CER Cleaning Equipment in Romania, a company of the German Kärcher Group, has been using machines, automation and auxiliaries from the Wittmann Group for years. Recently, another 18 machines of the MacroPower series were installed at CER Cleaning Equipment.

Since this beginning, the Wittmann Group has been supplying CER Cleaning Equipment with machines from the EcoPower and MacroPower series, robots and auxiliary equipment. The first 16 MacroPower machines in the clamping force range of 4,000 kN up to 11,000 kN were delivered in 2016. Due to the continuing growth of CER and the high demand for vacuum cleaners, the delivery of a second batch of machines took place in 2018. As growth continued without interruption, another factory building next to the original building had to be constructed starting middle of 2020 with more machines, robots and a central material handling system following as well. At the end of 2020 and the beginning of 2021, Wittmann Battenfeld installed another batch of 18 machines from the MacroPower series in the clamping force range from 4,500 to 9,000 kN in the new facility of CER. The machine park of CER Cleaning Equipment currently comprises 44 machines of the MacroPower series and one EcoPower machine. Amongst them are machines in XL configuration with extended platen size and four 2-component machines. For the implementation of lightweight constructions, three machines are equipped with Wittmann Battenfeld Airmould gas modules, which are connected to a centralized pressure generator.

The machines of the MacroPower series convince at CER Cleaning Equipment above all through their compact design, their speed, their cleanliness and their high energy efficiency, which is achieved through the use of the most modern servo motors and pump technology. The machines are equipped with the latest Wittmann robots from the pro series. The main focus is on the W832 pro, which is characterized by its stable structure, flexibility and high accuracy. Both CER Cleaning Equipment facilities are equipped with a central drying and conveying system from Wittmann. Coded coupling stations for the drying silos as well as for the feeding to the machines are in place. The centralized system was completed with gravimetric external silos. CER puts high attention to the avoidance of any kind of plastic waste, such as runners or reject parts. In case this cannot be completely avoided, the recovery of plastics is performed strictly by type with a high quality level, and the material is fed back to the production.
