Project Scope
Replace competitive, synthetic stamping lubricant & improve weld quality while reducing process costs.
Results
Process costs were lowered 12%, lubricant-related weld residue defects were eliminated, scrap & process costs were reduced.
IRMCO’s IMPACT
- Eliminated lube-related weld residue defects.
- Lowered production costs 12% over competitive lubricant.
- Provided cleaner regulatory (HMIS) lubricant profile to help achieve ISO 14001 goal.
- Lowered volume of applied lubricant to parts by additional 15% over competitor.
