1. Product Overview
The Automatic Shoe Sole Cleaning Machine PBW-11W provides a practical way to clean shoe and boot soles before workers enter hygiene-controlled production areas.
When a worker steps into the cleaning area, the sensor detects the footwear and automatically starts the cleaning cycle. Rotating brushes remove dirt and contaminants from the shoe soles while the selected cleaning mode supplies clean water or detergent.
The PBW-11W is constructed from SUS 304 stainless steel with hygienic pipes and fittings, making it suitable for daily use in food processing environments. Its compact design also makes it suitable for personnel entrances and transition points between different hygiene zones.
Unlike a full boot washing system, the PBW-11W focuses specifically on shoe sole cleaning. It is a practical option for facilities that need footwear hygiene without a complete boot washing process.
2. Key Features
Automatic Sensor Start
The sensor detects the user’s footwear and starts the cleaning cycle automatically. As a result, workers do not need to operate the machine manually during normal use.
Three Cleaning Modes
The PBW-11W provides three cleaning options:
- Clean water cleaning
- Low-concentration detergent cleaning
- High-concentration detergent cleaning
Therefore, operators can select the cleaning level according to the site’s hygiene requirements.
304 Stainless Steel Construction
WONE builds the machine with SUS 304 stainless steel and uses hygienic pipes and fittings. This construction supports daily use in food processing environments and makes routine cleaning easier.
Food-Grade Polyester Brushes
The machine uses high-strength food-grade polyester brushes. The material resists corrosion, does not easily shed fibers and allows operators to clean the brushes easily.
Quick-Release Brush Design
Operators can remove the brushes without special tools. In addition, the quick-release design simplifies routine cleaning, inspection and maintenance.
Automatic Motor Speed Control
The machine automatically controls the motor speed during operation. It also includes overload protection to support stable daily performance.
Compact Footprint
The PBW-11W measures only 500 × 670 mm at the base. Therefore, it can fit into relatively small personnel transition areas.
Safety Protection
The machine includes overload, short-circuit and leakage protection. These features help operators use the equipment safely during daily production.
3. How It Works
Step 1 — Step In
The worker steps onto the designated shoe sole cleaning area.
Step 2 — Automatic Detection
The sensor detects the user’s footwear and starts the cleaning system.
Step 3 — Brush Cleaning
Next, the rotating polyester brushes contact the shoe soles and remove dirt and other contaminants.
Step 4 — Water or Detergent Application
At the same time, the selected cleaning mode supplies clean water or detergent to support the cleaning process.
Step 5 — Enter the Next Zone
After the cleaning cycle, the worker can continue into the designated production or hygiene-controlled area.
Automatic start. Controlled cleaning. Simple operation.

5. Where Is the PBW-11W Used?
The PBW-11W works best at personnel transition points where workers move from a less hygienic area into a hygiene-controlled production area.
Rather than simply listing industries, it is more useful to look at where footwear can carry contaminants and where the facility needs an additional cleaning step.
Typical applications include:
- Food production entrances
- High-care and hygiene-controlled areas
- Raw material to processing areas
- Production to packaging areas
- Personnel transition points between hygiene zones
A typical personnel flow is:
General Area → Shoe Sole Cleaning → Hygiene-Controlled Area
The PBW-11W adds a dedicated footwear cleaning step to help reduce the transfer of dirt and contaminants between production zones.
