ZESTRON Studies Cleaning Costs
July 18, 2007 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
MANASSAS, Va. ZESTRON compiled data from medium- to high-throughput in-line cleaning processes to determine "true" costs of assembly cleaning with commonly used cleaning agents. The resulting study can be used to optimize an assembler's processes, reducing costs and improving final products, according to the company.
To analyze and compare cleaning processes, users should consider pure cost elements cleaning and rinsing agent usage and indirect costs disposal, power, compatibility steps, equipment maintenance, etc. rather than simply per-gallon prices for cleaning products. The study authors argue that averaging cost data of various cleaning systems generates an accurate average that reflects actual cost values. The study describes cleaning costs with more than five factors in consideration.
