Project Number 1
Summary:
Based on client request four products were selected to clean three contaminants. All four cleaners were successful in removing over 90% of the cutting fluid. All cleaners except Vertec BioGold removed over 99% of the quench oil. Only Citrikleen was successful in removing over 85% of the grease during the 5 minute cleaning. During both trials, the effectiveness of the Vertec Bio Gold 2 was observed visually to be effective in removing the quench oil from the coupons. Despite these observations, the calculated efficiencies yielded different results. From the results of this trial, it appears that a more aggressive rinsing methodology will help to eliminate the cleaner residue from the surface of the parts.Test Objective:
Comparison of client products with other vendor products| Trial Number | Date Run | Purpose | Success Rating |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 09/03/2002 | To evaluate client products for grease, cutting oil and quench oil cleaning | A follow up test, usually based on company input. |
| 1 | 09/04/2002 | To evaluate alternative rinsing methods. | A follow up test, usually based on company input. |
| 2 | 09/23/2002 | To evaluate and compare client products for various coating removal with other vendor products | A follow up test, usually based on company input. |
| 3 | 10/01/2002 | To perform follow up evaluation to determine source of poor performance | A follow up test, usually based on company input. |
| 4 | 10/02/2002 | To evaluate client supplied and requested cleaners for ink removal | A follow up test, usually based on company input. |
