Parts washing at most plants is an afterthought, a
necessary operation that is seen as secondary to the
main business of parts making. Therefore, washing
equipment is often given little thought. Not so at New
Vista; although we specialize in several types of
machinery systems, we have sold more production
parts washing machines than any other type of
equipment. That experience has allowed us to
develop standard models that are easily
customized to a particular application, while
always maintaining signature features such
as oriented washing (to better target
problem areas) and ease of adaptability
to existing production lines.
Model T
...with auger conveyance
! New Vista is often asked to provide cell-bridging material handling.
Here, a New Vista specialty conveyor catches D-size battery cans
coming directly out of a transfer press, inverts them, then transfers
them into the New Vista washer.
! After wash, cans are chuted onto conveyor.
! Cycle - 150 parts per minute.
! Washes, rinses and dries. Cans emerge spotless, in only 12 feet
of conveyor length.
! Here, part is removed from washer. Next, it will be placed on
customer's conveyor.
We Don't Cut Corners.
All Machinery is Built for Continuous
Multi-Shift Operation.
Tank Units
Tank Units
! Stainless steel construction with two covers for
! Quick-disconnect electrical (Sealtite) and fluid lines
easy access.
! Capacities up to 200 gallons.
! Pump motor starts at 1 H.P. and goes up for larger
applications.
allow for caster-mounted unit to quickly roll away for
cleaning. Extra self-contained tank units are available
for production runs that can't tolerate downtime.
! An oversize chip basket (strainer) catches the larger
contaminants
! Baffles
! Drain valve allows for quick purge of tank.
! Optional: Fluid level switches control automatic water
makeup
! Optional: Dual skimmers if oil contamination is a
factor.
! Optional: Large-wattage heating elements warm water
to 160 degrees. Optional tank insulation allows for
higher water temperatures or less energy consumption
at same temperature.
Conveyor
Strip Liquid
! Variable speed up to 6 parts per second.
! Overload clutch protects the drive if a jam occurs
! Adjustable side rails maintain orientation of part to
! Targeted shop air or, for larger parts, high velocity
provide for targeted cleaning of key areas. Swing-away
in-process access door allows for periodic part
inspection.
Wash and Rinse Compartment
! Targeted nozzles clean parts on these oriented-parts
washers. Over-ported manifold allows for future
supplement of additional nozzles.
! Lexan or stainless compartment access doors are easily
lifted off
Bag Filter at Pump Disharge
! The bag unit filters out smaller particles from 1 to 100
microns (depending on application).
! Inexpensive bags are easily replaced.
regenerative blown air removes most liquid to
prevent contamination of rinse (after wash) or to aid
drying (after rinse).
Dryer
! 4,500 watt (or larger) dryer quickly vaporizes water
from part.
Cooling Capability
! Reduce heat of parts after drying to allow next-step
processing.
Optional: Ground Fault Device
! To protect in case of short circuit.
Optional: Automated Loading and Unloading
! Parts can be chuted into and out of washer; or New
Vista will design and build application-specific
material handling.
