8RB50 Custom Parts Washer
A Machine That Exceeds Cleaning Specifications
The 8RB50 custom parts washer allows you to clean dirty parts more thoroughly with the least amount of time and labor invested. Arnold Machine builds our parts washers with high-quality components to ensure a long lifespan while standing up to the harshest operating conditions.
This parts washing machine is ideal for washing extremely small parts or parts that can be fit into a basket that is roughly 15” long, 9” wide, and 4” tall. The inside of the baskets can be partitioned to hold a wide range of parts - to prevent movement or parts knocking against each other.Typical applications can include fastener manufacturing, automotive components, or anything that can fit inside the basket.
We fabricate our parts washers in our 75,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Tiffin, Ohio. Our expert engineers, programmers, electricians, and machine tradesmen will custom-design and build an 8RB50 to solve your toughest parts washing challenges.

Case Study: A Faster and More Thorough Clean
A leading heavy-duty construction equipment manufacturer was experiencing an increased rate of parts failures in the field.
Challenge
After troubleshooting the problem, the manufacturer determined their components were not getting cleaned as thoroughly as they should have been when going through their existing cleaning equipment. The company approached Arnold Machine and asked us to improve their corporate parts cleaning.
Solution
Our team of engineers and technicians met with the company’s team of experts and designed a machine that could meet or exceed their cleaning specifications.
To reinforce cleanliness specifications, the engineers incorporated Ultrasonic cleaning into the wash and rinse stage. The ultrasonic transducers emit micron-sized bubbles, which travel into holes and internal passageways on the parts and explode on the contamination, breaking them free and allowing the water to wash them away.
By adding these elements and partnering with the company’s team, we designed and built a system we were confident could routinely meet their cleanliness specification. After test runs and client approval, we installed the machine on their manufacturing floor. Once fully installed, their components were cleaned more thoroughly than ever before—exceeding their original standard!
Data
The client was able to Millipore test their parts and hold a tighter clean spec which became their new standard. It exceeded their toughest clean spec with a maximum particle size of 75 x 75 x 750 microns.
Results
They now own over 30 similar machines for their critical clean applications across multiple manufacturing locations.
