MecWash named UK agent for Sugino Machines

MecWash Systems is now the sole UK agent of Sugino Corporation’s high-pressure cleaning and deburring machines, including the JCC (Jet Clean Centre) range. This strategic partnership strengthens MecWash’s position as a major UK supplier of aqueous parts cleaning systems for precision industries.

Sugino, a global specialist in high-pressure cleaning and deburring technology, has developed the JCC series to deliver accurate results, short cycle times and operational flexibility. The Sugino systems are designed like machine tools with an XYZ column and rotating plinth, to give strength, accuracy and control of the waterjets. The systems are also programmed like CNC machine tools, so they can be used easily by machine tool trained staff.

Delivering high pressures at up to 2450 bar, the machines provide high performance for particularly tenacious contamination and burrs. This power can be particularly valuable in cleaning up die castings, removing casting media or oxidation scale from hardening, leaving an excellent surface finish, reports MecWash.

Pierre Le Noach, sales manager at Sugino Machine France, says: “This is a great opportunity for Sugino and MecWash to combine forces to tackle industry’s toughest cleaning challenges. The partnership gives Sugino access to the UK market, where high-pressure deburring and washing systems are in great demand. MecWash has an exceptional reputation and will help to drive Sugino’s presence within UK manufacturing.” 

Adds John Pattison, managing director of MecWash Systems: “This partnership is a perfect synergy of precision engineering and technical expertise. The Sugino JCC machines complement and extend our existing range by providing capability for applications where accurate ‘brute force’ is critical for cleaning or deburring.”
