Amhil
Enterprises was experiencing extensive downtime
using a liquid purging agent to purge 10 lines
of extrusion equipment three times every month.
By switching to Dyna-Purge, a thermoplastic
purging compound, the company cut downtime and
improved cleaning performance.
- Lower
Purging Costs - average cost to purge
decreased 25%
-
Less Downtime - purging now takes
only 30 minutes instead of 1 hour
-
Superior Cleaning - more thorough
cleaning reported
-
Ready to Use - no mixing, soaking
or waiting necessary
 |
Under
its continuous improvement program, Amhil
Enterprises switched to Dyna-Purge to
cut downtime and lower purging costs.
Details are available in a published Case
Study.
