La stessa linea di lavaggio modulare in tre lunghezze. Scelga in base al traffico previsto e allo spazio disponibile, poi configuri le stazioni al suo interno.
| Model | Throughput | Tunnel length | Site length needed | Typical operator |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| KKE Gamma 30 m | 100–120 cars/hour | 30 m | 45–50 m | Express chains, busy locations |
| KKE Gamma 18 m | 50–60 cars/hour | 18 m | about 33 m | Fuel stations, service centres, standalone washes |
| KKE Gamma 12 m | 20–30 cars/hour | 12 m | about 25 m | A first conveyor site, or a constrained plot |
Dentro il tunnel
Ogni auto incontra ogni stazione alla stessa velocita
E il nastro a dettare il ritmo, quindi il lavaggio non cambia con la coda ne con chi e di turno: stesso tempo sotto la schiuma, stessi passaggi, stessa asciugatura per la prima auto del mattino e per l'ultima della sera.
- High-pressure pre-wash, then foam over the whole shell
- A cloth mitter curtain across the roof and the glass
- Vertical wrap brushes on the flanks and the nose
- Wax, spot-free rinse and blower drying before the exit
Tunnel express
KKE Gamma 30 m
Tunnel express a lunghezza piena per grandi volumi. Il nastro trasporta le auto attraverso lavaggio, risciacquo e asciugatura senza fermarsi, cosi un afflusso improvviso si accoda sul piazzale e non dentro l'impianto.
- 100–120 cars per hour throughput
- Continuous conveyor — no stop-go cycles
- Express exterior through to full-service programmes
- Built for express car wash chains
Tunnel di media portata
KKE Gamma 18 m
Il punto di equilibrio per attivita di media dimensione: ciclo completo di lavaggio, risciacquo e asciugatura in un ingombro che la maggior parte dei lotti riesce davvero ad accogliere.
- 50–60 cars per hour throughput
- Full wash, rinse and dry cycle
- Balanced size for medium sites
- Lower investment than a full express tunnel
Tunnel compatto
KKE Gamma 12 m
La porta d'ingresso all'autolavaggio tunnel, e il modello piu spesso scelto per sostituire un portale: occupa press'a poco la stessa lunghezza di baia.
- 20–30 cars per hour throughput
- Compact footprint — fits constrained sites
- Lower investment than the longer tunnels
- An entry point into the express wash business

A commissioned KKE tunnel, running
Not a stand model and not a render: a KKE conveyor tunnel in daily service — the belt set into the floor, the curtain hung off the gantry, the wrap brushes closing on the car, the portal naming the step. Every photograph on this page started as a frame of site video of that machine and has been digitally enhanced for the web; ask us for the originals, or come and stand in the lane.

Volumi piu contenuti?
Deve lavare da 5 a 15 auto all'ora?
I tunnel sono costruiti per la produttivita e sotto una certa soglia di traffico la lunghezza smette di ripagarsi. Se i suoi volumi sono piu contenuti, un portale e la risposta corretta.

FAQ
Domande frequenti sull'autolavaggio tunnel
Tunnel or rollover — which should I choose?
Tunnels handle 20–120 cars an hour and need a longer site: 12 m to 30 m of tunnel plus entry and exit space. Rollovers handle 5–15 cars an hour in a single bay. Choose a tunnel if you have the traffic and the length; a rollover if your volume is moderate or your site is tight.
How much space does a tunnel need?
The tunnel itself is 12 m, 18 m or 30 m depending on the model. Add 8–10 m for the queue at entry and about 5 m at exit for drying. Total site length works out at roughly 25 m for the Gamma 12 m, and 45–50 m for the Gamma 30 m.
Can I customise the wash stages?
Yes — the tunnels are modular. Choose from high-pressure pre-wash, foam arch, friction brushes, wax application, spot-free rinse and blower drying, and configure the stages around what your market expects and the price points you want to sell.
Is water recycling required?
Strongly recommended. At 50–120 cars an hour water consumption is significant, and recycling cuts fresh-water draw by up to 90% — which matters for both cost control and environmental compliance.
Do you provide installation and training?
Yes: complete installation, commissioning, operator training and after-sales support. A tunnel installation takes two to four weeks depending on site readiness, and remote diagnostics are available for ongoing maintenance.
What is the typical investment range?
It varies with tunnel length, the wash stages you choose and the accessories. The Gamma 12 m is the entry level; a Gamma 30 m in a full express configuration is the premium tier. Tell us about your site and we will price the configuration that fits it.
