Experts in factory automation are proving that "smart manufacturing" initiatives can provide safer environments for workers, along with driving higher factory output.Automated parts cleaning with vapor degreasing provides social distancing for workers as recommended by local and world health agencies. One operator runs the automated batch cleaning process from load-in, cleaning, rinsing, to drying and load-out…

Items that are used inside the mouth or other mucosal surfaces are considered “semi-critical”. Examples include bite blocks, plastic film positioning devices, and laryngeal airway devices. If items are reused for another patient, they must be heat sterilized or immersed in high level liquid disinfectant (gluteraldehyde, peracetic acid, etc.). Pathex is classified as an intermediate…

COVID-19 manufacturing disruptions are bringing vapor degreasing cleaning technology to the forefront as a social distancing tool. Vapor degreasers use environmentally responsible cleaning fluids with a cost-effective process that recycles fluids for 100s of hours. Vapor degreasing lets you batch clean parts quickly and efficiently with just one operator. Easily meet local and global health agency…
