Cleaning Needles 

Cleaning Needles are precious tools for supporting cleaning efforts in the spinneret life cycle. Between the individual cleaning steps in a spinneret's cleaning circle, cleaning needles can be used to remove remaining tough impurities in the capillaries.

Our cleaning needles are handmade fine tools, created exactly according the capillary dimensions they are used for. This guarantees no remnants of dirt in damaging size in capillaries.

 

Screens & Gaskets

We supply a wide variety of screens & gaskets for all types of extrusion lines for monofilament, BCF, Industrial yarns, staple fiber, slit film, etc.

Blue Wave Ultrasonic Systems

The ultimate method to effectively clean your woven and non-woven tooling.
The process you use to clean your tooling is a critical factor that directly effects the efficiency of your business. Blue Wave works with textile manufacturers to achieve an effective cleaning process after a burn off.  Ultrasonically cleaning your spinnerettes, breaker plates and extrusion tooling is fast, reliable and 100% effective.  Plus, ultrasonic cleaning eliminates the danger of using and disposing of hazardous solvents or fluidized salt baths.

Blue Wave Advantages for the Textile Industry.
Knowledge – Beginning in the 1950s, we’ve made ultrasonic cleaning systems and detergents that succeed in every environment.  Our experience is the key to providing you the best cleaning solution.  We have the advantage of making the longest lasting and most effective ultrasonic tanks in the world, but our expertise and passion is delivering systems that are the best possible solution for your business.
Durability – Blue Wave ultrasonic cleaning systems are designed to perform at the highest level in the most demanding industrial cleaning environments around the world.  We know our systems are expected to operate for longer hours at higher temperatures, while cleaning to the highest standards, and we still offer the very best warranty in the ultrasonic cleaning industry (and its not even close).   How?  We utilize the highest quality materials and the most proven techniques while administering the most stringent quality testing.
Flexibility – Our ability to adapt to your specific cleaning needs is unparalleled.  If one of our standard systems won’t completely fit your needs, we work with you to engineer a custom design will be the very best option to maximize your cleaning efficiency.  From the tank size to detergent formulation to automation, the experts at Blue Wave will create a dependable cleaning solution that stays within your budget and delivers exceptional results.
Service – Our systems are designed, manufactured and tested at our company headquarters located in Davenport, Iowa USA.  The same experts who who helped design your system are the people who service your system after the sale.  We know the efficiency of your production process can depend on our ability to respond to your inquiries.  Your success is our priority.
Return on Investment – Ultrasonic cleaning in general provides a favorable return on investment when compared to your existing conventional cleaning methods.  The least expensive ultrasonic equipment will typically make more financial sense than paying for the labor needed to hand scrub your parts.  However, is is price the only thing you should consider?  Blue Wave specializes in making industrial systems that work for decades.  Long after inferior systems deteriorate, a Blue Wave system will still be going strong.   Our quality is a trustworthy investment that keeps paying off, year after year.
