Robowash

The Vixen design team work closely alongside the customer to create the best machine for their requirements. The Robowash comes with a Siemens control system, which is very easy to use and has a double skinned and insulated construction to reduce running costs.

Designed around the application

The Vixen design team work closely alongside the customer to create the best machine for their requirements. The Robowash comes with a Siemens control system, which is very easy to use and has a double skinned and insulated construction to reduce running costs.

Process capability

This washing machine is fully automated complete with robotic armsThe Robowash is capable of achieving less than a 60 second cycle time, carrying out 3 processes while a part is being loaded/unloaded.

Production fit

The Vixen design team work closely alongside the customer to create the best machine for their requirements. The Robowash comes with a Siemens control system, which is very easy to use and has a double skinned and insulated construction to reduce running costs.

Configuration flexibility

The loading bay features bespoke fixings that can be manufactured to any requirement. The light curtain acts as an important safety feature which is also located within the loading bay. If the light curtain is broken then this stops the machine from indexing. You can also have the choice of loading manually or using a robot to take this machine to the next step of being completely automated.

How the process comes together

STAGE 1

Load the components

Place parts in a basket, fixture, drum, conveyor or dedicated carrier.

STAGE 2

Wash and degrease

Heated aqueous chemistry is sprayed, circulated or immersed around the load.

STAGE 3

Rinse or pretreat

Add rinsing or another treatment stage when the downstream process requires it.

STAGE 4

Dry and unload

Complete the cycle with the appropriate drying method and transfer clean parts downstream.

ConfigurationStandard and application-specific options
SizingConfirmed for the selected model and load

Custom configurations are available. eChem and Vixen can evaluate working dimensions, part handling, process stages and automation for your application.

Features and application options

  • Fully automated
  • Robotic arms
  • 3 processes in less than 60 seconds
  • Siemans control
  • Insulated construction
  • Light curtain for safety
  • Drying robots complete with 5 nozzle head
  • Washes with a pressure of 136 bar
