Hydraulic System Products (HSP) contacted MecWash to upgrade its component cleaning to meet increasing demand and the strict cleanliness requirements of clients. With high standards required from customers in the OEM construction industry, the quality of the wash and dry process was essential to the success of the business.

Alan Atkinson, sales manager at MecWash, says: “We carried out extensive research at HSP to understand the application and the contaminants involved in their hydraulic products. Delivering precision engineered parts manufactured to the highest specifications requires rigorous cleaning of the components.”

The MecWash MWX300 was selected as the most effective machine for HSP’s application, with full ultrasonic cleaning functionality. Ultrasonic wash and rinse capabilities transmit high-frequency sound waves through the wash solution, which destabilises the contamination and facilitates fast and economical cleaning with high process quality.

“The processes that follow include a flood and spray rinse, hot air dry, vacuum dry and ambient air cooling, providing an extremely thorough cleaning and drying process, and a fantastic finish,” says Atkinson.

Stephen Westwood, general manager at HSP, adds: “We considered several manufacturers, but through trials and proving out of the MecWash MWX300’s capabilities, we were impressed with the machine’s excellent cleaning results. This improvement has enabled us to meet or exceed our OEM client’s stringent cleanliness standards. We are delighted with our new machine and value its ability to clean and achieve our customers stringent cleanliness standards.”
