Important Considerations When Rack & Weighing Equipment Washers

Choosing the right washer starts with a clear understanding of your cleaning needs and production flow. Key considerations include:

  • Size and type of racks or weigh pans being cleaned – ensuring compatibility with the washer’s dimensions and spray configurations
  • Degree of soiling – some applications require more aggressive cleaning cycles to remove fats, residues, or dry material buildup
  • Throughput requirements – whether you need batch washing or continuous processing to keep up with production
  • Cleaning cycle flexibility – multiple programs for different equipment or contamination levels
  • Material construction – stainless steel construction is ideal for durability and compliance with hygiene standards
  • Energy and water efficiency – look for washers with filtration and recirculation systems to reduce operating costs
  • Layout and space availability – ensure the equipment fits your facility and integrates easily into your workflow
  • Compliance with sanitation protocols, including FDA, USDA, and GFSI regulations

Rack & Weighing Equipment Washer Applications

Rack washers and weigh pan washers serve a variety of roles in food processing operations. Their robust cleaning power and versatility make them essential for:

  • Bakeries and confectionery plants washing mobile racks, weigh pans, and baking trays coated with sugars or oils
  • Meat and poultry processors cleaning transport racks and weigh pans used for portioning cuts
  • Prepared meal facilities washing oven racks, cooling racks, and ingredient scales to prevent cross-contamination
  • Dairy plants cleaning stainless steel pans and carts used for curd handling or ingredient prep
  • High-care zones where regular cleaning of transport and measurement tools is required to avoid allergen transfer or microbial contamination

Automating the cleaning process for these items helps facilities reduce labor time, improve hygiene consistency, and meet regulatory expectations.
