Magido Italy
Aqueous Parts Washers Built Different
Magido USA manufactures industrial aqueous parts washers and water-based parts cleaning systems engineered entirely from 100% AISI 304 stainless steel — not just the wash zone, but every surface, weld, and component inside and out.
With 75 models across 7 machine types and 45+ years of precision manufacturing in Italy, there's a Magido stainless steel parts washer for every part size, throughput, and cleanliness requirement.
What Is an Aqueous Parts Washer?
An aqueous parts washer is an industrial cleaning machine that uses heated water combined with biodegradable detergent — rather than hazardous chemical solvents — to remove manufacturing contaminants from metal parts and components.
Also called a water-based parts washer, aqueous cleaning systems deliver powerful degreasing performance while eliminating the worker safety hazards, environmental liabilities, and regulatory burdens associated with solvent-based cleaning.
Aqueous parts washers work by combining four cleaning factors — chemistry (detergent selection), thermal energy (heated solution), mechanical action (spray pressure or agitation), and time — to break down and remove oils, greases, chips, scale, and other process contamination from virtually any industrial component.
Why Aqueous Cleaning
The Case for Water-Based Parts Washing
Industries from automotive to aerospace have largely shifted from solvent to aqueous parts cleaning — and for good reason.
Worker & Environmental Safety
Water-based cleaning eliminates solvent vapors, flammability risk, and hazardous waste handling. Aqueous systems support OSHA compliance and a safer shop floor.
Superior Cleaning Performance
Heated aqueous solution with targeted spray impingement removes machining oils, coolants, chips, carbon deposits, and oxide scale from the most complex part geometries.
100% AISI 304 Stainless Steel
Every Magido aqueous parts washer is built entirely from AISI 304 stainless steel — cabinet, tank, internal structure, and spray manifolds — not just the wash zone.
Lower Operating Costs
Biodegradable detergents cost a fraction of industrial solvents. Extended bath life, integrated filtration, and solution recovery reduce consumable spend significantly.
Process Repeatability
Automated wash cycles with programmable temperature, pressure, and timing deliver consistent cleaning results every cycle — critical for production and quality-controlled environments.
Regulatory Compliance
Aqueous parts washing systems simplify EPA and local environmental compliance. No hazardous waste manifests, no solvent storage permits, no air quality concerns.
The Magido Standard
Every Aqueous Washer — 100% AISI 304 Stainless Steel Throughout
Most manufacturers use stainless steel only in the wash zone — the rest of the machine is carbon steel coated with paint or powder coat that eventually corrodes. Every Magido stainless steel parts washer is built from AISI 304 stainless steel throughout: cabinet walls, structural frame, internal spray manifolds, tank, conveyor components, and hardware. No rust. No repainting. No premature failures.

Customer Results
What Our Customers Say
Placeholder: "We replaced three aging solvent cabinets with a single Magido X53/2. Cleanliness improved, our inspectors have zero rejections from contamination, and we eliminated all our hazardous waste pickups."
Placeholder: "The AISI 304 construction throughout is what sold us. We've had other manufacturers' machines rust out after 5 years. The Magido has been running daily for 8 years without any corrosion issues."
Placeholder: "Scott walked us through the entire process evaluation before we committed. The Gold 2b conveyor washer he recommended handles our production volume perfectly — we haven't looked back."
