ECO-DRY mechanical cleaning of steel strips – without the use of acids

Innovative line for cleaning hot- and cold-rolled steel strips – 100% chemical-free, energy-efficient and fully automated.

ECO-DRY – a unique technology for mechanical cleaning of steel strips

ECO-DRY is an advanced line for acid-free mechanical cleaning of hot- and cold-rolled steel strips, designed for industries that want to completely eliminate hazardous chemicals while simultaneously improving surface quality.

The system uses shotblasting with high-efficiency E-ECO turbines and enables strip processing at speeds of 25–60 m/min. After treatment, the surface is uniform, smooth and resistant to corrosion.

Key advantages of the ECO-DRY line

  • 100% chemical-free cleaning
  • fully ecological solution (no wastewater and no acids)
  • significant operating cost savings (energy, service, consumables)
  • compact system → reduced space requirements
  • controlled surface roughness (adjustable Ra value)
  • improved corrosion resistance of the material
  • completely uniform appearance along the entire strip length

Technological advantages of the E-ECO and CPMT system

  • E-ECO turbines have up to 10× longer service life compared to conventional turbines
  • high abrasive velocity → exceptional cleaning performance
  • CPMT (Complete Process Monitoring Technology) enables 100% remote process control
  • optimal monitoring of parameters: roughness, speed, abrasive flow, wear
  • stable, repeatable results at high line speeds

ECO-DRY is a fully automated line, designed for continuous industrial operation with minimal downtime.

 

Why choose ECO-DRY mechanical cleaning?

  1. No chemicals – no hazardous waste

Eliminate acids, tanks, neutralization processes and expensive waste handling procedures.

  1. Lower operating costs

No chemical costs, reduced maintenance, less required space and no need for specially protected zones.

  1. Highest surface quality

The processed strip has a smooth, homogeneous and visually uniform surface, ready for further processing or coating.

  1. Stable, repeatable and automated process

The CPMT system ensures complete control and real-time diagnostics of the process.
