TurboWash, a truck underbody and wheel washing system, has recently
been launched by Wimborne-based Morris Swain Engineering.
At the heart of the system, aimed at the quarrying sector, is a rotating jet head containing multiple heads. In operation, a truck or off-road machine approaching the TurboWash ramp breaks an infra-red detector beam which delays the washing sequence until the vehicle is positioned on the 6m-long ramp.
Actual washing time is 10 seconds and can be set either on timer or with the beam being re-made, followed by a set delay. This delay allows for rear wheel washing of 12m-long articulated vehicles.
A prototype TurboWash installed at Tilcon's Church Farm quarry near Worcester has been running for nine months.
