Washing and Microcleaning

Innovative System

The team of Ecotecne specialists has devised an innovative high cavitation ultrasound washing system for cleaning and washing moulds for hollow glass. According to Ecotecne, this system developed in our laboratories is a microcleaning process that is faster than traditional cleaning and is achieved by immersion in ultrasound tanks containing alkaline and acid solutions.  Patented ®

Industrial Automation

The entire system is PLC-controlled and uses robotized carriages. It is compact, practical, flexible, cheap and environmentally friendly. The moulds are guaranteed against wear for over 80% of their average life cycle. According to Ecotecne, the entire process complies with all environmental standards. 

Ultrasound versus Sandblasting

ULTRASOUND
SANDBLASTING

+70-80 % mould lifetime

Progressive mould wear

Preserves mould geometry

Abrasive surface deterioration

Stable bottle weight

Progressive bottle weight increase

Reduced polishing activities

Higher polishing workload

Lower reject rates

Higher reject generation

Cleaner workshop environment

Fine dust generation

Easier mould repair operations

More difficult repair adhesion

Lower environmental impact

Higher waste disposal costs

±2.200.000 bottles

±1.000.000 bottles

Maintain brillance and smooth flow of forming glass inside the mould

Mechanically aggressive with altered roughness of moulds

Saving of row material due to unchanged dimensions of the mould cavity
