Crate Washer

Product catalog summary

Overview
The JBT FTNON continuous washing machine is designed for the efficient cleaning of crates and trays, crucial for maintaining a hygienic production process. The machine features a heavy-duty transport chain that moves crates through washing and rinsing stages.

Washing Process
The washing system includes one or more compartments with spray nozzles that encircle the crate, ensuring thorough cleaning. The water is continuously circulated by a pump, and the distribution pipes can be adjusted for optimal results.

Filtering and Rinsing
Water from the washing compartment is filtered and returned to the pump tank, which includes a drain valve and cleaning hatches. The rinsing stage uses fresh water to remove any remaining residues, with water levels controlled manually.

Specifications

Product: Plastic crates
Dimensions: Min. 300x270x220 mm, Max. 650x450x370 mm
Capacity: Varies by model and contamination level, ranging from 400 to 2,400 crates per hour

Adjustability and Hygiene
The machine can be adjusted for different crate sizes, but only one size can be processed at a time. It features large cleaning hatches and sanitary couplings for easy maintenance.

Water Conservation
Double rows of plastic curtains at the infeed and outfeed minimize water loss.

Control and Safety
All controls are centralized in a single panel. Operators must manually remove crates at the outfeed to prevent them from falling.

Options and Enhancements

Additional washing compartments for increased cleaning stages
Dual transport chains for higher capacity
Steam or electrical heating for water temperature control
Belt filter for debris removal without production interruption

Technical Specifications
The machine is constructed from stainless steel and complies with international safety and hygiene standards. It offers various configurations to suit specific production needs.
