TORNECH series

Product catalog summary

Overview:
The NAFFCO Highspeed Airport Runway Sweeper, known as "TORNECH," is a specialized airfield runway sweeping machine designed to clean taxiways, runways, and aprons. It features an air circulation system that ensures low emission values in expelled air.

Drive Concepts:
The TORNECH is equipped with a hydrostatic drive system that allows the drive motor to operate efficiently. It includes a Drive Selection Switch (DSS) for quick transitions between working and driving modes. The machine is powered by a 180 kW, 6-cylinder engine, which drives the suction fan and body hydraulics independently from the chassis engine.

Key Features:

Hydrostatic Drive: Ensures efficient operation with a rear engine PTO.
Control Panel: Tactile switches allow operation without visual distraction, enhancing focus on sweeping and driving.
Sweeping Unit: Moveable unit allows high-speed operation on bends, with a trailing brush for optimal cleaning.
Control Centre: Centralized, accessible controls for compressed air, hydraulic, and electrical systems, designed to be dust and waterproof.
Suction Fan: Capable of sweeping at speeds up to 40 km/h.
Inspection Door: Provides easy access to suction hoses, extending their lifespan and reducing costs.
Water Tank: Lightweight, non-corrosive GRP tank prevents limescale buildup and improves stability and soundproofing.
Debris Container: Features a V2A bottom sheet and large tipping angle for efficient emptying and cleaning, with an air circulation system for high debris separation efficiency.

Air Circulation System:
The system recirculates up to 70% of the suction fan exhaust air to reduce dust emissions and increase suction power. It uses flexible hoses to blow recycled air behind the roller broom, enhancing the sweeping process. The system eliminates the need for additional filters by freeing the fan exhaust of dust.

Optional Features:

Blower nozzles adjustable manually or from the cab
Glycol suction system integrated into the sweeping unit
Noise insulation and disc brooms on both sides
Manual suction system at the rear
Magnetic bar, hot-water cleaning systems, and container heating

Models:
The TORNECH is available in two models: TORNECH 7 and TORNECH 9, with hopper capacities of 7 m3 and 9.5 m3, and water capacities of up to 3,200 liters and 3,700 liters, respectively. Both models can sweep at speeds up to 40 km/h.

Note: Specifications are subject to change without prior notice.

AIR CIRCULATION SYSTEM The Air Circulation System is recirculating up to 70% of the suction fan exhaust air to reduce the dust emission and to increase the suction power. Through three flexible hoses, the recycled air will be blown out behind the roller broom of the sweep gear to increase the sufficiency of the sweeping process. The non-recycled part of the fan exhaust will be decelerated and released to the environment under the sweeper body. Together with the dust separation system inside of the hopper, the air recirculation system is helping to free the fan exhaust of the dust, so that no...
