How we operate our company can help your bottom line.

CASE STUDY ONE

Multiply that by how many pumps they are running and you come up with some significant savings.

But more importantly, we now have a customer who knows we aren’t in this business to make a quick sale. We value relationships that, like some of our customers, have lasted 35 years. We look at the best solution that will be the least costly over time.

We have quite a few case studies on our website that share how we have solved problems and saved customers not only money, but down time as well.

Our job is to keep you up and running


CASE STUDY TWO

R. A. Ross & Associates has nearly 200 years combined experience

How we saved an auto parts supplier hundreds of thousands of dollars

Chrome plating is a long, involved process and typically starts with degreasing, rinsing and cleaning, tedious polishing, then buffing, then acid dipping (etching), applying a metal catalyst then nickel and/or copper plating (many times calling for multiple layers) prior to the chrome plating itself. Typically the parts are rinsed in between each process.

As you can imagine, any particulate will show up as a defect and can’t be tolerated.

One auto parts manufacturer was encountering high costs and a severe problem with product reject rate. The rejects were due to particulate from their plating bath causing blemishes in the plating layer. The competitive bath filters were just not filtering their plating solutions properly and consistently.

We immediately involved one of our premium filter suppliers, Pentair Engineered Filtration. Pentair proved to be the perfect choice to develop the proper filter solution.

RESULTS

  • Hundreds of thousands of dollars were saved due to lower scrap rate.
  • The bottom line result was a competitive product with exceptional dirt holding capacities, precise filtration
    ratings, repeatable performance, low pressure drops, and high efficiencies. Put our experience and knowledge to work to¬ward solving your problems. Our solutions may save you a lot of time, money and headaches.
