Tunnel Washers
Highly effective and energy-efficient cleaning of all plastic crate types: Line capacity up to 3,500 crates/hour, Extremely low water and energy consumption, High uptime and OEE, 2 or 4-side label removal. Brüel Systems tunnel washers provide high cleaning efficiency for foldable, bale arm, and rigid crates. With a line capacity up to 3,500 crates an hour, efficient 2 or 4-side label removal, and robust construction from stainless steel, our tunnel washers ensure high uptime and OEE (overall equipment effectiveness). They are service friendly and require little maintenance, lowering TCO and maintenance costs. Tunnel washers are carefully designed to match each individual application and typically include a dissolving section, a washing section, and an after-rinse section. Crates are transported through each section on conveyors before proceeding to the next process step.
Tunnel washers can be configured for a wide range of water temperatures, nozzle pressures, and detergent types, and the high-grade stainless steel facilitates cleaning procedures.
Designed for extremely low water consumption, our tunnel washers use unique screw filters to filter used washing water, allowing it to be recycled for the dissolving process. As a result, water consumption per crate is very low.
Brüel Systems recommends using spin dryers in container processing lines, as this is the most effective and energy-efficient drying method. However, tunnel washers can be fitted with blow dryer systems if needed.
