Dunnage washing has come a long way in the last couple decades. Originally only utilized by the automotive industry, dunnage washing has grown to include just about every industrial manufacturing industry in the Detroit area and around the world. And as the need for specific dunnage washing applications has evolved, so has the array of available dunnage cleaning and drying technologies.
As the Detroit area’s premier dunnage washing company, Clark Logic keeps abreast of the latest equipment and processes in the dunnage field. This enables Clark Logic to offer our customers in a wide array of manufacturing industries – including automotive, aerospace, defense, and more – the best practices and prices in customized, turnkey, outsourced dunnage washing solutions.
In this article the Detroit dunnage washing experts at Clark Logic discuss the latest dunnage washing technologies available, that we utilize to ensure you receive the cleanest returnable industrial containers, with the fastest turn-around times at the lowest prices in the dunnage washing industry.
Types of Dunnage Washing Equipment
Depending upon the type of industry, part handling containers can become soiled with oil, grease, coolant, chips, dust, particles and even exhaust, gasses, or fumes. And when clean parts are placed into soiled (or damp) totes, they are subject to contamination and/or corrosion.
But “one size does NOT fit all” when it comes to container cleaning. Because of the wide array of contaminates and broad range of container configurations, specialized dunnage washing equipment should be selected for each job.
Here are a few of the dunnage washing systems, equipment and features available:
- Powered dunnage washing conveyor systems
- Manual “push through” dunnage washing machines
- Powered mating feed/escapement conveyors
- Adjustable pitch gravity rollers
- Adjustable directional spray nozzles
- High powered pumps and sprayers
- Multi-lane dunnage / container washing
- High power ambient blow-off mechanisms
- Dunnage contamination sensors
- Electric solution heating elements
- Thermostat controlled heating
- Steam heating dunnage washing systems
- Micro filtration w/ adjustable micron size range
