Free trial of sedimentor technology | |||
» BOHLE IS OFFERING A free 60 to 90-day trial of its sedimentor , a machine that represents a practical and highly effective way of achieving more sustainable manufacturing processes by eliminating wastewater , extending tool life and reducing energy costs .
Suitable for a wide range of grinding , drilling and sawing glass equipment , sedimentors use a sophisticated and automated multi-stage process to remove contaminants from coolants and water .
Dave Broxton , Managing Director , Bohle , commented : “ Using clean water , especially when it is combined with coolant , means that glass processors can improve the performance of their machinery by as much as 20 % and the
|
service life of tools by up to 30 %.
“ However , there is a cost associated to keeping water clean . If you ’ re using 400 litres in a weekly cleaning cycle , that adds up to around 20,000-litres a year . You ’ re paying to use that water , and also to dispose of it .
“ A Bohle sedimentor can filter glass particles as small as 5 microns , which is 14 times smaller than the width
|
of a human hair , and it uses minimal energy to do so ,” he continued . “ By including a sedimentor in a production line , glass processors are not only better equipped to eliminate waste water , they can recycle and reuse valuable water over and over again .”
In addition to recycling water , reducing energy usage and introducing greater manufacturing efficiencies , sedimentors can also save processors
|
thousands of pounds a year in downtime by reducing the maintenance requirement to clean machinery and water tanks or replace tooling – increasing manufacturing capacity by as much as 15 %.
“ For glass companies that are looking to operate more sustainably , a sedimentor is a very attractive solution ,” concluded Dave . “ It ’ s also a very cost-effective investment .
“ Processors that take advantage of our free trial offer , which is subject to availability , will see the benefits even after a relatively short period of time , but our modelling shows that this is a machine that can pay for itself in as little as 12 months .”
