Brief
Initially owning a Better Engineering (BE) turntable washer, the customer, specializing in surface preparation equipment, outgrew their existing setup due to increased volume. They sought a solution to meet higher throughput demands and enhance cleaning efficiency for parts used in floor grinding, removal, vacuum systems, and professional sawing equipment. This led them to purchase a BE conveyor parts washer, specifically designed to clean and dry parts thoroughly before painting, ensuring proper surface preparation.
Approach
Better Engineering seamlessly facilitated the transition from a batch washer to a continuous flow conveyor parts washer. Leveraging their existing relationship, the customer’s decision to invest in a third BE machine—a C-36-S5-S3-DH model—underscores their confidence and satisfaction with BE’s solutions. The new washer integrates advanced features such as a phosphate wash system, enhanced belt weight capacity capable of handling 100 lbs. per linear foot, and automated chemical regulation through a pH meter and chemical dosing pump. These enhancements optimize cleaning efficiency and chemical usage, meeting the customer’s rigorous standards for part preparation.
Conclusion
Installing the BE conveyor parts washer marked a significant advancement for the customer, supporting their increased production demands with streamlined operations and enhanced part cleaning capabilities. The customer achieved superior cleaning and drying results by upgrading to a conveyor system with recirculated wash modules (S5 and S3) and a heated dry module. This investment boosts throughput efficiency and underscores BE’s role as a trusted partner in their manufacturing processes.
