Building sustainability into your cleaning process is a manufacturing effort that has been growing for years. Prior to the turn of the century, most metal fabricating companies and machine shops only concerned themselves with preventing pollution and protecting their workers’ health and safety. But over the past two decades their focus has widened. Today, many…
Vapor degreasing is a powerful, proven cleaning technology originally developed in the 1940s. Today, using modern, environmentally-progressive solvents, vapor degreasing can deliver fast, consistent and safe cleaning results even for the most challenging applications. It does so in a manner that is both affordable and environmentally benign. This poster explains the key features and benefits…
When selecting a new, long-term critical cleaning process, sorting through all the conflicting claims of the cleaning product manufacturers is a challenge. Many companies only look at the cost of a machine or a drum of solvent. They believe the lowest priced machine or the cheapest cost per gallon is the best choice.This is not the…
At most companies the emphasis is on cutting operating costs. And there is one potentially large source of savings in the parts cleaning department. Consider switching your aqueous or other cleaning system for a small, fast and efficient vapor degreaser. Today, many innovative manufacturers are doing just that, simply to save money on their electric…
In the finishing industry today, the most common cleaning system is based on water technology. Since the move away from the two most common vapor degreasing solvents (CFC113 and 1-1-1-trichloroethane) over the past decade due to suspected ozone depletion, aqueous cleaning has become a tried-and-true process. But aqueous cleaning systems tend to have large footprints,…
In the finishing industry today, the most common precision cleaning system is based on water technology. This is understandable, because aqueous cleaning has become a tried-and-true process since the elimination of common vapor degreasing solvents due to suspected ozone depletion. But aqueous cleaning systems tend to have large footprints, require significant capital investment, guzzle electricity…
