CHALLENGES
A major automotive producer was using a cleaner/corrosion preventive on the finish case washers. The solution:
- Did not give adequate rust prevention
- Left behind a sticky residue
- Had limited biostability
This producer was looking for a product that:
- Would improve corrosion protection
- Not leave a sticky residue
- Have improved biostability
- Increase sump life
Quaker introduced QUAKERCLEAN® 624 MPC liquid alkaline type cleaner/corrosion preventive and the product resulted in:
- Total chemical cost reduction
- Reduction in the scrap/rework rate for the year
THE SOLUTION
Changing to the QUAKERCLEAN® 624 MPC resulted in a total chemical cost savings of $11,651 for one finish case washer per year. In addition to the chemical cost savings, the scrap/rework rate dropped from an average 21.8 per day to 13.1 per day, a 40% reduction.
