– Type of part: dimensions and complexity of parts (shapes, cavities, hard-to-reach areas, etc.)
– Cleaning process: solvent, aqueous, hybrid, ultrasonic, etc.
– Standards to be met: to comply with industry standards
If you need support or advice, our teams can advise and guide you towards the machine best suited to your needs, to ensure optimal cleaning of your parts.
chevron_right Our product lineIn order to best treat small parts or parts with complex geometries, our industrial cleaning machines use adapted technologies to eliminate all contaminants:
– Ultrasonic cleaning
– Aqueous solutions, solvents or hybrid processes
– High-pressure spraying
To guarantee cleaning that complies with the standards of each sector, the machines are precisely parameterized beforehand, whatever the type of part or industrial field.
chevron_right Our case studiesOur industrial cleaning machines achieve the highest levels of cleanliness in all industrial sectors. Thanks to our expertise, we can eliminate all contaminants. Our team will work with you to carry out customized cleanliness tests to ensure compliance with your specifications. This approach combines industrial performance with compliance with standards.
chevron_right Our case studiesThe time it takes to clean an industrial part depends on a number of factors, including the size and complexity of the part. The type of contamination to be removed and the level of cleanliness required are also decisive factors in determining the time required for a cleaning cycle. At Mecanolav, we tailor each machine to optimize your productivity while guaranteeing optimal cleaning. Cycles can vary from a few tens of seconds to more than ten minutes for large parts or those with very complex geometries. Our teams study each project to find the best compromise between performance and quality.
chevron_right Our case studiesWe design our parts cleaning machines to be as eco-efficient as possible, optimizing water consumption, as well as that of detergents or solvents, depending on the type of cleaning used. The exact consumption depends on your project: number and size of parts, type of contaminants to be removed and type of cleaning. With the help of a recycling and filtration system, we can reduce the quantity of consumables while maintaining quality cleaning that meets your requirements.
chevron_rightOur parts cleaning machines are used in many industrial sectors, including:
– Automotive: cleaning of engine parts, transmissions, tooling, prior to assembly or painting.
– Aircraft: sensitive components, light alloys, exposed parts with high cleanliness requirements.
– Medical: instruments, implants, parts that must comply with strict hygiene and biosafety standards. Medical: instruments, implants, parts subject to strict hygiene and biosafety standards.
– Railway: heavy mechanical parts, components subject to weathering and severe mechanical stress.
We also have customers in the defense and medical sectors.
chevron_right Your field of activityDepending on the part to be cleaned, its degree of soiling and the level of cleanliness required prior to assembly, there are various cleaning solutions available. Most often, you can opt for a modified solvent-based cleaning or an aqueous solution, depending on the nature of the contaminants to be removed (grease, oil, particles…).
Our parts cleaning machines can be adapted to your requirements by setting different washing parameters (temperature, duration, agitation, drying, etc.) for degreasing that complies with automotive industry standards.
chevron_right Our case studiesTo guarantee the reliability and longevity of engine and transmission components, industrial cleaning is essential. Our technologies enable us to reach the hardest-to-reach areas using mechanical agitation, spraying, sprinkling or ultrasound. This ensures compliance with ISO and VDA standards for automotive components. We recommend regular monitoring and cleanliness tests to ensure optimized degreasing in line with automotive industry standards.
chevron_rightHighly effective for cleaning aeronautical components, ultrasonic cleaning reaches narrow, delicate areas using ultrasonic waves in a liquid bath located in the machine’s working chamber. The tiny bubbles generated by the ultrasound remove contaminants without risk of weakening the part.
Other benefits include
– Precise cleaning of even the most complex parts
– No deformation or abrasion of even the most fragile components
– Automated process, reducing labor and processing time
– Meets aeronautical cleanliness standards, ensuring long-lasting, safe parts
Our solutions cover several technologies to meet all needs:
Detergent (water-based): by spraying or immersion, for common mechanical parts.
Ultrasound: to remove encrusted contaminants and clean complex geometries.
CNP/vacuum solvent: for deep, fast and residue-free cleaning, suitable for critical parts.
Hybrid: combination of several processes in a single machine.
Detergent cleaning uses water, often combined with specific detergents, applied by spraying or immersion.
Recommended for:
Mechanical parts from mass production,
Greasy or particulate contaminants,
CNp technology ensures ultra-efficient cleaning of complex geometries such as grooves, blind holes
and narrow channels without damaging the surface of the parts.
Cleaning of capillary components
Desoldering after additive manufacturing
Disinfection of medical devices (DM)
A hybrid machine combines several technologies (e.g. ultrasonic + detergent, or detergent + solvent).
Interesting when:
Parts contain various contaminants (grease + particles),
Application requires several levels of cleanliness,
It depends:
Water-based: suitable for many contaminants and large volumes.
Solvent-based: more effective on heavy greases and complex oils, critical cleanliness requirements.
Our experts can help you choose the process best suited to your parts, contaminants and quality requirements.
Our equipment efficiently removes:
Greases, oils, polishing pastes,
Metal chips, dusts, oxides,
Foundry or surface treatment residues,
Critical fine particles (to ISO 16232 / VDA 19).
We recommend using:
Demineralized or reverse osmosis water to avoid mineral deposits,
Combined with an anti-corrosion treatment for sensitive parts (steel, medical instruments).
Aspersion: high-pressure jets of water/detergent → effective on external surfaces.
Immersion: parts immersed in a tank with agitation or ultrasound → more suitable for complex geometries and internal cavities.
We design cleaning machines for bulky or atypical parts, combining our advanced know-how with tailor-made technical support. There are several solutions for this type of part:
– Multi-module baths & tunnels: to immerse or transport parts, while ensuring a flow rate adapted to your production
– Spraying system: with adjustable jets and programming adapted to your part.
– A made-to-measure solution: each project requires support and testing to ensure that it is in line with your needs and your industrial sector.
Thanks to our “Smart Cleaning” approach, each project is carefully studied: we analyze your parts, your pollutants, your cleaning requirements, then propose the optimized machine and process.
