PROCECO manufactures heavy-duty, automatic parts washers, degreasers, and parts cleaning systems specifically designed for railway / transit maintenance processes in depots and component manufacturing facilities.
Our industrial parts washers are engineered to clean components to spec in a short cycle time without the use of harmful solvents.
PROCECO’s solutions include locomotive truck and engine washers, heavy-duty spray cabinets, heavy-duty power-spray type belt washers, conveyor washers, and high-pressure deburring systems.
Typical applications for PROCECO equipment within the railway and transit sector
We offer component-cleaning equipment that is specifically designed to clean the following components:
- Bogies / trucks: locomotives and rail cars for freight, light rail, and metro
- Wheelsets
- Diesel engine blocks and components
- Belts
- Power assemblies
- Traction motors
- Gearcases
- Main generators
- Bearings
- Axles
A typical cleaning process consists of spraying parts with a high volume of pressurised, hot cleaning solution of water and a small quantity of detergent to remove oils, grease, carbon, road dirt, and other contaminants from component surfaces. Additional stages such as rinsing and drying can be added to complement the cleaning cycle. The water-based cleaning solution is recirculated for re-use to preserve water, detergents, and energy.
