Locomotive Engine Washer - PROCECO LEW

PROCECO designs our LEW Locomotive Engine Washers to wash and rinse diesel engine blocks mounted onto a rotary fixture, with oil pans and other parts deposited directly onto the cabinet platform. A recirculating wash solution followed by a hot freshwater rinse guarantees removal of all dirt and chemical residues from the workpieces.

Washer operators place the engine block on a rotating fixture and then load the block/fixture assembly into the process cabinet with an overhead crane. A reciprocating spray nozzle frame travels the entire length of the cabinet, spraying from all sides, while the block/fixture rotates. After first cleaning all exterior and interior surfaces of the block, the programmed cleaning process activates a special flushing cycle to clean the interior of the block's oil galleries.

To process oil pans, crankshafts, racks of power assemblies, and baskets of miscellaneous steel parts, operators place them directly onto the loading platform inside the cabinet where the reciprocating nozzle frame thoroughly removes all dirt and residues.

Production rate: 1 engine block per hour or 1 load per hour
