Made in Germany and field-proven since 2001, the GunFlash EVO system delivers exceptional cleaning performance for tank barrels. Its advanced brush system ensures thorough removal of contaminants, enhancing shooting accuracy, preventing corrosion, and extending barrel lifespan. Together with Kappa’s inspection technology, users can maintain peak reliability and readiness of their tank guns.

Key features of the GunFlash EVO system:

• Single-person operation – Practical and efficient in the field
• Pneumatic feed system – Consistent, powerful movement with a unique caterpillar-like mechanism
• Automatic reverse function – Smooth and user-friendly operation
• Tool-free assembly and brush replacement – Simplifies maintenance
• Flexible power options – Compatible with compressors, tanks, or vehicle systems

Optional add-ons include the SmartView HD camera system for visual inspection and documentation, and the SmartComp compressor for autonomous field use.

Sebastian Vreemann, CEO of Kappa optronics, and his team visited the Niebling group to formalize the partnership. The signing marks the beginning of a powerful collaboration set to redefine the standards for barrel maintenance and inspection.

“We are thrilled to join forces with Niebling,” said Vreemann. “Their cleaning expertise perfectly complements our inspection technology. Together, we’re setting new industry benchmarks for performance and safety.”
