At the end of the tunnel is the container dewatering section, where air dryers and heat dryers are used to remove residual water from the containers. The air dryer is equipped with a self-developed wind knife device that also adopts a surrounding layout. It can convert the airflow generated by the compressor into a high-speed air curtain in sheet form to strip off the remaining water on the container surface. The heat dryer has an additional heating device that utilizes the heat from the air curtain to accelerate moisture evaporation, thereby improving dehydration efficiency.
The process design is reasonable, with a washing capacity of up to 1200 units per hour. High-temperature and high-pressure water washing without detergents ensures that thoroughly cleaned containers can come into contact with food. The nozzles are arranged in a surrounding layout for deep sterilization with no blind spots, ensuring comprehensive cleaning without omissions. The track travel speed is adjustable according to the degree of dirt on the containers and the customer's cleaning requirements. The washing water temperature is adjustable, compatible with heat-sensitive containers, ensuring damage-free cleaning.
Mechanized batch washing reduces the need for personnel. Recirculating filtered water supply allows for the reuse of water resources. Steam is directly mixed with water for heating, achieving high thermal energy efficiency. The air inlet of the dryer is located inside the tunnel, allowing for the recirculation and reuse of thermal energy.
The equipment adheres to the design philosophy of high protection and easy cleaning, with the entire machine being waterproof and moisture-proof, allowing for direct high-pressure water washing, chemical cleaning, steam sterilization, etc. It features seamless welding, panel polishing, and concealed wiring within pipes, eliminating hygienic dead zones and making it less likely for dirt to remain after cleaning. Components such as side panels, piping, and nozzles in the tunnel are designed for easy removal, enabling thorough internal cleaning. Water curtains are installed at the tunnel entrances and exits to prevent water and steam leakage, maintaining workshop hygiene.
The equipment is made of high-quality materials, with meticulous craftsmanship and stable functions, ensuring a long service life. The entire machine is constructed from 304-grade stainless steel, which is rust-resistant and corrosion-proof. Electrical components are sourced from international brand manufacturers, ensuring quality. The electrical cabinet is waterproof and dustproof, equipped with overload and leakage protection devices, providing a high safety factor. The PLC has strong anti-interference capabilities and stable performance.
The equipment uses a touchscreen for human-machine interaction, replacing traditional control panels for easier operation. The graphical interface is simple and intuitive, displaying key parameters in real time to assist user decision-making. The system has a parameter memory function that allows quick recall without the need for repeated setup. The equipment can be interfaced with various automated devices to form a multi-functional production line.
