Recovery Washing

Washing

The SWS series press parts washing systems are large, industrial duty, enclosed chamber wash systems designed for washing flexographic and gravure press parts and a variety of other applications.

The converting industry, using both gravure and flexographic presses, has a need for minimizing make-ready time while reducing employee exposure to cleaning chemicals. PRI's SWS press part washing systems meet these needs as well as reduce chemistry costs, reduce manpower requirements and reduce environmental emissions.

All parts washing systems are "end load" designs in which parts are loaded onto mobile carts and pushed into the unit for a four step cleaning process. Full automation allows operating personnel to perform other duties while the system is in operation.

Solvent based systems can include integral solvent recovery systems allowing continuous reuse of the solvent wash solution. An integral VOC reduction system captures solvent fumes for reuse minimizing fugitive emissions.

PRI can provide non-flammable cleaning solvents that have low emmissions and will clean solvent and water based inks, adhesives and top coats. Ask for information about HCS.

To remove water based chemistries, PRI manufactures washers that use water and detergents as the cleaning solution.
