MK Series

Immersion in a liquid bath is the simplest way of covering surfaces.It is indeed the most common form of parts washing.It is also the simplest way of covering irregular surfaces and reaching intricacies and the inside of hollow forms with a cleaning solution.RAMCO Immersion Technology begins with platform oscillation .With each oscillation of the platform elevator mechanical force consistently moves fluid over surfaces and disperses contaminants while applying fresh solution to newly exposed surfaces. Platform oscillation is an easy,reliable and cost effective way of accelerating cleaning action. The MK Series uses a simple and rugged pneumatically powered oscillating platform.Our standard pneumatic oscillation package includes a RAMCO Floating Cylinder.This patented design allows the entire cylinder to articulate (“float”) while in use.It greatly reduces wear.Each processing chamber has its own elevator to automatically transport the work in and out of solution.The elevator moves the parts into position and oscillates with either a short or long stroke.A two position selector switch is used for either long 5 to 9 inch or short 2 to 4 inch strokes.The long stroke is used to provide better flushing by forcing media (solution or hot air) though the working area of nested masses or complex part shapes with recessed passages and/or blind holes whereas the short stroke is used to provide quicker oscillations and faster processing of simpler parts.MKs take up a minimum of floor space and can handle a wide assortment of partsizes and configurations.A broad spectrum of cleanliness levels can be satisfied. Starting with the basic transport elevator you can integrate additional features to meet your requirements.From a small cell to a fully automated final precision cleaning line,the MK Series does it all.
