Washing HDPE cups on a 72-position rotary table

Automatic closed-loop washing machine for HDPE cups

Project specifics

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.

72-cup rotary table

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.

Delivered in sections, reassembled in half a day

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.
