Ecoclean – Aqueous Cleaning Solutions
Today environmentally friendly aqueous cleaning has taken on the most important role for the intermediate and final cleaning of parts. They tend to be preferred if a large quantity has to be cleaned and/or fine and finest cleaning has to be carried out.
Cleaning systems for aqueous cleaning are available as flow-through spray units, single-chamber and multi-chamber systems. To attain a sufficient level of cleaning we integrate mechanical applications into the system, such as ultrasonics or injection flood washing, for example.
Available Models
The EcoCwave is a powerful spray flood cleaning system with a vacuum-tight work chamber. At the user’s option, it can be equipped for either two or three independent cleaning steps. The use of upright cylindrical flood tanks,which have been developed for fine cleaning applications, ensure an optimized fluid management, a high flexibility and improved process quality.
Offering a choice of two different work chamber sizes, the system enables you to make-up your individual specific batches. Therefore per-unit product costs are minimized. For your EcoCwave machine, Ecoclean offers an extensive range of options which are individually selectable to suit your requirements.
Key Features
- Universal versatility for diverse applications: in wet chemical part cleaning and surface treatment due to its two-/three-tank configuration capability
- Innovative equipment technology requiring minimum floorspace: only 5.5 m² (two-tank system)
- Reduced per-unit product costs: up to 30 % savings through volumetrically optimized batch make-up
- Optimized fluid management: upright cylindrical flood tanks, superior to rectangular tanks in preventing the formation of dirt traps, are backed by full-flow filtration and cleaning fluid treatment
- 100 % drying: achieved through a combination of hot-air and vacuum drying
- An extensive range of options: basic options, fine cleaning, equipment monitoring, fluid treatment, automation solutions
- User-friendly operation: advanced HMI operator panel for real-time monitoring of all system states, fault diagnostics and service intervals notification
The EcoCcube was conceived for the qualitatively effective, aqueous spray cleaning of machined and non-machined individual parts with diverse geometries. The very compact dimensions of the system meet the demand for more efficient cleaning technology when space is limited. This also makes it ideal for use as a local or stand-alone solution for intermediate cleaning, as well as for simpler cleaning tasks.
Work pieces soiled with oil and/or emulsion can be cleaned as individual or bulk components. The system works with a high circulating flow rate, both when cleaning and when rinsing. The cleaning effect of the medium used is supported through the rotation of the parts in the work chamber. The parts are dried by means of high-temperature air circulation without loss of vapor. This guarantees optimal cleaning results at a high throughput.

EcoCmax is a highly efficient cleaning system that offers two outstanding characteristics:
Extensive equipment for a wide range of applications
EcoCmax is a single-chamber aqueous cleaning system. A 3-stage cleaning process, including drying, takes place in the vacuum-proof work chamber. The set-up of the cleaning program can easily be adjusted to accommodate the degree or type of workpiece contamination. Whether for removing persistent dirt or fine cleaning, the flexible application of spray washing, injection flood washing (IFW) and ultrasonic cleaning – individually or in combination – ensures the cleanliness of parts in all cases.
High treatment performance of the cleaning media
Furthermore, the consistently high treatment performance of the cleaning media is outstanding. The filter system and cascade guidance can be flexibly adjusted by the operator. The system provides a consistently stable bath quality and thus reliable cleaning results.
For applications where high throughputs and / or high qualities of finish have to be achieved by fine cleaning in multistage aqueous immersion cleaning processes the Mega 86W cleaning system offers a wide variety of possibilities. On account of the various processes and features available the Mega 86W
cleaning system is used for mass-produced bulk items just as successfully as for fine cleaning of injection system parts or medical components.
