The product of parts2clean is a condition: a part without chips, oil or particles. Photographically that is a challenge, because cleanliness is invisible — what can be shown are the system, the process and the comparison. We photograph cleaning systems with their stainless steel chambers, nozzles, baskets and operator displays so that process and structure are recognisable, with a controlled angle against the reflections of the hall lighting on bright stainless steel and glass chamber doors.
And we show the result: the cleaned part next to the soiled one, the surface in macro, the workpiece carrier with sorted parts, the inspection result on the screen of the particle counter or residual contamination analyser. Cleaning media in containers and samples are photographed with side light so clarity, colour and viscosity remain visible.
Cleaning processes run behind closed doors — spraying, ultrasonics, immersion, drying — and are hard to convey in a photo. We film the sequence at your demo system from two perspectives, through viewing windows where they exist, and add close-ups of basket movement, nozzles and operation. The result is a 30-second highlight for LinkedIn and vertical clips for your distributors. A statement by your process engineer or product manager with a wireless microphone explains process and field of use, delivered with subtitles.
If your company speaks in the parts2clean expert forum, we photograph talk, slides and audience as well — the forum is well attended and a strong subject for the show report.
parts2clean takes place annually; you need the material from Stuttgart straight away for the show report, website and invitations to the next edition. Tuesday is opening day with the start of the forum and international visitors; Wednesday brings the densest technical conversations and suits conversation pictures and interviews. Thursday is quieter — good for system shots with time for lighting and for team portraits.
Stand overviews without visitors are taken before opening, when your system is already running and the baskets are loaded. parts2clean is a compact fair; your stand can often be covered completely in a two-hour package. You receive the highlight video and first images the same evening.
Stainless steel chambers, nozzles and baskets without hall reflections, operator display legible, process recognisable.
Cleaned next to soiled part, surface in macro — cleanliness visible as a comparison.

A post with your stand while the show is still running gets seen and shared. That is why every package includes finished photos and video within 24 hours after the event ends — first images usually the same day. Two revision rounds included.
A sample from our production: the event recap for your website and LinkedIn — below it, native 9:16 footage for Reels, Shorts and Stories, shot in parallel with the main coverage.
