The Guyson impact on fettling and cleaning
Blast cleaning has been associated with fettling and cleaning for many years and in many ways is still the same basic process that it was when first used
Speed up your cleaning with Guyson Euroblast
Recognised worldwide as of the highest quality, a Guyson Euroblast system can help you achieve new levels of precision, speed and efficiency in many industrial cleaning and maintenance operations
The deluge and turbulence produced completely saturates all component surfaces and penetrates deeply into all awkward recesses and normally difficult to reach areas.
The submerged phase of the operation provides the opportunity to use optional ultrasonic agitation, when needed, to achieve the highest cleaning standards.
At the end of the wash cycle, the cleaning chamber is emptied and flushed out to remove all traces of wash solution.
Rinsing is a repeat of the wash procedure using a heated rinse solution drawn from its own separate 450-litre tank.
Cycle time is usually shorter.
After draining off, a combination of heated air and blown compressed air thoroughly dry the components.
The component holding baskets are then manually removed from the chamber using the integral loading and unloading carriage.
This assists handling outside the machine via the flat folding door en route to a roller conveyor.
The three-stage cleaning sequence of the Allka-Jet is PLC controlled and provides wash, rinse and dry options in any combination.
To agitate the components there is a choice between a left and right tilting movement or a continuously revolving tumble-basket at speeds between 0.7 and 1.5 rpm.
Where cleaning volumes are greater, two and three modules are available and a larger model; the Allka-Jet 1200 can accommodate baskets up to 1200mm long in loads of up to 150kg.
