Clean mixing tanks for paint production.

The machine handles automatically the transfer of the generated waste water to the treatment unit.

The Sfiga

The customer has the need to wash about 10 mixing tanks per day, the initial situation involved 1 operator full time washing manually using high pressure washer. This meant a cost that was exceeding € 250 per day (€ 55,000 per year). In addition, the working conditions for the worker were not acceptable, which meant that many times the final tank quality was not as expected and the washbay quite untidy and slippery.

The Solution

Basca analyze facts and figures of the present situation, suggesting possible solutions to wash the containers in automatic way. After that we opted for Basca Washing Machine equipped with a 200 bar pump to spray the water on the tank surface granting a perfect cleaning in about 5 to 8 min/tank. Together we installed a waste water recovery system that allowed to recycle and reuse the washing water again and again for further washing cycles, reducing the related costs. The whole system is managed by a single operator less than 2 hours/day.
