Our low-pressure hot-water cleaning units are used in the most varied industries. Read what our customers say about them here — in their own words.
Franz H. Bruder GmbH
Oppenau
Our company, Franz H. Bruder GmbH, based in Oppenau, is a manufacturer of precision parts. Two years ago, on the recommendation of Mr Willi Schüler, we purchased a hot-water cleaning unit from ph-cleantec, with which we have since cleaned our turning, grinding and milling machines. For us this is an enormous improvement, because the deposits simply come off, and we save an enormous amount of time — I would almost say: cleaning is fun this way! We also use the unit for parts cleaning; there too we save a massive amount of working time, and we save the money for the brake cleaner that we used before. In particular, we also use the unit for the thermal disinfection of our cooling lubricant, which we can thus leave in the machine for longer. This has allowed us to get the fungi that previously caused us problems completely under control. We can therefore only warmly recommend the ph-cleantec units — it really is a fine thing!

Bharat Forge Daun
Forming tools and forged parts
At Bharat Forge Daun we produce forming tools for the European forging sites of the Bharat Forge Group. In addition, we machine forgings in series according to customer drawings, right through to the ready-to-install product. In doing so we naturally pay attention to the highest quality. For us, that also includes professionally maintained and serviced machine tools. For cleaning our machines we use the ph-cleantec units — they are simply great, and with them we can even clean stubborn contamination off the machines. Since we have been using the Thermo-EK, we have been able to significantly extend the service life. Through the continuous care of the cooling lubricant, additives can be dispensed with in the long term. For us it is clear: instead of correction chemicals we will use thermal disinfection in future. We can therefore recommend the ph-cleantec units with a clear conscience and most warmly.
JB Maschinenbau und Montageservice
We specialise in the servicing and repair of machine tools. This also includes thorough cleaning. By using the ph-cleantec units we have a large time saving and can offer our customers a better service. Customer service, staff and deliveries: all tip-top.
ABB Schweiz AG
At our premises the ph-cleantec cleaning unit is used mainly for machine cleaning. The cleaning times have been significantly reduced, the cleaning performance is impressive. Thanks to the low pressure, the unit can also be used on electrical components. We often ask ourselves: how did we ever do it before?
AGCO GmbH Fendt
Since 2007 we have used a total of 3 cleaning units of the 1000 SR type. One main area of use: the uncomplicated and efficient cleaning of production systems carrying cooling-lubricant emulsion. The travel times to wash bays that were previously necessary are largely eliminated — this benefits system availability.
Edelstahl Rosswag Pfinztal
Since mid-February 2018 we have been using a 1000 SR with thermal disinfection. Especially during persistent hot temperatures, we have been able to significantly reduce the use of biocides, or dispense with them entirely — thermal disinfection significantly reduces bacteria and fungi.
Piepenbrock Dienstleistungen
Low-pressure hot-water cleaning can be used during ongoing operation. It is gentle on the processed materials and uses less water and cleaning chemicals than comparable methods. Large machine tools and conveyor belts can be cleaned with it just as well as small-part filter systems.
CNC MultiService
Whereas we previously needed 2 to 8 working days to clean a machine tool, today 0.5 to 2 days are enough, with a considerably better result at the same time. The health hazard was reduced by 99 % compared with conventional cleaners.
Huttelmaier Schorndorf
We overhaul and modernise machine tools. With the ph-cleantec technology we are considerably faster than with the manual method and have been able to significantly reduce the costs for chemicals and disposal. Acceptance among the employees is very high.
IWS Sachs
We service and repair CNC machine tools at the customer’s premises. Through the gentle process we ensure that nothing in the machine is damaged, and with the long lance we reach everywhere. In short: simple and brilliant.
Grün Mechanik
We have been using low-pressure hot-water cleaning technology since 2007. The unit is used daily for the most varied tasks — both in maintenance and for production parts. The unit is used gladly and intensively by my employees.
KFZ Trusheim
In 1992 we bought a cleaning unit from ph-cleantec (formerly Schickert) and still use this technology daily for the most varied cleaning tasks in the workshop. This was one of my best investments of the last 20 years.
Autohaus Stahl GmbH
We have been using ph-cleantec (formerly Schickert) low-pressure hot-water cleaning technology in our car workshop for many years for the most varied cleaning tasks and are still fully convinced by the technology.
Haf Präzisionstechnik
Since May 2008 the unit has been used for almost all cleaning work — from machine tools with emulsion to conveyor technology. The results achieved are convincing with every application anew.
Schwarz Elektromotoren
Since autumn 2009 a 1000 SR has been used to degrease our engine assemblies before painting and to clean our machine tools. The results confirm to us again and again that we are on the right track with this technology.
Jesinghaus & Co. Maschinenbau
In use for half a year — the cleaning result is considerably better than with cold cleaner. Cleaning is no longer a punishment; with the 1000 SR everyone does it gladly. The low water consumption is a pleasant surprise.
LTA Lufttechnik
We preferably use units of the 1000 SR type for cleaning the filter elements and complete filter systems. Thanks to the low pressure and the high temperature we can work effectively and free of damage.
Cleanteam GmbH Laupheim
Three units in use for cleaning machine tools carrying cooling lubricant as part of our industrial services. Besides the time advantages, the technology enables preventive maintenance cleaning in short time windows.
Rege Motorenteile
Our service provider used to clean the machine tools with the high-pressure cleaner — the consequence was frequent failure of the systems. Since the switch to ph-cleantec, such incidents no longer occur.
SMZ Spindelservice
For over a year two 1000 SR units in use. We clean very heavily soiled, oily and partly calcified spindle parts. We are exceptionally satisfied with the results — most warmly to be recommended.
Eichten Werkzeugmaschinen
Besides the benefits in terms of handling, cleanliness and time expenditure, it was also important to us that the risk of injury during machine cleaning was drastically reduced. Anyone who regularly cleans a machine knows what accidents can happen.
Pfeifer Seil- und Hebetechnik
A 1000 SR for cleaning our machine tools and their peripherals as part of plant maintenance. Compared with manual cleaning, we have thus found a fast, efficient and motivating cleaning technology.
RiWoTech
Two 1000 SRE units for cleaning as part of our service assignments on CNC systems. The uncomplicated application and the mobility clearly speak for this technology.
Blum-Novotest
A 1000 SR both for production-accompanying parts cleaning and for machine cleaning of our machine tools carrying cooling lubricant. The level of cleanliness achieved convinces us again and again.
Homag Holzbearbeitungsmaschinen
With the introduction of the ph-cleantec technology, a noticeable change took place in the motivation of our employees to clean their own production systems. With significantly increased system availability at the same time, our employees clean of their own accord.

MS-Industries Süßen
Whereas we previously needed 5 to 10 working days manually to clean a machine tool, today 1 to 2 days are enough. The high mobility allows us to take the unit along to assignments at our clients too.
Sika Sarnafil
The majority of our employees use the ph-cleantec unit, because with it they can clean without odour and health burden and much faster. Also used for machine cleaning — with convincing success.
Pallmann Maschinenfabrik
We were able to reduce our solvent consumption — which was immense in the past — practically to zero. Our entire product range is now degreased before painting only with this technology. Two units in use, we are very satisfied.
Autohaus Kloz
We use the technology at four lifting platforms for brake and wheel work. With a single unit we were able to reduce the consumption of brake-cleaner sprays by over 80 % — and at the same time achieve better results with more occupational safety.
Hechinger Electronic
A 1000 SR for cleaning our filter units soiled with rosin from automatic soldering stations. Through the high temperature and an alkaline cleaner we achieve very good cleaning results.
Bristol T&G International
For cleaning filter elements (including electrostatic filters), after an in-house demonstration and trial, we get on very well with a unit from the company ph-cleantec.
