“The CLAM® . . . We're working cleaner and smarter to provide a
safe and clean environment.
Recently, after months of researching and trying a manufacturer’s sample,
we have receive a new hot water degreasing tank that was custom outfitted for
our production needs. The new machine, “The CLAM®,” is made by
G.M.F. Industries in Lakeland, Florida. It uses biodegradable detergent and ordinary
water heated under a dual thermostat control to approximately 180°. The solution
is pumped from the tank through a filter at a rate of 120 gallons per minute
and into the system manifold at a pressure of 45 PSI.
By providing complete containment of wastes and eliminating the need for toxic
cleaning solutions. The CLAM® makes it easy to clean parts in a way that
protects our environment. Parts can be easily loaded and cleaned in automated
cycles, as compared to the manual processes that were used previously.
