Binwasher
The Bin Washer BW-2 is a eurobin washer for the food industry: it washes 200-litre bins and 1,000-litre containers to food industry hygiene requirements. The machine has two separate tanks, a prewash tank and a wash water tank. The prewash rinses coarse soil off with cold water into its own tank, and the actual wash runs on separate wash water at 55–65 °C. With two tanks the wash water stays clean through the whole shift: the result is consistent, water consumption is 20 litres per cycle and capacity is 20–50 cycles per hour. The bin washing machine is designed and built in Säkylä, Finland, and can be integrated into an existing production line.

Crate and Tray Dryer – Two Row
The two-row dryer is the last stage of a two-row crate washing line: it dries two rows of crates side by side and offers double the capacity of the single-row dryer. The drying air is not separately heated: it warms up from the energy released at the blowing nozzles, and the air is partially recirculated while fresh air is drawn in through the intake. An optional duct heater heats the drying air when more drying performance is required. The dryer suits high-throughput installations at the end of the washing line, where the bottleneck risk is greatest. Models are optimised for beverage trays, 600×400×180 mm and 600×400×220 mm crates, and moulds up to 1,500 mm wide. The other stages of the line are presented on the Crate Washers and Washing Lines page.
