Operators shall be capable of controlling the system through a touchscreen, Human Machine Interface (HMI). The process shall be performed by a high-intensity water blast system. The system shall be capable of removing 1" thick bonded rubber from the roadwheels down to bare metal without removing metal from the surface of the wheel. The roadwheels shall be placed into the cell via pallets that Red River Army Depot Rubber Products Branch already uses for roadwheel transport and processing in other areas of production. A material handling six axis robotic arm shall be utilized to load the machine to include custom end of arm tooling. A fixture/stainless steel chuck shall secure the wheel inside of the cabinet. The Cabinet shall contain all of the water and rubber debris being removed from the roadwheel. All materials inside of the cabinet shall be made of stainless steel material.

Each cycle shall take no more than 6 minutes maximum in continuous operation from the time the wheel is mounted to a fixture, processed and removed from the fixture without damaging the metal wheel. The process water shall be filtered down to a 5 to 10 micron contaminate particle size prior to being released into the industrial waste sewer drains.
