Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3434381A1] The present invention refers to a spray treatment system (1) for cleaning a surface (6) of a 3D part (5). A conveyor mechanism (10) supports and moves the part (5) along a cleaning path (90) having a central axis (95). A plurality (22) of spray nozzles (20) positioned along sides (91,92) of the cleaning path spray a cleaning agent (3) in form of cleaning jets (25) towards the part (5). A 3D scanner (40,40') of the system (1) scans the part (5) to be cleaned and determines a shape and/or a size of the part (5) and generates corresponding data that is received by a processor (50) which then consequently directs a part rotating mechanism (30) to orient the part (5) based on the shape and/or the size of the part (5) such that a surface portion (4,4') of the surface (6) of the part (5) is disposed at a predetermined distance from at least one spray nozzle (20) from the plurality (22) of spray nozzles (20).
