The article will describe the working principle of the cleaning machine, its key components, and the automation control system governing the cleaning process. This technology can meet diverse cleaning requirements for reusable containers in various industrial sectors, presenting vast application prospects.

1. Introduction

With the continuous advancement of industrial production, reusable containers play a critical role as essential logistics tools across various industries. However, during the production process, these containers are susceptible to contamination and residues such as grease, dust, chemicals, etc., making regular cleaning of the containers indispensable. Traditional manual cleaning methods are both inefficient and labor-intensive. In response, we have developed an automatic cleaning machine for reusable containers, aimed at improving cleaning efficiency, saving manual labor costs, and ensuring high-quality cleaning.

2. Working Principle of the Cleaning Machine

The automatic cleaning machine for reusable containers is based on advanced principles of fluid dynamics and mechanical design. It effectively removes dirt and residues from the surfaces of containers using high-pressure water jets and appropriate cleaning agents. The working principle is as follows:

- Container Loading: Operators place the containers to be cleaned on the conveyor belt of the cleaning machine and initiate the cleaning process.

- Pre-cleaning: Initially, the container surfaces undergo a pre-cleaning phase to remove visible dirt and debris.

- High-Pressure Cleaning: Subsequently, high-pressure water jets are applied inside and outside the containers, thoroughly cleaning stubborn stains and residues.

- Cleaning Agent Spray: As needed, the system automatically sprays an appropriate amount of cleaning agent to further break down and remove hard-to-clean dirt.

- Rinsing and Drying: Finally, the container surfaces are rinsed to ensure complete removal of cleaning agents and dirt, followed by rapid drying using a drying unit.

3. Key Components

The automatic cleaning machine for reusable containers consists of the following key components:

- Conveyor System: Responsible for transporting the containers from the inlet to the outlet, facilitating the automated cleaning process.

- High-Pressure Water System: Comprising high-pressure water pumps and spray systems, this component provides the required high-pressure water for cleaning.

- Cleaning Agent Supply System: Automatically supplies an appropriate amount of cleaning agent to ensure effective cleaning.

- Automation Control System: Employing advanced PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) technology, it governs the automation control, monitoring, and fault diagnosis of the cleaning process.

- Drying Unit: Utilizing hot air or infrared technology, this unit rapidly dries the cleaned containers in preparation for their next use.

4. Automation Control System

To ensure the efficient operation of the automatic cleaning machine for reusable containers, we have implemented an advanced automation control system. Based on PLC technology, this system automates control, monitoring, and fault diagnosis during the cleaning process. Operators can set cleaning parameters and operating modes through a touchscreen interface while monitoring real-time status. The automation control system features:

- Adjustable Cleaning Parameters: Operators can set different cleaning parameters based on container size, degree of contamination, etc., to meet various cleaning requirements.

- Remote Monitoring: Supports remote monitoring and operation, facilitating real-time status updates for management and maintenance personnel.

- Safety Protection: Equipped with safety features like emergency stop and access control detection to ensure operator safety.

5. Application Areas

The automatic cleaning machine for reusable containers is widely applicable across various industrial sectors, including manufacturing, food processing, pharmaceuticals, etc. It significantly improves cleaning efficiency, reduces manual operations, lowers cleaning costs, and ensures compliance with cleanliness and hygiene standards.

6. Conclusion

The technology of an automatic cleaning machine for reusable containers provides an efficient and automated solution to address the challenges of cleaning reusable containers in industrial production. Through its logical working principle, key components, and automation control system, this technology can meet diverse cleaning requirements across different industrial sectors, resulting in considerable efficiency improvements and economic benefits for production enterprises. As industrial automation continues to advance, this technology holds promising possibilities for further refinement and wider adoption in the future.
