Zusammenfassung:	A jetting-module cleaning system for cleaning the nozzle plate of a jetting module includes a non-rotating shaft and a rotating wiper mechanism. The non-rotating shaft includes one or more outlet openings extending from its hollow core to its outer surface. The rotating wiper mechanism includes a rotating sleeve having one or more openings extending from its hollow core to its outer surface, and one or more wiper blades. The rotating wiper mechanism rotates around the non-rotating shaft. A pressurized fluid source supplies pressurized cleaning fluid to the hollow core of the non-rotating shaft. An actuator rotates the rotating wiper mechanism around its axis. Cleaning fluid is sprayed onto the nozzle plate through the one or more outlet openings in the non-rotating shaft when the openings in the rotating sleeve are aligned with the outlet openings in the non-rotating shaft.
