Automatic closed-loop washing machine for HDPE cups
A luxury brand needs to wash HDPE cups (95 × 60 × H 90 mm), loaded and unloaded by hand. The cycle must last 15 to 20 minutes at 30 to 35 °C, and the machine must fit through a 900 mm door.
A stainless steel rotary table holds 72 cups at 750 mm above the floor. It turns with the lid open, so operators can load without bending over. During the cycle, spray ramps wash the parts in a closed loop, then a network of compressed-air nozzles helps dry them.
The IC3 machine, a model in the ECO range, is delivered in several sections and reassembled on site in half a day. It includes a detergent dosing pump, a vapor condenser that needs no roof duct, and a Siemens PLC with a 7-inch touch screen.
