Ecoclean UK, a supplier of machinery and services for industrial parts cleaning, precision parts cleaning, deburring and surface treatment, has announced its move to new premises in Alcester, UK.
The 2000-sq. ft new business premises, which are within convenient reach from all over the UK and the Irish Republic, house a showroom, service department and test facilities.
Trials at the test centre can be done in different wet-chemical cleaning technologies at no cost using authentic contaminated parts off the customer’s production line. For cleaning tests with water-based media such as neutral, alkaline and acidic formulation an EcoCcube and EcoCwave are available.
The spray cleaning machine EcoCcube is designed for the effective aqueous cleaning of workpieces with different geometries in two-stage processes (cleaning, rinsing and filtration) with hot air drying. The compact dimensions of the machine meet the demand for more efficient cleaning technology where space is limited, making it ideal for use as a local cell or stand-alone solution for intermediate and simpler cleaning tasks.
The powerful spray flood cleaning system EcoCwave is equipped with three tanks and a vacuum-tight work chamber. It can handle any cleaning task from preliminary and intermediate cleaning up to precision cleaning. The use of upright cylindrical flood tanks, which have been developed for fine cleaning applications, ensure optimised fluid management, a high flexibility and improved process quality. A combination of hot-air and vacuum drying enables 100% dry parts.
Tests for solvent-based cleaning processes can be done using a future-oriented EcoCcore with polar solvents. It can also be used with non-halogenated hydrocarbons. Cleaning and drying take place under full vacuum.
With these diverse options for conducting cleaning tests, Ecoclean UK covers a wide range of degreasing and cleaning tasks in practically all industrial sectors, as well as in remanufacturing. "It was also important for us to offer state-of-the-art testing facilities for the specific requirements in medical engineering, which we have succeeded in doing thanks to the machine equipment in the test centre," said Matt Cooper, who heads the UK branch of Ecoclean.
