Put the parts in the basket, choose a programme and let the machine do the work. A Rotor washer heats water-based detergent to the right temperature and sprays it over the parts while the basket turns, removing oil, grease, dirt and other contaminants evenly on every side.
Whether you search for a parts washer, a parts cleaner, a degreasing machine or an ultrasonic cleaner, the job is the same: get oil, grease, carbon and dirt off metal parts quickly and consistently. Pick the guide that fits your work.
Load the rotating basket, close the hinged lid and start the programme. Two spray lines wash every side of the parts as the basket turns. Sized for small and medium-sized parts, with basket loads from 150 kg (Rotor 800) to 400 kg (Rotor 1200).

Ultrasonic cleaning in a heated tank, with a pneumatic platform that lowers the parts in, agitates them and lifts them out. Recirculating filtration and oil decanting keep the bath working for longer.
A Rotor sprays heated water at the parts as the basket turns. A Sonic machine immerses the parts in a heated bath of water and detergent, and ultrasound does the work: tiny bubbles form and collapse against every wetted surface (cavitation), a micro-scrub that lifts grease, oil, carbon and dirt from ducts, cavities and corners a brush, air gun or spray cannot reach.

A parts washer is a machine that cleans oil, grease and dirt off mechanical parts, so they can be inspected, repaired or reassembled. Manual parts washers are sinks or tubs with a brush and a pump. An automatic parts washer, like the IronWash Rotor, closes the parts in a cabinet and sprays them with heated, water-based detergent while the basket turns, with nobody having to stand at the sink.
Request a quote with the form or email us. Tell us what you clean, the size and weight of your largest part and where the machine is going, and we will send an itemised quote for the machine, with delivery to your site quoted separately.
Rotor: automatic rotating-basket spray washing for small to medium-sized metal parts, tools and components in batches. Sonic: ultrasonic cleaning in a heated bath for parts with ducts, cavities, threads and complex shapes. Many workshops use both: the Rotor for the heavy degreasing, the Sonic for the detail work.
Rotor baskets range from Ø740 × 450 mm and 150 kg (Rotor 800) to Ø1140 × 600 mm and 400 kg (Rotor 1200). Sonic platforms take 70 kg (Sonic 160X), 100 kg (Sonic 160) or 220 kg (Sonic 310), with a useful basket of up to 930 × 560 × 390 mm. Rotor 1400 specifications are on request.
No. The Rotor uses water-based detergents in low concentrations, heated by the machine (thermostat 0–60 °C). The Sonic uses a heated bath of water and detergent (Sonic 160X thermostat 0–80 °C), with the detergent matched to the material being cleaned.
Rotor machines need a 400 V three-phase supply with neutral and earth (other voltages on request), and 6–8 bar compressed air. The Sonic 160X needs 400 V three-phase; supply details for the Sonic 160 and 310 are confirmed on your quote.
Yes, enquiries from across Africa are welcome. We are based in Bloemfontein, Free State, and handle enquiries by email. Choose "Outside South Africa" on the form and tell us the destination: delivery is quoted for each site.

Pump the spent solution into an IBC and have it collected by a licensed waste contractor. The oil separator (Rotor) or oil decanting (Sonic) and the filtration extend the time between changes.
