Overview

Turbex Tunnel Wash machines are constructed from stainless steel and are designed for heavy duty use. The machines have angled heaters that can be removed without draining the tanks for ease during maintenance. Wash and rinse stages are incorporated as required and compressed air blow off can be provided between stages, with the blowing nozzles reciprocating from side to side during operation.

Operation

After moving through the pre-wash chamber, the parts travel through the washing zone. The belt speed is variable, but a typical time during this zone is two minutes.

From the washing chamber, the parts move through a drip zone and then to an optional blow off stage with reciprocating compressed air nozzles. If the machine is wash only with no hot air dryer, the parts then exit from the machine.

If there are further stages, the process is repeated, and the parts will then either exit from the machine or travel through the hot air drying chamber.
