NEW ALPHA Rack Washer: see it in action!

We are glad to share with you the new ALPHA video, showcasing Tecniplast-IWT's top-of-the-range Rack Washer in action.

Discover why ALPHA is the new benchmark in the industry, boosting throughput while enhancing sustainability. Watch ALPHA in action, washing up to 154 mouse cages per cycle, pushing the cost-per-cage boundary to an all-time low. Test its flexibility, maintaining top-level performance. Find out more about ACT – Adaptive Cleaning patented technology, featuring revolutionary arm designs that combine oscillation and vertical translation for improved coverage and mechanical water impact... and much more!

We are IWT has been the leader in the cage washing procedures for decades, with cage and rack washers standing out as the core product of entire portfolio. Atlantis generation of rack washers, in particular, thanks to its unique set of options, has set the industry benchmark. Indeed, IWT’s ongoing mission has always been to minimize the machine footprint, reduce energy and utility consumption, while simultaneously enhancing the effectiveness of the washing process and the overall throughput.

In this scenario, the development of the RW-Alpha, the newborn in the IWT cage and rack washer family, took us a significant step forward, aiming to combine high operational efficiency with unparalleled throughput as well as excellent sustainability. 

Find here below just a taste of the most relevant innovations.

  • VHD Presentation Racks:
    • New High Density presentation racks allowing up to 75% extra loading capacity in a 30% lighter design (included cages on top)
    • Available in both Flexy and Plus configurations to allow various items to be loaded on and thus matching different facilities’ needs
  • Adaptive Cleaning Technology (ACT) system:
    • Innovative cleaning arms design combining independent vertical translations and oscillating movements to improve water coverage and mechanical impact on surfaces to be washed
    • Full control on the arms positioning and trajectories allowing precise washing and rinsing of bottles as well as partially loaded presentation racks
  • Enhanced Cleaning Performance:
    • Direct and uniform spraying pattern on every surface of the load ensuring top-notch cleaning capabilities
    • Increased mechanical wash force (+39% TTI) thanks to optimised fluid-dynamic (i.e., water flow rate and pressure)
  • Sustainability is the key:
    • Huge savings in utilities consumptions (up to -75% reduction): only 330 ml – 10 oz of water used per cage
    • Minimised CO2e emissions thanks to smaller water tanks design, enhanced performance and reduced utilities usage
  • Compact Design:
    • Only 100 mm – 4 inches depth and 1950 mm – 77 inches width pit dimensions being the smallest and shallowest in the market
    • 11% narrower chamber width to minimise load-nozzles distance to improve water mechanical action and providing more space for the side technical area

RW-Alpha is not just a new product: it is testimonial of IWT commitment to innovation, efficiency, flexibility and sustainability. Enjoy the video and reach out to us for more information at info@iwtsrl.it.
