Optimal cleanliness for the next production step The surfaces of parts that are coated or measured after machining must be exceptionally clean. To ensure that even small workpieces such as valve components and indexable inserts are cleaned reliably, more and more manufacturers are turning to the quattroClean snow-jet technology. This cleans single parts effectively and efficiently in a fully automated and integrated process.

T

he demand for precision, process reliability and high efficiency is

costs. At the same time, the trend towards automating and digitizing

causing many companies to put the processes and technologies

processes is playing an ever-more important role. Consequently, even

they use to the test and parts cleaning is no exception. This involves

where it concerns smaller components, manufacturers prefer a dry and

achieving the necessary level of cleanliness for the next production

fully automated cleaning solution such as the quattroClean snow-jet

step, such as coating or measuring, reliably yet at reduced operating

technology from acp systems AG.

During the process, a robot uses a specific motion sequence to move the cleaning unit over the valve components at a defined distance. To ensure reliable cleaning results, the consistency of the jet is continuously monitored by a sensor system.
