The Aquamaster CC conveyorized chain parts washers are designed for cleaning pallets and parts being conveyed on pallets via a chain conveyor. Palletized cleaning systems are designed for shuttling parts in a manufacturing work cell. Conveyor design, pallet hand-off, cycle times, and work cell layouts are all considered when designing a conveyorized chain washer.
Pallets containing parts are shuttled to workstations for various machining operations. As parts are machined, parts and pallets can become contaminated with chips, coolant, and manufacturing soils that can be detrimental to subsequent operations. Alliance conveyorized chain cleaning systems can be integrated into the conveyor system for cleaning both empty pallets and pallets holding parts. The spray zones are designed for 360-degree spray coverage for complete cleaning and flushing of parts and pallets. Pallet stops can be incorporated in the machine to stop the pallet for cleaning or drying of specific holes in the part or special part features.
Palletized industrial parts cleaning conveyorized systems can be complicated in that smooth pallet transfer and proper line speed is critical to a successful pallet cleaning system. Our pallet conveyors are designed specifically for handshake synchronization with table top conveyor systems. This handshake interface automatically transfers the soiled pallet/part on to the Alliance conveyor system for cleaning. The conveyor in the Alliance pallet cleaning systems is designed specifically for handling wash solution. This system effectively contains the wash water, minimizing drag-out and directs the fluid for proper filtering and recirculation.

![]() | Stainless Steel Tank ConstructionThe solution tanks on the Aquamaster line of parts cleaning equipment are constructed of heavy gauge, Type 304 stainless steel for increased equipment life. Tank bottoms are sloped to allow complete drainage. |
![]() | Thermostat Controlled HeatFinding the optimal solution temperature for your parts cleaning application can improve the cleaning performance and save energy costs over the life of the machine. Alliance parts cleaning equipment includes a thermostat heat controller, which allows the operator to increase or decrease the controller setting to achieve the desired operating temperature. Heating elements will automatically cycle on/off to maintain the set temperature. |
![]() | Hinged Clean-out DoorA hinged gasketed clean-out door on the solution tank provides access to the tank inside and bottom for periodic maintenance. The doorframe is flush to the tank bottom to facilitate easy tank cleaning. The tank bottom is pitched to the drain on the opposite side (away from the clean-out door), to prevent residual water from draining out of the clean-out door. |
![]() | Clip-on Adjustable Spray NozzlesCleaning parts in a conveyorized parts washer is accomplished through spray impingement of heated cleaning solution upon the parts. Periodic cleaning and adjustment of the nozzles is important for optimum machine performance.

The "Firebar" element includes flat surface geometry which reduces scaling, coking, and degrading. A temperature controller allows the operator to set the desired operating temperature and the heating elements will automatically cycle off/on once the desired setting is reached. Gas burner and steam heating systems are available. |
![]() | Product Load SensorA product sensor Located at the load area at the end of washer senses parts as they enter the machine. When the sensing beam is broken solution pump(s) and blower(s) are turned on in sequence when a part is sensed and off if no parts are sensed for a preset time. A timer is located inside the control cabinet, and is easily adjusted for desired time duration. Conveyor belt remains running during operation. |
