With the innovative SPALECK process water treatment system, you can efficiently recirculate your compound-water mixture and save up to 97% water, while up to 95% of the compound used remains in the process. This not only conserves valuable resources, but also saves you considerable costs.
When treating process water, we differentiate between four types of treatment:
The process water is conducted from the machine into a cascade tank, inside this tank the water is calmed and the abrasive particles of parts and media are sedimented. The clear water from the last cascade is pumped back into the surface treatment machine. The sediment is removed manually.
Throughput up to 200 l/h
Centrifugation is an effective, purely mechanical separation process. The solids settle to the centrifuge wall due to the centrifugal force. The clean water is conducted into the clear water tank or back into the surface finishing machine.
Throughput 400-2,000 l/h per system
After the treatment the cleaned process water can be discharged into the sewerage system.* The sludge is dewatered via a chamber filter press and is sent for disposal.
* The disposal of processing liquids into the sewerage system is subject to approval and the legally prescribed values.
Suitable for process water with low solids proportion. It is used for very demanding processes, for example the polishing of precious metals. By evaporation of the processing liquid distillate is produced – this clear water is fully desalinated and returned to the process.
Throughput 20-2,000 l/h
Recycling centrifuge ZM4
This semi-automatic recycling centrifuge is ideal for use on small to medium-sized surface finishing systems. Its compact design combined with its wide range of applications make the ZM4 one of the most frequently used centrifuges.
Recycling centrifuge ZMT4F
Our ZMT4F is a semi-automatic recycling centrifuge with an integrated fresh water tank for buffering, which can guarantee particularly high process stability. It can be used in parallel with several surface finishing systems and can further increase its cleaning performance by flocculating the process water.
Recycling centrifuge ZA3
The fully automatic recycling centrifuge can be equipped with a wide range of modules, such as process and clean water tanks, agitators or flocculation devices. The modular system allows a process-optimized machine set-up. The ZA3 has a peeling blade that peels off the solids in the rotating centrifuge basket and automatically transports them to the mobile sludge cart.
Waste water treatment plant GAB
Our GAB enables the treatment of various process liquids in one system so that they can then be fed into the sewage system. Dissolved heavy metals, emulsified oils and suspended solids are filtered out by precipitation and flocculation.
Vacuum evaporator VD
Our evaporators are suitable for the treatment of process water with a low solids content. The process is used for very demanding processes. A distillate is produced by evaporating the process liquid – this pure water is fully demineralized and fed back into the process.

Inspection technology for maximum precision
The material handling is realized by our in-house machine construction in coordination with the requirements of the inspection technology.
Our proprietary software solution makes it possible to solve the inspection task in a customer-specific manner and includes the option of defect classification and statistical evaluation.
EMS sensors
Today, this measuring principle is used worldwide in vending machines in which coins are used for payment. Inductive testing of the coin or coin blank provides information about the material composition and/or coating of the coin/blank. The measured values of the individual object are compared with a material database and assessed as good or bad depending on the deviation from the references or the deviation defined as acceptable.
Eddy current measurement
Eddy current measurement is a non-destructive method for testing metallic surfaces. With the help of high-frequency electromagnetic interactions, different material hardnesses can be detected and analyzed both manually and automatically. This method plays a decisive role in quality assurance, as it measures the mechanical resistance of a material against the penetration of another body.
2D camera technology for edge inspection
For geometric reasons, 2D and 3D camera technology only captures the top and bottom of an object, but not the edges. A special 2D camera in combination with a ring light and a catadioptric lens is used to inspect the edge surfaces.
The following features can be checked using 2D camera technology for edge inspection:
3D camera technology
3D image capture picks up where 2D camera technology reaches its limits, particularly with regard to the depth of field of the images and the ability to recognize differences in height. To create a height profile, the component is illuminated with a line laser. The laser beam is reflected and captured by a camera. The illumination of the line laser generates many sectional images. This partial information of the component is put together by the software to form an overall object.
The following features can be checked using 3D camera technology:
2D camera technology
2D image capture is based on the principle of the human eye – light falls on an object, is reflected and captured by the eye. In our systems, artificial lighting is used to generate light beams that are reflected by the object and captured by the camera. The choice of suitable lighting and camera depends on the application.
The following features can be checked using 2D camera technology:
Decision
The components are classified based on the set inspection parameters. The data can be stored and analyzed via an SQL database or transmitted to a higher-level system.
Image analysis
The image analysis is performed by algorithms that process the data generated by the image acquisition. These algorithms are integrated into the operating software, which is used to control the system and define and save the inspection criteria.
Image acquisition
Image acquisition includes the selection of lighting and camera technology. The type and sensitivity of the components are determined according to the previously defined test characteristics and tolerances.
Handling
The variety of components and the desired degree of automation make component handling crucial. Transport and precise positioning under the inspection tool are crucial for optimum inspection results.
Inspection
The same requirements apply for an optical inspection as for the human eye. It is important to describe the component, define the characteristics to be tested and specify the tolerances.
