Tired of sticky chips during a poker game at your local card club? Or muck, dirt and stains clearly visible on the chips at the casino?
Well, I was. Especially at my own poker club. So back in 2021 I started looking for a machine which did the cleaning job more efficient than a bucket of water, some soap, a brush and manual labour. It turned out that there are some machines available but they are not very efficient. It is likely quicker to make good use of the bucket-and-water alternative...
I thought there might be a better way! So, I made my first manually operated machine in my garage. With old left-over wood from housebuilding, PVC tubes, some duct tape and a generous helping of willpower, this contraption holds the unofficial world record of chip cleaning & drying!
Right now, this Proof of Concept is being refined and automated, local chemistry industry has made a cleaning solvent which is unharmful to any chip.
This Second Prototype has a run-rate of 40000 chips per hour, cleaning and drying, automatically. I expect to present a product for the gambling industry by October 2024.
ABOUT THE MACHINE
The Chip Cleaner utilizes cutting-edge technology, devised by a Norwegian offshore company, to deliver unmatched performance and reliability.
How does it work?
Loading:
Simply load your less clean chips into the machine's hopper. The machine is designed to accommodate various chip sizes and materials, ensuring compatibility with your existing inventory.
Washing:
Once loaded, the machine starts and the chips undergo a soft and harmless cleaning process. The Chip Cleaner employs a combination of tap water and specialized Ph-neutral cleaning solutions to remove dirt, grime, and biological material from the surface of each chip.
Drying:
After washing, the chips are swiftly dried. This ensures rapid drying without compromising the integrity of the chips, allowing for quick turnaround times and minimal downtime.
Quality Assurance:
Throughout the entire process, our machine maintains strict quality control measures to ensure that every chip emerges clean, unscathed, and ready to use.
