RobaSmart EZ eco cleaner: Sustainable cleaning technology for maximum efficiency and significant savings potential in paper production
The RobaSmart EZ eco cleaner is an innovative cleaning system for the continuous cleaning of fabrics and felts in tissue and paper machines. With over 200 installations worldwide, on machines up to 11.300 mm and speeds over 1.500 m/min, it is a well-proven technological solution. Using innovative high-pressure cleaning heads, it efficiently removes deposits and
improves the permeability of the fabrics – without any mist formation. The system was designed to fully replace all existing HP showers, mist removal boxes and any other clothing conditioning solutions and therefore saves up to 98% water and reduces energy consumption. The RobaSmart EZ eco cleaner thus sets new standards in sustainable and powerful machine
cleaning.
