PowerSpray^® identifies cleaning systems which work with the intelligent pressure-spray-in-air technology developed by kolb or detergents which are suitable for this technology.

AirFlow^® identifies systems which work with the turbulence air in immersion cleaning process developed by kolb or detergents which are suitable for this technology.

UltraSonic identifies kolb cleaning systems with ultrasonic technology or kolb detergents and detergent additives which are suitable for ultrasonic cleaning systems.

FlipsideClean identifies detergents and detergent additives which are suitable and certified for stencil underside cleaning in screen printers.

ManualApp identifies products which are suitable and intended for manual application.

PolyPower^® identifies kolb PowerSpray^® systems equipped with an advanced pump-nozzles configuration, leading to up to 30% less cleaning time.

PulseFlow^® technology identifies the pulsing cleaning process developed by kolb to clean and rinse shadowed components, hard-to-reach spots and low standoffs and also optimize rinsing and minimize foaming.

VMH^®Drying identifies kolb systems with a patented venturi principle based hot air power drying technology which is extremely effective and distinctively economic.

CWA^®Drying identifies kolb cleaning systems with the patented and energetically as constructively highly efficient combined drying process of compressed air (blowing off the residual moisture) and warm air (evaporative drying).

HotSpeed identifies kolb systems with hot air drying modules integrated in the process chamber lid, which quickly and completely evaporate the residual moisture from the items to be cleaned. 

ClosedLoop identifies kolb cleaning systems with an internal circuit for the reprocessing of cleaning fluid and rinse water.

Multi-stage rinsing process technology developed by kolb for batch systems, enabling up to 90 % reduction in rinsing water consumption.

CrossLoop identifies kolb water treatment systems that reprocess the rinse water of batch systems (with or without internal reprocessing circuit) for fresh re-use.

kolb's patented process for rinse water treatment and indirect discharge into the public wastewater system.

Traceability identifies machines which can be equipped with a traceability system allowing continuous and complete tracking and identification of the products to be cleaned.

DNAccess^® identifies all kolb cleaning systems offering intelligent network connectivity for implementation in industry 4.0 smart factories (remote control, remote monitoring, mailing, remote maintenance assistance etc.)

QuickChange identifies kolb systems which are compatible to a kolb QuickChange unit which allows to completely exchange fully loaded cleaning baskets reducing the downtime of a machine to only 1 - 2 minutes. 

HighLoad-labeled detergents have an exceptionally high load capacity and can reliably dissolve and bind large amounts of contaminants. This results in long service life and low operating costs, as the cleaner rarely needs to be replaced.

RinseSuitable-labeled detergents have excellent drying properties and are therefore also suitable as a rinsing medium. This enables rinse-water-free processes and cost-efficient system operation.

TernarySeq^®-labeled cleaners remove contaminants through a three-stage process, creating a homogeneous mixture. This enables long service life and cost-efficient operation, as impurities can be easily filtered out of the cleaning cycle.

SinglePhase identifies homogeneous (single-phase) detergents that do not need to be mixed before use and work immediately with full cleaning effect, thus reducing process times and enabling cost-saving systems technology.

WaterFree identifies anhydrous kolb detergents as well kolb cleaning systems which operate in a closed cycle without water (connection), only with a communicating cleaning / rinsing detergent.

LowConduct identifies detergents that contain very little conductive material, preventing cleaner-related conductivity (ionic contamination) from being transferred into rinsing processes. These cleaners thus significantly save water and energy.

LowTemp identifies detergents reaching their full efficiency range already at 20-45 °C and thus the viscosity to clean low standoffs, making the process more stable, extend the cleaners service life, save energy and protect machines and materials.

ESDSafe identifies products which have due to their special material or ingredient composition no influence on the electrical resistance and cause no significant static charge.
