Abstract
A system and process for cleaning a jet engine component and, more particularly, a system and process for cleaning the inside surfaces of a jet engine component comprising a frame having a turbine engine component support surface for supporting a turbine engine component; a drive motor mounted on the frame and having a driver. A cleaner assembly is coupled to the driver and adapted to rotate when the drive motor is energized. The cleaner assembly is adapted to be removeably mounted on the driver so that the cleaner assembly becomes positioned in operative relationship with the surface to be cleaned so that when the drive motor is energized, the cleaner assembly rotates and wipes, scrubs and/or polishes the surface to be cleaned and the cleaner assembly comprises a wiper comprising the cleaning area.
