Power Cleaner on Spunbond & Meltblown Reicofil line
Spunindo has a total of 12 manufacturing lines, that have a width of 3.2 - 4.6 meters and operate at a speed of up to 1,000m/min. ProJet’s Power Cleaner assures non-stop production without the need for stopping the line for belt changes or manual cleaning of the belt. As always, the newest system is equipped with a Water Heater that heats up the pressurized water to 100oC, so the cleaning is done with high pressure steam.
The lines use a spunmelt extrusion processes. Both Spunbond and Meltblown are known to create contamination issues on the conveyor belt (also known as spinbelt), each process having its specific characteristics and belt contamination issues. Belt contamination reduces runnability of the production line and therefore output of face-mask material of the whole plant. ProJet’s Power Cleaner runs 24 hours per day, using high pressure water that is heated to 100 degrees Celsius (steam), vacuum systems, compressed air and rotating brushes to keep the spinbelt clean. A clean spinbelt guarantees high quality sheet and longest lifetime of the belt.
