Foundry & Metal Recycling Power Cleaning Equipment

Maintaining Cleanly Swept Floors in Industrial Environments


Powerboss Atlas Sweeping a Foundry FloorThe dust, shavings, and small debris generated from scrap metal recycling or other foundry work inevitably accumulate on the factory floor. When all this dirt and bits of metal accumulate at such a rapid rate over such a large area, cleaning it can seem like an impossible task. But even in a work environment as tough as a foundry, keeping clean floors under control is an essential part of the operation. Not only does a cleaner work environment demonstrate the order and efficiency of the facility, it also helps to provide safer paths for foot traffic and to collect and contain dust.

Fortunately, there are industrial-grade sweeping machines that are designed specifically for this purpose. The variety of available sweeping equipment can accomodate indoor and outdoor areas, narrow and wide paths, and can run on battery, gas, or diesel. No matter the type of factory, foundry, or recycling facility, we’re here to help you find the ideal solution to your big cleaning problems.

This walk-behind floor sweeper can power through thick thick debris found in metals foundries, manufacturing plants and the dust in paper mills and, of course, those hard-to-access areas in any factory or foundry. The Model 34 is an absolute workhorse with a tried and true level of quality.

FACTORY CAT TR

Industrial Compact Rider Sweeper

The Factory Cat Model TR’s design was built from the success of the Model 34 walk-behind sweeper. The TR’s side brooms sweep up dirt in the corners while a huge tubular sweeping broom under the machine sweeps up the dirt and debris from the floor and packs it into the steel hopper. Meanwhile, the second stage vacuums up the dust and traps it in a polypropylene felt baghouse filter. Factory Cat’s floor sweepers can pick up whole bags of cement at a time without leaving a trace of dust behind.
