Air Cleaning Systems Shows Machine
At MACH 2012, on Stand 5280, Air Cleaning Systems (acs) will be demonstrating the mobile, hot, low pressure machine tool cleaning system from PH-Cleantec, Germany, that has simplified the tedious task of machine tool cleaning since its launch in 2009.
The Cleantec SRK1000-AS is an innovative machine that heats water or machine coolant to 95 degrees C within a minute to conduct machine cleaning operations. The 1000SRK-AS works at an operating pressure from 3 to 7.5 Bar to clean components and machine tools and since its launch it has reportedly been significantly reducing machine shop maintenance and cleaning procedures.
This unit, for which acs are the official UK agent, is ideal for manufacturers that use a variety of materials on machine tools and cannot allow swarf contamination from one material to the next. The 1000SRK-AS will rapidly remove any swarf or excess material eliminating the risk of contamination. For maintenance departments, the extremely mobile cleaning unit can be wheeled to any machine in a production area within minutes, credit to its lightweight 55 kg frame. To further improve access to machine tools, the unit has a 5 m suction hose, 5 m power cable and 5 m lance cable attached to a standard 600 mm lance.
The flexibility of the 1000SRK-AS enables maintenance/service engineers to comfortably load/unload the unit from a vehicle or storage facility direct to the area to be cleaned with exceptional ease. Once in place, the compact mobile unit that has no fluid tank can suck liquid directly from the machine tool coolant sump or can be connected to an external water tap providing a variable spray water volume from 1 to 1.8litre/per minute. This provides maintenance staff with a solution to removing stubborn marks, oil, swarf and stains from the area to be cleaned. It is this mobility and extreme deep cleaning capability that makes the 1000SRK-AS the ideal solution for thoroughly cleaning machine tools at planned maintenance downtimes.
