Success stories with ZELL systems solutions and processes
"We have been partnering with ZELL Systemtechnik GmbH since 2010. Some of the load carriers have been in use for over 8 years! (Video)"
"The use of Zell's workpiece carrier systems/cleaning baskets means an improvement in quality for us when it comes to parts cleaning. With the modular system, we have succeeded in transporting our components sustainably. This process ensures that our parts remain scratch-free in all production processes."
Pero AG confirms that it has tested the Zell Factory System for compatibility with modified alcohols in combination with ultrasound. After ultrasonic cleaning with solvent, no optical or mechanical changes could be detected.
ZELL has taken parts cleaning and intralogistics to a whole new level. When we ask for help, we get solution-oriented suggestions. Their outside perspective often helps us out.
We have been working in partnership with ZELL since 2016. ZELL© stainless steel allows us to clean our products in a targeted manner. The special positioning of the parts in the clips means that they are contact-free and can therefore be washed in a rotating motion without damage. Our different product sizes require different holders. Before using the ZELL systems, we could only wash "semi-positioned" or loose, which meant that we could only wash statically or with swivelling. Overall, we now achieve a better cleaning result. We particularly liked the possibility of individual customisation at ZELL. (Video)
"The use of Zell workpiece carrier systems means a noticeable improvement in quality for us throughout the entire cleaning and manufacturing process. The modular system enables safe, damage-free transport of our sensitive components while ensuring optimal rinsing during parts cleaning. For us at ebm-papst, this is a decisive contribution to our high quality standards. We are particularly impressed by the sustainable, modular approach of the systems—a cost-efficient alternative that perfectly matches our quality standards."
We have been successfully using the ZELL Factory System at our site for a year now. The plastic workpiece carriers are ideal for the internal transport of our precision parts. Optimal separation guarantees that our high-quality components remain free of contact. This allows us to avoid micro-scratches and impact marks during production. Together with ZELL, we have developed several new Multiclips that have been optimized for our components so that we can efficiently load a maximum number of them in the factory. We greatly appreciate the possibility of cleaning components in the same workpiece carrier. Overall, we are very satisfied with the implementation of the project.
We have been using workpiece carrier systems from ZELL for several years. We use them in our production facilities for the secure storage, transport, and cleaning of high-quality dental tools. The systems offer us a reliable, clean, and reproducible solution that is optimally tailored to our requirements. Thanks to the modular design and the wide range of clips available, we can respond flexibly to new product launches while maintaining the stability and high quality of our existing processes.

Müller PrecisionIn accordance with standard cleaning systems, ZELL has also standardized its cleaning baskets in sizes Schäfer 1 (630x450 mm) and Schäfer 2 (450x300 mm). These dimensions result from the use of cleaning frames for our baskets in the dimensions 400x600 mm and 400x300 mm respectively.
Our standardized basket solutions are suitable for components with different geometries and sizes. In addition, small Parts can be washed gently in bulk. Our plastic baskets are inserted modularly into larger basket systems or Part carriers. The complete system can thus always be stacked and picked in a space-saving manner. Our basket inserts are also suitable for automated Part storage in defined comPartments.
Standardized cleaning baskets are designed to fit common cleaning systems and devices. They are compatible with various industrial cleaning processes such as ultrasonic cleaning, spray cleaning and immersion cleaning. This compatibility enables easy integration into existing cleaning processes without extensive modifications or adjustments to the Part carrier system.
Our baskets are standardized to the logistic dimensions 200x300, 400x600, 800x600, as well as Schäfer I and II dimensions, to which most cleaning systems are designed.
Standardized industrial cleaning baskets are made of high-quality materials such as stainless steel or durable plastics. These materials offer excellent resistance to chemicals, heat and mechanical stress. This allows the baskets to withstand intensive cleaning processes and maintain their structural integrity over time. This results in longer service life and lower replacement costs.
Cleaning baskets made of welded stainless steel frames, with modular plastic inserts, have proven most effective. These include the aforementioned plastic baskets for small Parts, as well as mounted clips/multiclips or inserted Part carriers. ZELL therefore offers three categories of stainless steel cleaning baskets in four different heights (100, 200, 300, 400 mm):
Again and again, there are also individual requests from customers. For example, ZELL has already developed a suitable solution for the existing cleaning system. Individual trays can be inserted flexibly in height via integrated plate elements. This means that a wide range of Parts can be covered without the need for costly conversion work. The basket material is made of V2A, 1.4301 with electropolished surfaces. Cleaning baskets in this form are suitable for industries with very large components that vary in shape.
More about our cleaning baskets for large components
Improved safety
Standardized cleaning baskets have safety features such as handles, locking mechanisms and ergonomic designs. These features facilitate safe handling, transport and loading/unloading of Parts, both in automated processes and manually. In addition, standardized baskets undergo extensive testing to ensure compliance with relevant safety standards and minimize the risk of accidents or injuries during the cleaning process.
Cost savings
Standardized cleaning baskets offer cost advantages compared to individual solutions. Because of their standardized design, they can be produced in larger quantities in stock. This usually results in lower unit costs and offers a more favorable alternative, especially for customers with large production runs.
Clear identification of all Parts to be washed
Cleaning baskets from ZELL can optionally be ordered with identification holders. RFID chips can be attached to these or bar or QR codes can be lasered in. These enable the unique identification of Parts during the entire cleaning process in real time and thus contribute directly to quality management.
Sustainable maintenance options
In addition, the standardized design of modular cleaning baskets simplifies maintenance and repair procedures, as individual spare Parts or components are readily available and interchangeable. This also makes ZELL's baskets a sustainable alternative to existing basket systems.
