12th February 2018 the chance to learn in Indian Gandhinagar about the trends and innovations in the international plastics industry. The thermal cleaning expert SCHWING Technologies is present as exhibitor on the spot (Hall 8, Booth E 37) and informs about its tailor-made solutions for energy efficient cleaning of polymer-contaminated tools and machinery parts. With its Green Cleaning Solutions, SCHWING is a successful specialist internationally and a leader in technologies for removing all types of plastics. Made in Germany - since 1969.

SCHWING Cleaning Solutions

The German machinery producer has brought to show to the Indian and international audience at Plastindia 2018 four different systems for all types of polymers. “With our VACUCLEAN, MAXICLEAN, INNOVACLEAN and COMPACTCLEAN lines, and with our cleaning know-how, we guarantee perfect cleaning results“, testifies Andreas Guderjahn, SCHWING Sales Expert. “Our systems operate perfectly efficiently and reliably. They clean in an entirely non-destructive, energy efficient and environmentally friendly manner, and positively without addition of any chemicals, and optionally also without the use of gas.“

Benefits for the Plastics Industry

Every three years, the industry meets in the most prominent fair of the Indian plastics industry. “We expect great interest in our systems and solutions“, says Guderjahn. ”Many plastics manufacturers still clean in India manually and mechanically and are eminently interested in our equipment. India is a fascinating and expanding market. That‘s why it makes perfect sense to show yourself in the fair and excite new customers for our solutions and technologies.“ Indian customers appreciate the direct and personal exchange on the spot and the opportunity to outline their specific needs and consult various topics, according to the SCHWING expert. Along with his Indian colleague Sunil Chalishajar, he would be able to explain each system in a very targeted manner, with a focus on actual needs and in great detail. Additionally based on positive cleaning results, he would be able to practically demonstrate the actual potential of SCHWING equipment. “This means many benefits for our customers: there is a substantial improvement in availability of machinery”, explains Guderjahn. „This in turn saves time and costs and results in better quality of plastics manufacturing. Because quality is paramount.“

SCHWING Cleaning Systems

For the plastics manufacturing industries, German cleaning specialist SCHWING supplies a number of different systems. These are all precisely controllable and user friendly, operate in an energy efficient and environmentally friendly manner and remove reliably and with no residues all kinds of polymers.

VACUCLEAN Vacuum Pyrolysis System

Machinery parts involved for example in extrusion processes can be perfectly cleaned with the easy-to-install, gas-free VACUCLEAN vacuum pyrolysis system. The system cleans large tools and components in a highly precise, safe and non-destructive manner. At the end of a cleaning procedure, pelletizing nozzles and heads, filter bundles, filter discs, blow film dies, extruder screws and spinning, meltblown or spunbond nozzles all look like new.

INNOVACLEAN Fluidised Bed System

INNOVACLEAN stands for a fluidised bed technology that is primarily aimed at the injection moulding industry. The technology is perfectly suited for all polymers including high-temperature polymers such as LCP, PEI, PPS, PI, but also PVC and halogenated polymers such as PTFE. The system is particularly useful to clean perforated plates, screw elements, special profile dies, hot-runner systems, spinning nozzles and assembled spin packs.

MAXICLEAN Pyrolysis System

Large tools and components such as heat exchangers, extruder screws, large extrusion moulds, pelletizing discs or large hot-runner moulds can best be cleaned in the gas-heated MAXICLEAN pyrolysis furnace.

COMPACTCLEAN Pyrolysis System

For small tools and components, SCHWING recommends the COMPACTCLEAN compact pyrolysis line. In a single procedural step, the system removes all organic contaminants for example from small parts such as spray nozzles, needle valve nozzles, perforated plates, non-return valves, screw tips, filter discs, mixers and hot-runner systems.

Additionally, SCHWING offers complete cleaning processes: from disassembly through thermal cleaning and after-treatment up to inspection.
