The JENFAB Oscillating Basket Washer (OBW) is a front loading spray washer designed to fit into cellular work stations for Lean Manufacturing operations. This machine will remove machining oils and lubricants, as well as all chips resulting from the machining operation. Environmentally safe aqueous detergents make this machine suitable for Green Manufacturing facilities.

In operation, the operator places the machined parts onto the carrier and initiates the start cycle. The carrier moves into the spray cabinet and the clear door closes. The spray wash cycle begins and the carrier moves back and forth through the sprays for the entire cleaning process. Sprays are located above and below the parts and thoroughly clean all ID and OD surfaces. Chips are collected in easily removable strainer baskets to keep the solution tank clean. Filters can be added as required for the sprays to meet higher milligram/millipore cleaning specifications.

After washing is complete, a powerful blow off removes the excess water, the door opens and the carrier returns the parts to the load station.

This machine is a huge energy saver, fewer sprays are required and cycle times are greatly reduced because the parts move back and forth in a confined space directly under the spray jets. There is no wasted movement as with turntable cabinet washers and the parts automatically load and unload to free up the operator. With fewer spray jets required, the amount of spray is reduced, meaning fewer BTU's and less KW of heat is required to produce cleaner parts.

Options can be included for adding a rinse tank of final fresh water or DI rinse. Filtration, disc, belt, or coalescing oil removal systems can be built in.
