80 years of expertise in the manufacture of all types of brushes

With over 80 years of expertise in the manufacture of all types of brushes, Davy offers its customers consulting, design and manufacturing of technical brushes customized for integration into any industrial machinery.

WHAT ARE TECHNICAL BRUSHES?

Technical brushes are specialized brushes designed to be mounted on various industrial machines to perform specific operations throughout the production process.

Specifically, Davy designs and manufactures punched technical brushes, which consist of a support or body into which tufts or bundles of different filaments are inserted using a process known as tufting or punching.

The Body of Technical Brushes

The body of the brush can take on various shapes and sizes, depending on its specific function—whether for transportation, cleaning, or protection. The materials used range from plastic, aluminum, and wood, thus allowing the manufacture of brushes of any shape and weight while ensuring compatibility with diverse industrial environments, including harsh conditions involving exposure to water, solvents, or acids.

THE TUFTS OF TECHNICAL BRUSHES

The tufts of technical brushes vary depending on the intended function of the finished product. They can be made from three main categories of materials: natural bristles, plastic fibers and metallic filaments. For special applications, we can also provide food-grade certified materials or antistatic and conductive fibers, making them suitable for ATEX certification when required. Beyond the material composition, tuft size and arrangement on the body play a crucial role in determining the brush's effectiveness. From a size perspective, larger tufts are preferred for heavy-duty tasks that require thicker filaments, while for delicate applications, thin filaments grouped into smaller tufts are used. Regarding tuft arrangement, different configurations serve specific purposes: a staggered arrangement creates a dense and uniform brush surface, an aligned arrangement reduces density, making it easier to discharge debris and a helical arrangement allows precise directional control of waste flow.

DAVY’S TECHNICAL BRUSHES

Davy manufactures all main types of technical brushes, serving the needs of every industrial sector:

We manufacture fully custom-made brushes, handling both design and manufacturing in-house. Our specialist technicians offer expert consultation for the development of new brushes as well as the redesign and performance enhancement of existing brushes used in customer machinery, particularly in the spare parts sector. We can accommodate any order size, from large-scale productions to small batches made entirely to customer specifications.

APPLICATIONS OF TECHNICAL BRUSHES

Technical brushes are used in a wide variety of industrial processes due to their ability to perform diverse tasks. Generally, a brush is integrated into a machine for two main reasons: to handle soft or delicate materials and to apply specific substances (such as lubricants, detergents, or air jets) during processing. Thanks to their versatility, brushes can be used for transporting parts along a production line, performing specialized operations on components, cleaning and washing production pieces and serving as protective seals for machinery.
