Parts Washer for Helicopter Gear Boxes

Industrial Parts Washer, Return-to-Operator Style

A leading manufacturer of civil and military helicopters needed to clean gear boxes to the highest level.

This RTO-R-6000-PCS washer rotates the parts around a horizontal axis as they are being sprayed to flush out complex passages. A dolly transports the parts in and out of the spray chamber. This system has four tanks and a five stage cleaning cycle… a wash stage followed by three rinse stages and a dry stage. The company has reported to us that before this machine was implemented into their cleaning program they only had a 20% parts approval rating.  After only 6 months, they are up to a 65% approval rating and are on track to reach an 85% approval rating in the coming months.
