Cleanjet 1500: Automated drum cleaning system for truck mixers
Clean drums. More capacity. Less risk. Maximum efficiency.
What are the benefits of periodic drum cleaning with the Cleanjet 1500?
-
Teach and Go – True robotic cleaning relieves staff
After a short teaching process, the Cleanjet carries out the cleaning operation automatically, allowing the operator to leave the hazardous area. -
Cleaning without entering the drum prevents accidents
The automated cleaning process ensures safe operation by eliminating the need for staff to enter the drum, thereby avoiding risks such as oxygen deficiency, silica inhalation or mechanical injuries. -
Reduced fuel consumption, less wear
Clean drums lower the empty weight of your vehicles and reduce resistance during drum rotation, saving fuel and minimizing wear on both the vehicle and the drum. -
Improved mixing quality and faster concrete discharge
Regular cleaning maintains high mixing quality and allows concrete to be discharged more quickly. Residual concrete promotes further build-up, which is effectively prevented. -
Prevents overloading and potential fines
By removing unnecessary weight, legal load limits can be reliably observed – resulting in higher payload capacity and avoiding fines. -
Resource-efficient, electrically operated
The Cleanjet 1500 can be operated as a fully electric system, offering a sustainable and low-emission solution.
How does periodic cleaning with the Cleanjet 1500 work?
- One-time teaching process per truck for best results.
-
Position the truck (chute removed) at its dedicated parking spot at the lance.
-
Start at the push of a button – fully automated cleaning process.
-
Drain remaining water and residual concrete.
-
Reinstall chute and return truck to operation.
Advantage:
The operator can attend to other tasks during the cleaning process – best use of everyone's time!

Why automated drum cleaning is important
Concrete build-up in truck mixer drums leads to overloading, increased fuel consumption, wear, and loss of quality. Manual cleaning is dangerous, time-consuming, and inefficient.
With the Cleanjet 1500, you clean your drums fully automatically and safely – without entering the drum and with minimal interruption of your operations.
Concrete residues and build-up reduce the capacity and efficiency of your mixer drum. Traditional cleaning solutions quickly reach their limits.
With the WALTER Cleanjet, your drum shines like new – fully cleaned, free of concrete residues, and ready for maximum performance and efficiency.
Stubborn concrete build-up that previously had to be removed manually now dissolves effortlessly. The WALTER Cleanjet reliably clears the drum of hardened concrete – reducing wear, increasing load capacity, and maximizing efficiency.
Your benefits with the Cleanjet 1500

Preservation of drum capacity and mixing quality
Regular cleaning ensures full drum capacity and consistently high concrete quality. -
Lower costs and reduced maintenance
Clean drums minimize wear, repair needs, and fuel consumption. -
Increased efficiency without tying up personnel
Fully automated cleaning runs while your staff can focus on other tasks. -
Durable & "Made in Germany"
Engineered for the extreme conditions of the concrete industry – robust and CE-compliant.
Ready for the next job in just 2 hours!
Frequently Asked Questions
-
How often should periodic cleaning be carried out?
The cleaning frequency depends on utilisation and the type of concrete. Ideally, every 3–6 months to maintain drum capacity and mixing quality. -
Does the Cleanjet 1500 require a diesel drive?
No, the Cleanjet 1500 can also be operated electrically, making it quieter, more sustainable, and cost-efficient. This eliminates the maintenance and repair costs associated with a diesel engine. -
What sets the Cleanjet 1500 apart from manual cleaning?
It cleans automatically, without requiring personnel to enter the drum – saving time, reducing the risk of accidents, and lowering operating costs. -
Why is manual chipping inside truck mixer drums dangerous?
Entering the drum poses serious risks due to lack of oxygen, dust, heat, noise, mechanical injuries, and difficult rescue conditions – making it a high-risk task inside a confined space. DGUV Rule 113‑004 as well as a variety of local work safety guidelines define very strict requirements for working confined spaces.
For daily cleaning – our FMT solution
With our FMT solution for daily truck mixer cleaning, you remove concrete residues quickly and reliably right at the end of your work day or during lunch break – without entering the drum.
This prevents hazardous build-up, reduces drum wear, and ensures full capacity of your truck fleet at all times. Time spent cleaning is reduced to an absolute minimum – increasing efficiency in your day-to-day operations.
As a 2-in-1 combi unit, benefit from the best of both systems
Want to combine daily and periodic drum cleaning in one system?
With our 2-in-1 solution, you can have it all: daily cleaning with medium pressure for all those trucks that have access to the cleaning system every day plus periodic intensive cleaning at maximum pressure for those other trucks from other locations which can not access the cleaning facility each day. This keeps all of your truck mixers permanently clean, prevents hazardous concrete build-up, and significantly reduces drum wear.
