Fedjetting has launched its Rigid Lance Machine series in dual and triple rotary configurations, a purpose-built high-pressure cleaning solution for industrial heat exchangers, tube bundles, evaporators, and condensers. Delivering up to 40,000 PSI of targeted jet power with full remote operation capability, the systems deliver superior performance on tough deposits while removing operators from hazardous splash zones, improving both cleaning efficiency and worksite safety.
Fedjetting Introduces Rigid Lance Machine Lineup with Dual & Triple Rotary Technology for Industrial Heat Exchanger Maintenance
High-pressure rigid lance cleaning systems deliver stronger jet power and remote operation to tackle tough tube bundle deposits and elevate worksite safety.
Fedjetting, a leading provider of industrial high-pressure hydroblasting solutions, today announced the official launch of its Rigid Lance Machine – Dual/Triple Rotary series, an automated tube cleaning system engineered to address the most demanding heat exchanger and tube bundle maintenance challenges across process industries.
Fouling, scale buildup, and carbon deposits inside heat exchanger tubes reduce thermal efficiency, increase energy costs, and lead to unplanned production downtime. Conventional manual cleaning methods and flexible lancing systems often struggle with hard, stubborn deposits and expose on-site personnel to high-pressure splash and chemical hazards. Fedjetting’s new rigid lance platform solves these issues by combining rigid lance construction with rotary jet technology, delivering greater forward impact force and fully remote operation.
Product Configurations & Core Specifications
The Fedjetting Rigid Lance Machine series is available in both dual rotary and triple rotary configurations to match different cleaning workloads:
- Pressure ratings: 15,000 PSI (1000 bar), 22,000 PSI (1500 bar), and 40,000 PSI (2800 bar) to cover light to heavy-duty deposit removal
- Stroke length: Up to 60 feet (18.2 meters), accommodating full-length cleaning of standard industrial tube bundles
- Rotary speed: 105–525 RPM, adjustable for optimal cleaning performance across different deposit types
- Inlet connections: Sized to match 22K and 44K pressure class requirements for secure, leak-free operation
As the industry standard for both horizontal and vertical rigid lance cleaning, the system is compatible with heat exchangers, tube bundles, evaporators, and condensers of any size, and can be configured for either horizontal or vertical operation to match existing facility layouts.
Key Design Advantages for Industrial Cleaning Operations
- Superior Cleaning Power Unlike flexible lancing systems, Fedjetting’s rigid lance design delivers significantly more forward jet impact force, making it highly effective at removing thin, hard scale, carbon buildup, coke, and polymer residues that standard cleaning methods cannot fully eliminate. This thorough cleaning restores heat exchanger thermal efficiency and extends service intervals.
- Remote Operation for Enhanced Safety The system supports fully remote operation, allowing operators to position themselves up to 25 feet (7.6 meters) away from the splash-back zone. This eliminates direct exposure to high-pressure water spray, dislodged debris, and chemical residues, drastically reducing workplace injury risks and improving compliance with industrial safety standards.
- Robust, Stable Construction Dual coil springs reinforce the guide block assembly for improved safety and operational stability. The machine comes standard with heavy-duty locking swivel casters for easy mobility around the plant floor, while jack stands and rear supports provide additional stability and anchoring at critical operating points.
- Flexible, Adaptable Configuration The platform supports single, dual, or triple lance operation to match specific bundle sizes and cleaning productivity requirements. It can be powered by either air or hydraulic systems to integrate with existing plant utility infrastructure, and adapts seamlessly to both vertical and horizontal tube bundle orientations.
Ideal Applications
The Rigid Lance Machine – Dual/Triple Rotary series is engineered for a wide range of industrial tube maintenance tasks:
- Clearing and unplugging vertical and horizontal tube bundles
- Cleaning and polishing evaporator tubes
- Removing hard scale, carbon deposits, coke, and polymer buildup
- Routine maintenance of condensers, heat exchangers, and process piping
“Heat exchanger fouling costs process industries billions annually in lost efficiency and downtime,” said a Fedjetting spokesperson. “Our rigid lance machines don’t just clean tubes – they deliver a safer, more efficient maintenance solution that helps facilities get their heat transfer equipment back to peak performance faster, with less risk to their teams.”
