Clean from 0 to 100 liters per hour

A leading global manufacturer of catering coffee machines was looking for engineering services to implement an automated cleaning process in large catering coffee machines.

With many years of experience and our specialization in customer-specific special solutions, Wenzel was the right partner here.

What we have done:

With an output of 100 liters of coffee per hour, the cleaning cycle of the large coffee machine was to take place automatically after the brewing process had been completed and the ground coffee had been separated. The appropriate nozzle geometry was to be produced later using injection molding with the existing unit.

Using 3D data, Wenzel developed a pre-selection of spray and jet geometries. The sample production of a cleaning unit with interchangeable spray geometries pointed the way to the optimum cleaning result. This was followed by a test run of several thousand cleaning cycles by the manufacturer and finally approval.

Wenzel supplied the 3D data of the nozzle geometry to the manufacturer for implementation in the injection mold and series production could begin.
