Benefits
A Variety of Arrangements
Each Milnor CBW washer is custom-made for the customer’s specific needs. More modules give greater production. Water inlets and drain valves give greater flexibility. Mentor control allows pre-determined temperature and chemical levels for each individual bath.
Mentor Control
The operator puts a batch in line for loading, then enters the goods classification number into the Mentor® Control. This automatically selects the processing formula which follows the batch until it’s automatically unloaded from the dryer and delivered to its finishing destination.
Fast Loading
A conveyor or overhead bag system may feed the load chute.
Efficient Washing
Each module has a stationary shell to hold the wash bath and a rotating, perforated inner cylinder. Each module can be used for different baths. Goods proceed through the formula by traveling from module to module, via a perforated top transfer scoop. There are no stops and starts for draining and filling after each bath. This saves time, compared to conventional washing machinery.
Temperature Controls
Any module can be equipped with a steam inlet and temperature probe.
Supplies
Supply inlets can be placed in each module. The Mentor control dictates the amount of supplies and when, or if, they are added to the specific goods in each module during the wash cycle.
Post-Wash
The MultiTrac system relays each batch’s post-wash requirements to other parts of the system; extractor, shuttle, dryers and conveyors. A CRT display identifies batch location and status. Where multiple batch dryers are used, the control system prevents mixing of incompatible batches in the same dryer.
Top Transfer Increases Productivity
Milnor top transfer CBW washers have proven higher productivity in more than 1,000 installations worldwide. They wash faster than other tunnel washers due to superior dilution which means better soil removal.
Top Transfer Gives Better Control of Chemicals
Milnor’s top transfer feature assures bath integrity. Baths are truly independent, so the washing formula can work as planned. Because water is not pumped forward with each transfer, chemicals are better targeted to the proper baths. They don’t migrate uncontrollably to subsequent baths. Titrations show that with a Milnor, it is far easier to control pH.
Senking Universal SL Tunnel
Senking Universal SL Tunnel Washer
The flexible tunnel washer for processing linen at the highest hygiene level
Highlights
- Patented wash process
- Especially for the processing of linen types with high hygienic requirements like hospitals and nursing homes
- Identical drum configuration like the Senking Universal in the corresponding size
Patented wash process
- No reclaim tanks underneath the machine
- Only 1-2 central pipes in the machine
- The tunnel washer and the water extraction press is one unit – this avoids dirt and germs.
- Tuned to perfection – Higher efficiency, productivity and wash quality thanks to QuickSoak, EcoSafeguard and EcoTune
Especially for the processing of linen types with high hygienic requirement
- All pipes in stainless steel to avoid corrosion and dirt No tank cleaning saves manpower
Identical drum configuration like the Senking Universal in the corresponding size
- Open drum design ensures safest linen transfer
- Smart drum design combines less weight with more stability
- The Archimedian helix is the key to longevity: Both smooth and strong weldings ensure a long lifetime.
Easy and low maintenance
- Drain valves with quick release fasteners
- Automatic chain lubrication with grease level monitoring

Senking Universal Tunnel Washer
Senking Universal Tunnel Washer
Tuned to perfection: The versatile tunnel washer that reuses energy and water internally
Highlights
- Tuned to perfection – Higher efficiency, productivity and wash quality thanks to QuickSoak, EcoSafeguard and EcoTune
- Excellent wash and rinse results by processing the linen in separate compartments
- The improved geometry of the patented Archimedian helix makes efficient use of the drum diameter and enables high drop curves for outstanding wash action
Best washing performance
- Tuned to perfection – Higher efficiency, productivity and wash quality thanks to QuickSoak, EcoSafeguard and EcoTune!
- Higher mechanical action thanks to higher drop curve
- Full batch integrity of linen and liquor thanks to Archimedian helix (pat.)
- Hygienic drain design with self-cleaning effect
- Best lint removal by efficient foam overflows
Most reliable operational safety
- The drum geometry and the design of the reclaim tanks are adjusted to the high polluting load and prevent an additional sedimentation of solids in the mats (sand, chips, etc.).
- As there are no rough edges, there is an immense high self-cleaning effect which saves time and money.
- State-of-the-art control system with compound redundancy
Highest efficiency and sustainability
- The wash beaters are adapted and customized for the necessity of having a high wash mechanics: Four high wash beaters increase the drop curve for an utmost of mechanical action.
- Lowest water consumption thanks to patented rinse process for quickest dilution and outstanding recovery concept
- Water and chemical supply is based on actual batch weights
- Unique steam supply into the drum to save energy and time
- Smart drum design combines less weight with more stability
Easy and low maintenance
- Drain valves with quick release fasteners
- Automatic chain lubrication with grease level monitoring
- Control system with maintenance and service mode for highest operator convenience
