PERO ROTIMAT 3/U Aqueous Rotating Basket Washing Systems

The Rotating Basket Washing Systems ROTIMAT 3/U are compact, self-standing systems, that are transportable as a single unit. The factory floor is a suitable set-up surface. Special preparation is not necessary. Simply connect the various utilities, after that the mchine can be filled, heated and put into operation. All models are filled, heated and undergo a test run before despatch.
 

  • For small and medium batches.

  • For washing and rinsing.

  • With PLC - control and various units for automation.

  • Maximum basket size: 660 x 480 x 300 mm
    (26" x 18.9" x 11.8").

  • Maximum batch weight: 150 kg (330 lbs.).

  • Heating time of the system: approximately 2 hours

This machine that switches from washing to rinsing offers, by cleaning smaller and medium sized parts, an economical alternative to bigger systems. The cleaning medium recommended for use is a sprayable cleaning solution (alkaline, slightly acid or neutral). Stainless steel and nickel-plated components are used, and clear water can be used in the rinse circuit.

The rotating basket cleaning system works with two separate wash systems. After one another flows the following work operation automatically:

  • Washing with detergent strength 2-5%
  • Rinsing with detergent strength 0.5-1%

Through the cleaning the dirt, chips and oil dispersion is removed. The connected rinsing bath improves the cleaning effect and removes at the same time the cleaning detergent residue. Depending on the detergent, a cleaning result is achieved to allow painting or gas-nitrite hardening of the parts.

The wash and rinse temperatures coincide with the cleaning task. They are maintained at a level between 140° (60° C) and 158° (70° C) degrees Fahrenheit. The cycle times are programmable from 0 to 999 seconds.

The part's own residual heat energy helps to achieve the drying of the work pieces.

The drying process is improved through the exhaust of the water vapor mist, and at the same time, supply of room air into the chamber. The water vapor is exhausted through an integrated exhaust pipe and blown into the open air. When an aqueous medium is used, the unit does not fall under state and federal environmental compliance regulations for solvent machines.


Rotating Basket Washing System ROTIMAT 3/U

WORK ROUTINE

  • Manual or automatic supply of cleaning goods. Small parts and thin goods in baskets, single parts on racks or tranport pallets.
  • Automatic closing of the main door to the work chamber
  • Automatic operation of the cleaning programs
  • Spray washing
  • Spray rinising
  • Rotation drying
  • Automatic opening of the main door after program completion
  • Manual or automatic removal of the cleaned goods

 

ROTIMAT 3/U STANDARD DESIGN

  • Separate piping circuits for wash and rinse tanks
  • Heating the detergent tanks with electric immersion heaters. Non-standard power supply uses a heating register
  • Opening and closing the work chamber with pneumatically operated main door
  • Filter basket with fabric enclosure to catch the chips in the wash and rinse circuits
  • Radial ventilator to exhaust the water vapor over an integrated exhaust pipe into the air
  • Electrical cabinet with PLC control. Simple program input and editing
  • Basket rotation protected by slip clutch

 

CONTROLS
 
The PLC control in the electrical cabinet holds the following programs:
  • General work and operation programs
  • Machine diagnostic program with clear text display and operations guide
  • Selection of programs, operation time and material movement in the work chamber

The operation panel contains the important service and control elements that are easy to understand, recognize and locate. From this input location the selected programs, time and handling temperatures are entered and controlled. Quick error analysis through a clear text display is possible from this location.
