ALMCO products are made in the USA and serve a multitude of industries. ALMCO offers quality and customizable parts washing and drying equipment including:
Conveyor Washers
Available in three different types, Inline, U-Bend and Monorail, with customizable options to meet your specific needs.
Conveyor washers offer these standard features:
Optional features include:
Inline washers
Inline washers provide continuous, flow-through operation with wash, rinse, and blow-off. Rust inhibit and drying sections available. The belt may be a standard flat wire belt, rod belt, mesh covered belt or chain drive for moving parts directly or on pallets / tombstones. Many belt styles and widths are available, and the machines can be 100% custom designed for your application.
U-Bend washers
U-Bend washers are designed for use with a single operator or in an automated system where the direction of workflow needs to be changed. These washers offer all the custom design benefits of our inline units, but fewer belt options are available. Most units are built with a flat wire belt where the part is loose on top of the belt.
Monorail washers
Monorail washers are designed to match up to your existing system. These systems are typically designed with split hoods to allow your existing hangers to be used through the wash system. These washers are custom-designed to match the existing plant monorail system and are available with a large selection of options.
Cabinet Spray Washers
These versatile parts washers can be incorporated into manufacturing work cells. They can be loaded by hand or automatically by using a robot or powered conveyor system. Four different series are available.
ECW Series
ECW Series has one solution tank and one spray pump. The parts are placed directly or in baskets onto a turntable and rotate past a stationary spray pipe assembly.
RTW Series
RTW Series comes in several standard sizes. These washers have a lift-up lid and parts are placed on a turntable or fixture from overhead. These machines have several options and can be equipped with a powered lid for automation with a robotic loading system. The standard units have a turntable and manual start button with timer to control the cycle.
Standard features of the ECW and RTW Series include:
RPW Series
RPW Series feature a frontloading system onto a turntable or platform. These units can be configured for pass-through operation if they are to be placed in a continuous feed work cell and have powered, sliding doors that close once the part has been put in place to contain the spray.
RCW Series
RCW Series feature a front swing door that opens 180 degrees, allowing parts to be loaded by hand or via hoist onto a turntable. During the cycle the turntable rotates the part or basket to expose all sides to the spray and blow-off nozzles.
Standard features of the RPW and RCW Series include:
Available optional features for the RCW, RPW and RTW Series:
Immersion Washers
These washers clean components by submersing them in an agitated cleaning solution with ALMCO immersion washers. They are used to remove any contamination from the surfaces of parts exiting a production line or during a rebuild process. Three series are available.
EAW Series
EAW Series are mild steel, painted units used for solvent parts washing. This equipment cleans parts that are placed on a platform which is lowered into the tank and agitates up and down a distance of 4" at a rate of up to 30 times per minute. These cost-effective parts washers are ideal for small shops. This is an entry level machine, requiring minimum 110V power and 80 PSI air supply for operation.
PW Series
PW Series are Stainless-steel parts washers for cleaning parts using an aqueous cleaner. These have similar operation as the EAW Series but with heavy-duty agitation units. These washers may have powered rollers and be part of an automated production system with multiple stages and parts sensors for automatic operation.
Ultrasonic Series
Ultrasonic Series operate the same as the PW Series but are also equipped with ultrasonic transducers to loosen debris that is hard to displace by agitation alone. These washers can reach blind holes and internal areas that a spray or agitation washer may not reach. These washers are built for the toughest applications.
Standard features for all series include:
Optional features for all series include:
Rotary Drum Washers
These are ideal for washing parts in a mass production setting. These washers can accept parts in batches or continuously as they are produced in large numbers. As the parts are fed through the drum, they may pass through various soak, spray wash, drain, and spray rinse sections. Rust inhibit and drying sections available. The helix spacing and height is determined by the parts being washed. There are many drum material options making this type of washer ideal for small parts that would be difficult to wash in a belt, cabinet or agitation washer.
Standard features include:
Optional features include:
ALMCO parts washing and drying equipment also offers optional UL 508A Electrical Controls. UL® 508A is an Underwriters Laboratories directive for components and wiring practices as they pertain to industrial control panels.
