A Process-Driven Approach To Long-Lasting Cleaning Performance
The Challenge
An OEM supplier in the defense and aerospace sector was under pressure to refine its in-process cleaning of aluminum engine components. Their parts accumulated heavy oils, Zyglo penetrants, and waxes across multiple manufacturing stages, and poor cleaning could compromise both performance and compliance.
The cleaning process needed to keep pace with fast-moving production cycles while maintaining rigorous aerospace quality standards. Any inefficiencies would impact downstream assembly and part integrity.
They turned to Brulin's team of process specialists to design a cleaning system that balanced aggressive contaminant removal with process compatibility and material safety, without introducing delays or rework.
The Solution
Our team quickly got to work designing a precision cleaning process the leveraged AquaVantage® 3887 GD, an aerospace-proven detergent, tailored to the supplier's workflow and engineered to be effective with their substrates and soils. By combining the right chemistry with field-tested process design, Brulin delivered a system-ready solution that matched the speed and precision of aerospace manufacturing.
System Integration
We aligned the newly-designed process with the cleaning equipment already in use by the customer, eliminating the need for new capital investment.
Balanced Cleaning Power
Our team recommended a 5 - 10% detergent concentration, optimized through on-site adjustments to handle variable soil loads without risking pitting or surface damage.
New pH Maintenance
Realized Success
The supplier achieved reliable contaminant removal with zero compromise to part quality. The redesigned precision cleaning process enabled the supplier to clean faster, safer, and with higher confidence.
