Parts and components cleaning

Heavy trucks

We build machines designed specifically to clean heavy-truck components
  • Long and very heavy parts

  • OEM standards: STD4189 – STD4540 – STD107-0002

  • Particulate cleanliness: ISO 16232 – VDA 19

  • Targeted cleaning of channels and lubrication holes

  • Integration in a robotic cell or designed for manual loading

  • Robust machines | stable process and simplified maintenance

Solving our customers' cleanliness challenges by defining the right cleaning solution together

Cleaning of heavy-truck parts and components

A crankshaft, an axle or a housing do not have the same contamination or the same requirements. We work after machining, before dimensional inspection and leak testing, and before assembly, according to your OEM standards STD4189, STD4540 and STD107-0002 and to ISO 16232 and VDA 19.

We have an in-house laboratory for gravimetric and particle size analysis.

Cleaning of long and heavy parts

Heavy-truck parts do not fit in a standard machine: we design the cleaning chamber around your part.

  • Horizontal chamber for an electric rear axle
  • Vertical chamber for a crankshaft, clean and dry in 3 minutes with no particle larger than 500 microns.
  • Flexible fixtures: several part numbers cleaned within the same machine

Part-by-part washing

In this sector, parts are heavy, expensive and varied: gears, connecting rods, suspension arms. A part-by-part flow, in step with your machining line, avoids baskets and work-in-progress and limits the risk of contamination. Each part receives the cycle and fixture its cleanliness specification requires.

  • Heavy and long parts: robot loading, cycle under 3 minutes for a 120 kg crankshaft and a working chamber over 2 meters long for an axle.
  • Many part numbers: dedicated fixtures and spray systems adapted to every reference.
  • Production rates: loading and unloading during machining time.
  • Custom tooling fully designed in 3D CAD

Integration in a robotic cell

A heavy-truck line produces many variants in small and medium series, with heavy parts moved by robot or handling equipment. The washing machine must fit in without reworking the line.

The MecanoFAST fits between machining and inspection or assembly:

  • Compact: about 2 m² of floor space, as close as possible to the production flow
  • One or several stations for loading and unloading, with full access for the robot
  • Cycle matched to your production rate
  • Manual mode possible
