System categories

TeSe AG plans and supplies industrial cleaning systems as a full-range provider, from compact ultrasonic tanks to fully integrated inline lines. The choice is driven by part, contamination, volume and cycle time rather than by a fixed product catalogue: many tasks can be solved in more than one way, and the system concept follows the process.

Batch systems: cleaning of complete batches of parts in baskets or drums; suitable for bulk goods and larger quantities cleaned in a single run.
Single-piece-flow / inline systems: cleaning of individual parts in step with the production cycle, integrable directly into the manufacturing line.
Ultrasonic tanks: immersion cleaning with ultrasound, available in various sizes and frequencies.
Wash baskets and part carriers: part-specific baskets and carriers as the interface between component and machine; they have a significant influence on the cleaning result and on handling.

For batch systems and aqueous cleaning TeSe works with Karl Roll, for inline solutions with RL Automation.

Wet-chemical cleaning: aqueous, solvent or both

For wet-chemical parts cleaning, TeSe relies on machine technology from Karl Roll, for aqueous cleaners as well as for solvents (hydrocarbons, modified alcohols).

One key to reliable results is the cyclic pressure-change process, which Roll now uses in both aqueous and solvent-based machines: rapidly alternating pressure and vacuum cycles drive the cleaning medium into and out of blind holes, capillaries and complex geometries, and then support complete drying.

Where the contamination calls for both approaches, the RCTS with TwinTec technology combines two worlds in one hybrid system: solvent and aqueous cleaning media run in the same machine, each contributing the strengths of its process chemistry. Following the principle of “like dissolves like”, solvents remove non-polar organic contamination such as oils and greases, while aqueous media take care of polar contamination, emulsions, salts and particles.

In addition to cleaning, RL Automation also provides oiling & preservation: precise, controlled oiling, for example for watch cases and stamping strips.

Consulting

TeSe advises on a technology-neutral basis: we recommend the suitable process, not our own product. At our Nürensdorf site we carry out surface analyses and trial processes on your original parts, so the system choice rests on a real cleaning result rather than a brochure. Which system category fits also depends on floor space, media and downstream production steps; we clarify these questions before sizing a system. Terms: 1–2 hours of tests free of charge. In-depth feasibility studies: CHF 1’200 per day, 50% creditable against a machine purchase.
