Smokehouse Rack Cart Washer Series

SCW-580 | 360° Continuous Rotation + 3D Spray Dual System | Steam Heating & Intelligent Temperature Control | Full SUS304 Construction

  Product Introduction

In meat and poultry processing plants, smokehouse rack carts move through cooking, smoking, cooling and freezing cycles every day, accumulating fat, protein residue and smoke deposits that manual cleaning can hardly remove. A dedicated rack cart washer has therefore become standard hygiene equipment for plants running under HACCP and GMP programs, ensuring that every cart returning to the production line is clean, sanitized and ready for the next batch.

The Henger Global SCW-580 smokehouse rack cart washer is built around a 360° continuous rotation frame combined with a 3D spray dual system, so every surface of the cart — corners, wheel sets and shelf gaps included — is reached by high-pressure jets from multiple dimensions without dead zones.

With a 22 kW main wash pump, steam heating with intelligent temperature control, and a four-step process of circulation water washing, foaming, circulation water washing and clean water rinsing, the machine handles 20-30 carts per hour for cart sizes up to 1000×1000×2000 mm, giving processing plants a stable, repeatable cleaning result shift after shift.

  Core Advantages

· 360° Continuous Rotation: A 1.5 kW variable-frequency gear motor drives the rotating frame, turning the cart smoothly through every spray zone so that all sides, shelves and undersides are cleaned evenly in one cycle.

· 3D Multi-Dimensional Spray System: Strategically arranged nozzles deliver multi-angle, multi-dimensional coverage inside the wash chamber, eliminating blind spots that fixed spray systems often leave on complex cart structures.

· High-Pressure Main Wash: A 22 kW pump with a dedicated piping system provides the main wash, delivering the flow and pressure needed to strip heavy fat, protein and smoke residue from cart surfaces.

· Steam Heating & Intelligent Temperature Control: Steam heating piping in the circulation tank, managed by an intelligent temperature control system, maintains high-temperature wash water for effective sanitation and stubborn soil removal.

· Water Recirculation & Filtration: A 3.0 kW circulation pump with filtration equipment reuses wash water in the circulation tank, reducing water and energy consumption while a separate clean water tank guarantees a fresh final rinse.

· Automatic Chemical Dosing: A dedicated dosing pump feeds cleaning agent into the wash circuit at a controlled rate, supporting a consistent foaming step and repeatable cleaning results across batches.

· Full SUS304 Construction: The machine body is made of SUS304 stainless steel, corrosion-resistant, easy to clean and suitable for the wet, high-humidity environment of food processing wash areas.

· Exhaust & Heat Dissipation: An exhaust fan plus a cooling fan remove steam and dissipate heat from inside the machine, protecting internal components and improving the working environment around the equipment.

Technical Specifications

  Working Principle

1. Cart Loading: The smokehouse rack cart is pushed into the wash chamber and secured on the rotating frame.

2. Circulation Water Wash: Filtered recirculated water, heated by the steam heating system to the set temperature, is sprayed at high pressure by the 22 kW main wash pump to remove loose soil and heavy residue.

3. Foaming: The dosing pump injects cleaning agent into the circuit, applying foam evenly over the rotating cart to break down fat and protein deposits.

4. Rotation Cleaning: The 1.5 kW variable-frequency gear motor rotates the frame continuously through 360°, exposing every surface of the cart to the 3D spray system.

5. Second Circulation Wash: Circulation water washing is repeated to flush away foam and loosened contaminants from all angles.

6. Clean Water Rinse: Fresh water from the clean water tank performs the final rinse, leaving the cart free of chemical and soil residue.

7. Steam Exhaust & Heat Dissipation: The exhaust fan and cooling fan remove steam and heat from the chamber, allowing safe door opening and cart unloading.

8. Cart Unloading: The cleaned cart is removed, ready to return to the production line, and the machine is ready for the next cycle.

 Application Scenarios & Industry Cases

The SCW-580 rack cart washer is designed for plants where rack carts are the backbone of thermal processing logistics. Typical applications include smoked and cooked meat plants cleaning smokehouse racks after each smoking or cooking cycle; sausage, ham and bacon production lines where carts carry product through cooking and cooling; poultry processing plants handling evisceration and portioning carts; and central kitchens or ready-meal factories where rack carts move through combi ovens and blast chillers.

By standardizing cart hygiene with a mechanical, high-temperature wash process, plants reduce manual labor, stabilize sanitation results and support HACCP/GMP audit requirements. Layout, cart dimensions and cycle time can be discussed with our engineering team to match your line configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Below are the questions we hear most often from processing plants evaluating a rack cart washer. For anything not covered here, our engineering team is ready to help.

Q: What cart sizes can the SCW-580 rack cart washer handle?

A: The standard chamber is designed for rack carts up to 1000 × 1000 × 2000 mm, with a capacity of 20-30 carts per hour. If your carts differ in size or design, our engineering team can review the drawings and adjust the chamber and rotating frame accordingly.

Q: Can the power supply be adapted to my local voltage?

A: Yes. The standard configuration is 3-phase 380V 50Hz, and the electrical system can be customized to match your local power supply on request.

Q: How does the machine save water during operation?

A: Wash water is collected in the circulation tank, filtered and reused for the main wash steps by the 3.0 kW circulation pump. Only the final rinse uses fresh water from the clean water tank, which significantly reduces overall water and heating energy consumption.

Q: Is steam supply required for this machine?

A: The circulation tank is equipped with steam heating piping, so a plant steam connection is recommended for the high-temperature wash. If steam is not available on site, please consult our sales team for alternative heating options.

Q: What cleaning agents can be used, and how are they dosed?

A: The machine is equipped with a dedicated dosing pump that injects cleaning agent into the wash circuit at a controlled rate during the foaming step. The agent type and concentration should be selected according to your soil conditions and chemical supplier's guidance.

Q: What maintenance does the machine require?

A: Routine maintenance includes cleaning the filtration equipment in the circulation tank, checking nozzles for blockage, and inspecting pumps and fans on a regular schedule. The SUS304 body and open structure make daily wash-down straightforward.

Q: Can the machine be integrated into an existing wash area layout?

A: Yes. Dimensions, door direction and utility connections can be planned together with your layout. Contact our team with your wash area drawing and we will propose an installation plan.
