Typhoon AWW-1

Designed to clean up to 30 aircraft wheel hubs of any size in an 8-hour shift, the Proceco Typhoon ® -AWW is the proven choice of commercial airliners worldwide. The Typhoon®-AWW aircraft wheel cleaning system uses the latest aqueous cleaning technology to remove grease, rubber residues, dirt and brake dust from wheel hubs prior to inspection or overhaul. The Typhoon®-AWW was developed to meet your cleaning specifications. Consistent cleaning performance is achieved using aqueous-based solutions that fully comply with environmental regulations. A base model uses recirculating, hot alkaline solution that is sprayed on the wheel at high pressure to remove oil, grease and dirt. At the same time, the rotating brush removes accumulated rubber on the bead seat area. The wheels are then rinsed with non-recirculated fresh water, and the spent water is diverted to drain. To further improve the cleaning process, Proceco's unique slurry blast stage can be added to effectively remove the carbon deposited on wheels fitted with carbon brakes. Other options such as automatic loading and unloading are available to tailor the system to your needs. By replacing tedious manual cleaning and handling with a Typhoon®-AWW cleaning system, your service department will: increase productivity, obtain uniform and repeatable high cleanliness quality, and reduce risk of injury.
