Maximum process reliability and finish quality through precise dry steam cleaning
The automotive industry demands highest levels of cleanliness, precision and process stability. Whether in engine manufacturing, transmission technology, electronics assembly, chassis production or battery module manufacturing – even the smallest contaminants can cause malfunctions, impair further processing or lead to rejections.
At the same time, OEMs and suppliers are under enormous pressure to improve efficiency: short cycle times, complex component geometries, high levels of automation and rising quality standards demand reliable, fast and reproducible cleaning processes – ideally, directly in the production line and without additional downtimes.
Typical challenges:
- Oil, grease and coolant residues on components, assemblies and devices.
- Dust, particles and abrasion particles in sensitive manufacturing areas uch as electronic systems, e-mobility or precision assembly.
- Silicone or release agent residues that impair adhesion in bonding and coating processes.
- Complex geometries that are hard to reach with water or manual cleaning.
- Chemical-intensive cleaning processes, which increase costs, environmental pollution and safety precautions.
- High downtime periods due to manual pre-cleaning and intermediate cleaning or dismantling of components.
- Quality problems during painting, bonding, sealing or assembling due to inadequately cleaned surfaces.
