Fluidized bed cleaning

The fluidized bed cleaning of components is an effective process that is used in various industrial sectors to clean components. In this process, the components are placed in a fluidized bed in which cleaning media, such as granules or abrasives, come into contact with the surfaces through targeted flow movements.

The advantage of fluidized bed cleaning is that the cleaning media are evenly distributed on the components due to the swirling movement. This enables the efficient removal of contamination, deposits or rust from the surfaces. The process is particularly suitable for components with complex geometries or areas that are difficult to access, as the fluidized bed moves the media in all directions, ensuring comprehensive cleaning.

In various industries, such as metal processing, the automotive industry or aviation, fluidized bed cleaning is used to clean components before further production steps, such as painting or assembly. The high efficiency and the ability to treat even hard-to-reach areas make fluidized bed cleaning an indispensable step in the production of high-quality, clean components.
