This Klotzki Spiral 2000X2000 is a beverage machine — specifically a spiral crate washer designed for cleaning open plastic beverage crates. This type of equipment, sometimes referred to as a crate cleaning machine, is used in bottling and beverage production facilities to wash large volumes of returnable crates continuously before they re-enter the filling line.
The machine handles crates in cross-flow conveying direction, with crate dimensions of 400 mm × 300 mm in longitudinal flow and 200 mm × 300 mm in cross flow, and accommodates crate heights ranging from 270 mm to 300 mm. The crate infeed height is 1,100 mm and the outfeed height is 4,100 mm, reflecting the spiral elevation design that allows the machine to treat crates over a vertical rise within a compact footprint. The treatment section spans approximately 34 metres, divided across 48 individual treatment units, giving crates thorough washing coverage throughout their passage.
Throughput capacity is rated at 1,500 to 2,000 crates per hour. Treatment time varies with throughput: at 1,700 crates per hour the treatment time is approximately 91 seconds, and at 2,400 crates per hour it reduces to approximately 65 seconds. The entire machine is constructed in stainless steel, appropriate for the wet, chemical, and hygiene demands of beverage crate washing environments. The control system is a Siemens Logo unit. Overall machine dimensions are approximately 3,000 mm × 2,000 mm × 5,000 mm (X/Y/Z), and the machine weighs approximately 1,500 kg.
This is a used machine, manufactured in 2011 and currently located in Germany. It is offered without a platform. The seller notes that the crate indexing and spraying units may require repair. Documentation is available, and an on-site inspection visit can be arranged.
