Apparatus for the cleaning and degreasing of heavy engineering components, for example by organic solvents, is self-contained, and provides for solvent recovery and recycling. A housing (10) provides for movement of a basket, within which the component to be cleaned is located, between a position (18A) in which the basket with the component is substantially immersed in cleaning solvent, and a position (18B) in which the basket is lifted clear of the solvent for drying. The cleaning solvent is circulated in a vessel (14) and eductor nozzles (24) induce turbulence within the vessel (14) to aid cleaning. The cleaning solvent is recirculated through a filter unit (20). A series of air knives are produced at the drying location by means of slots (36) and metal plates (34), and the drying air is filtered and recirculated. The basket holding the component to be cleaned may be oscillated during both washing and drying. |
