Energy Industry
Another industry we’re proud to work with is the energy sector. Everything related to energy sourcing falls in this category, and many types of energy sources are available today, such as wind, natural gas, nuclear, solar, geothermal, fossil fuel, and more. It shows they utilize different equipment, devices, and machines to aid their operations.
Their systems are constantly exposed to various stressful environments, negatively impacting their overall quality. These parts can quickly wear out, especially if not properly maintained or cleaned. They can be caked with grime and other heavy contaminants, which require immediate washing to prevent breakdowns.
Typical applications of industrial parts washers in the energy industry:
- Fracking equipment
- Compressors
- Turbines
- Heat exchangers
- Valves
- Condensers
- Reducers
Only some components of an industrial washer can work within the energy sector. It’s best to determine if your part is compatible with our system to ensure that you can maximize its potential.
Aerospace Industry
The aerospace industry is very strict with its applications. Everything must be reliable, especially since safety and quality are of the highest concern in these settings. If a part is not working according to its standards, then the entire system is compromised and can result in more significant damage.
It’s why taking preventive measures is necessary for their equipment or machines. It includes thorough and consistent maintenance, which includes using an aerospace parts washer that adheres to aerospace standards. These are designed to handle the contaminants and debris that can compromise the part’s performance.
Typical applications of industrial parts washers in the aerospace industry:
- Transmission components
- Engine components
- Breaks and landing gear components
- Wheel hubs and bearings
- Propeller axles and blades
Due to the demanding environment in the aerospace industry, the parts mentioned above should be in tip-top shape. It can be achieved only with the help of a proper industrial cleaning system.
Automotive Industry
The automotive industry is vast, and the same goes for its components. Different parts require thorough cleaning, and an automotive parts washer is essential if you want them to be ready before manufacturing. However, components are also washed since they’re constantly exposed to the outside elements on the road.
Oil, grease, and lubricants are present in these facilities, and the different automotive parts must be washed properly to ensure cleanliness and optimal performance. Plus, any dust or particles must be removed so that the part’s integrity and quality are not compromised while maintaining dependability in the long run.
Typical applications of industrial parts washers in the automotive industry:
- Engine components
- Turbocharger
- Fuel system
- Brake components
- Steering components
- Transmission components
- Plastic dunnage pallets and trays
- Drivetrain components
With the proper chemicals and cleaning tools equipped in the parts washer, these parts will look and perform as new again. Dirt can do much damage, especially if not taken care of immediately, but an industrial washer can prevent that from happening.

Our Products
Specialty Washers
Specialty washers are clean and protect critical components in various industries. We have cleaning systems available for most part sizes and cleaning requirements.
Conveyor Washers
Conveyor washers are one of the most popular types of industrial parts washers. They are known for their efficiency and ability to quickly clean large quantities of parts. They use a conveyor belt to move parts through a series of cleaning stages.
Depending on the type of conveyor washer, parts can be washed with water, detergent, or other cleaning solutions.
Our conveyor washers are applicable in manufacturing and assembly environments where large quantities of parts need cleaning regularly.
Turntable Washers
Our turntable washers are a type of industrial parts washer that use a rotating turntable to wash and rinse components. It can be either top-loading or front-loading, depending on the application.
Turntable washers typically have multiple spray nozzles that evenly distribute cleaning and rinsing solutions over the component’s surface that needs cleaning.
Our turntable washers are used in many industries, including automotive, aerospace, railroads, and ocean freight.
Immersion Washers
Try an immersion system when the recirculated spray isn’t enough to solve your cleaning challenges. Immersion usually takes longer but can clean internal passages that spray cannot. We offer even systems that combine a spray and immersion process to provide the best of both worlds. With our rotating spray immersion washer, you can clean, rinse, and flush 20 cylinder blocks.
Super Washers
These are perfect for use in industries where there is a need for heavy-duty cleaning, such as automotive and aerospace manufacturing. Super washers use high-pressure water jets to remove even the most stubborn dirt and grime from surfaces, equipped with special filters that trap contaminants and prevent them from being recirculated back into the environment.
