Design and experiment of fully automatic cleaning machine for inner and outer walls of plant tissue culture bottles
A fully automatic cleaning machine for inner and outer walls of plant tissue culture bottles had been developed according to re-quirements of cleaning process for plant tissue culture bottles,in response to current problems of low cleaning efficiency,high labor in-tensity,and high usage cost in production of factory grown seedlings.Key components had been designed and tested,appropriate oper-ating parameters had been determined.Experiment showed that,when spray and brush cleaning time was 4 times,cleaning time was 3 seconds,and bottle speed was 150 r/min,average cleanliness and breakage rates of cleaning machine were 93.33% and 0.83%,clean-ing efficiency was 960 bottles/h.The fully automatic cleaning machine developed could efficiently clean inner and outer walls of plant tissue culture bottles,meeting needs of factory production.
