Acrobat 2X touchless car wash machine
Brushless rollover with PLC control, a 100 or 200 bar pump and a plant length of 6.5 to 15 m.
The Acrobat 2X is a touchless car wash machine built by Europe Makine: a brushless rollover that washes with water from a 100 or 200 bar pump and chemical foam, run by PLC-controlled automation. Two movable arms work on a supporting bridge, read the vehicle profile and clean the front, back, sides and top with no brush on the paint.
The plant length runs from 6.5 to 15 m and is specified for each site. The machine can wash and dry, and its modular build takes optional accessories.

How the Acrobat 2X washes
The Acrobat 2X cleans with high-pressure water and chemical foam, and uses no brushes. Two movable arms on a supporting bridge wash the whole upper body of the vehicle, starting at the front plate section and following at a distance to the rear plate section.
Surface detection and arm movement
- The arms change direction automatically and detect surfaces from the vehicle profile, so the front, back, sides and top are all cleaned.
- Movement runs in six axes. The movable washing arms, the foam spraying system and the high-pressure washing system all have 3D capabilities.
- Inverters control every movement, with various speed options. Inverter speed control gives significant energy savings.
Foam, pressure and drying
- The foam spraying system uses 20 to 30 gr of chemical foam per vehicle, and wax is used at 20 gr per vehicle.
- High-efficiency piston-type jet pumps deliver water at 100 or 200 bar.
- The nozzles send vibrating, pulsating water that cleans without damaging the vehicle.
- A pressure adjustment valve makes the water pressure customizable.
- The machine can wash and dry. Drying has its own installed power of 33 kW.
- The machine offers various washing programs.
Automatic touchless car wash for finishes that must not be touched
An automatic touchless car wash suits vehicles whose finish or livery must not be touched. On the Acrobat 2X, wrapped, matte and freshly finished vehicles can be washed without abrasion. Water at 100 to 200 bar and chemical foam do the cleaning.
Vehicle sizes
The Acrobat 2X washes vehicles of all sizes up to 2.20 m in height and 2.20 m in width. For buses, coaches, rigid trucks, vans and trailers, we build the SUNRISE truck and bus wash gantry.
Where the Acrobat 2X fits
- Vehicles with wraps, matte paint or a fresh finish.
- Vehicles with a livery that must not be touched.
- Sites with little room, where an automatic touchless car wash has to fit a short plant length.
Touchless car wash system: bridge, arms, pumps and control
The Acrobat 2X touchless car wash system is built around a supporting bridge, two movable washing arms, a high-pressure pump group and a PLC control system.
- Bridge and arms. Two movable arms operate on the supporting bridge and move in six axes.
- Pump group. High-efficiency piston-type jet pumps sit on a special chassis inside a protected cabin and supply water at 100 or 200 bar.
- Control. PLC-controlled advanced automation runs the wash, and inverters drive every movement.
- Construction. All metal parts are hot-dip galvanized, and the galvanized surfaces carry electrostatic paint.
Modular build
The system is modular, so it adapts to different washing needs and takes various optional accessories. Ask which accessories suit your touchless car wash system when you request a quote.

What is the Acrobat 2X operation time?
Ask for the Acrobat 2X operation time with your quotation, and tell us how many vehicles you expect to wash. We prepare the proforma at no charge.

How much space does the Acrobat 2X need?
The plant length is 6.5 to 15 m, specified for each site. The machine itself is up to 4.20 m wide and 3.20 m high, and it washes vehicles up to 2.20 m high and 2.20 m wide. The Acrobat 2X can be installed even in the tightest spaces, and its modular build adapts to different washing needs.

Yes. The Acrobat 2X can wash and dry. Drying has its own installed power of 33 kW, against 35 kW for washing only and 75 kW for all units together. You choose washing only, or washing and drying, when we prepare your proforma quotation, and the site power is planned to match.

Wrapped, matte and freshly finished vehicles can be washed without abrasion, and a pressure adjustment valve lets you set the water pressure.
Should I choose a touchless or a brush rollover?
Choose a touchless rollover such as the Acrobat 2X when the finish or livery must not be touched: it cleans with water at 100 to 200 bar and chemical foam, without brushes.
