It typically takes about an hour to scrub them down, making it a time-consuming process. Workers often find themselves exposed to harmful fumes and have direct contact with degreasers, raising safety concerns.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On top of that, the costs can really add up. Using 1.5 pails of degreaser each week means that, over a month, that totals 6 pails. This significant chemical usage not only impacts the budget but also creates challenges when it comes to hazardous waste disposal. Unfortunately, much of this waste often ends up in drains and wastewater systems during the cleaning process, leading to environmental concerns.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>The Results<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We sought a solution that would not only speed up the cleaning process but also make it safer for our workers and reduce environmental impact. We used <\/span><b>NCH <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nchasia.com\/en-sg\/solution\/torrent-500\/\">Torrent 500<\/a><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and the outcome has been nothing short of impressive:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Quicker and Safer Cleaning Process:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Cleaning by Torrent has significantly reduced cleaning time. It\u2019s true that a unit can thoroughly degrease a part in two minutes! Having the Torrent has cut down on the time it takes to clean gearboxes.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Decreased Monthly Chemical Usage:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> With smarter cleaning methods, we&#8217;ve drastically reduced our reliance on traditional degreasers, minimizing our monthly chemical consumption.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Less Hazardous Waste Generated:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The Torrent system is a water-based parts cleaning unit. Our use of it has marked a decrease in hazardous waste, contributing to better environmental practices.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Total Savings:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Over a four-year contract with Torrent, we&#8217;ve realized substantial cost savings, highlighting the financial benefits of improving our cleaning processes.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In conclusion, by addressing the challenges of gearbox cleaning, we\u2019ve not only enhanced efficiency but also fostered a safer workplace and a healthier environment. It&#8217;s a win-win situation that shows how thoughtful changes can lead to significant improvements.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For more information on this, contact us at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nchasia.com\/en-sg\/solution\/parts-cleaning\/\">https:\/\/www.nchasia.com\/en-sg\/solution\/parts-cleaning\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cleaning mechanical parts, especially gearboxes, is no small task.
