Automatic Feed Co. offers coil-fed lubricant brush washers that feature low-pressure spray headers and counter-rotating brushes to clean debris off stock while leaving a fresh oil film on the material.

Appropriate for steel and aluminum coil stock, these washers can handle material up to 84 in. wide and achieve a typical line speed of 300 FPM.

During operation, the coil stock is fed through the chrome-coated entry pinch rolls, where low-pressure nozzles apply oil, matched to the specification of the material being run, both before and after the brushes. The brush rolls are designed to remove any debris particles that can damage the surface during stamping. Compressed cloth squeegee rolls at the exit of the washer remove excess oil while leaving the desired amount of oil for storing or stamping of the parts.
