GERMAN TECHNOLOGY

SMETS machines are like a smart puzzle – balanced for the best possible performance and minimised TCO costs. DNA of all SMETS vehicles is high performance and reliability of the whole design concept. Combination of powerful pumps, engines for powering of truck and pumps, various cleaning heads and other components. SMETS machines are really robust and compact and offer variety of perfectly balanced devices depending on specific needs of airport and road customers.

SMETS cleaning vehicles use premium quality pumps and patented hardened steel nozzles.

SMETS´ surface cleaners use water jetting technology of dispersed droplets of very high speed and dynamics instead of conventional technologies where local highly pressurized water beam might be causing too much stress and impact on road, with much higher risk for damage and loss of surface integrity.

SMETS nozzles rotate extremely fast, much faster than of most of the competitors. At max. speed of 377 km / h (800 mm heads) and at speed of 470 km / h (1000 mm heads). Because of physics and nature of highly dispersed water it makes the technology safer >> causes far LESS STRESS TO ANY SURFACE.

Compact design of SMETS vehicles guarantees:

  • no surface damage due to gentle working pressures
  • maximum reliability and long lifespan of vehicles and superstructure and “not to become short on breath” on even hardest project, at constant temperatures above 50 degrees Celsius
  • lowest water consumption as peak hydropower technology, with lowest OPEX and CAPEX costs worldwide compared to great vehicle performances
  • variable system of UHWP cleaning heads of 360 mm, 500 mm, 800 mm and 1000 mm and other cleaning applications >> only supplier offering up to 11 options on ARC vehicles to form a compact sweeper in single unit

EXTRAORDINARY PERFORMANCE AND DRIVER´S COMFORT

All SMETS machines provide gentle surface treatment and extraordinary cleaning performance and one of the most comfortable and „driver – friendly” operating ergonomics amongst all cleaning vehicles.
