Project #1: Wash Temperature Reduction Worked with chemical suppliers to specify the correct low

temperature chemical for our process while maintaining required 99.7% first pass quality rate.

Goal: Reduced operating temperature from 140°F to 110°F

Actual: Achieved 70°F. Bath warmed by heat of parts from our spotwelding process!

This reduced energy usage in the process by 75-80%.
