The Hidden Obstacle to CNC Excellence:

Imagine a world where your CNC machines run like well-oiled precision instruments, where downtime is a rarity rather than the norm. For every Modern Machine Shop Leader, this dream can become a reality. In this article, we'll delve into a pain point that has plagued machining companies for years and reveal a game-changing solution. If you're seeking ways to optimize your shop floor operations and boost profitability, read on.

The Process of Use of Easymech QC50 and Its Applications:

Easymech QC50 is a versatile quick machine cleaning concentrate designed to streamline CNC machine maintenance. The process of using QC50 is straightforward:

Application: QC50 can be applied to various types of machines, including both CNC and conventional milling, turning, grinding and other machines such as Presses, Injection Moulding machines or any machine consuming Straight oils or water soluble Coolants in the process. It is suitable for cleaning various surfaces including painted and powder coated parts and does not cause discoloration, flaking, fading of the paint etc.

QC50's versatility extends beyond CNC machines; it can also be used on workbenches, tools, for removal of corrosion on machined / ground components,

To remove dirt / dust / grease stains off old used machinery and restore a splendid look to the machine shop.

Dilution: Dilute QC50 with water as per the recommended ratios specified in the product instructions. The concentration can be adjusted based on the cleaning intensity required.

Application Method: Simply follow the 3 steps:3S as shown in the SOP video. Spray – Scrub and Swab. Process can be repeated for heavier stains.

Summarizing the Benefits:

1. Efficiency Redefined: Easymech QC50 optimizes CNC machine cleaning process, reducing cleaning time from 30 minutes to just 10 minutes per machine. This translates to significantly reduced downtime and increased machine availability, boosting overall shop floor efficiency.

2. Minimal Residue: QC50's residue-free cleaning minimizes the risk of contamination, ensuring that CNC machines run at their optimal capacity without disruptions caused by residual contaminants.

3. Dissolves safely with Coolant : Safe for machine & Safe for operator.

Top 3 Reasons to Include QC50 in 5S Implementation:

Streamlined Cleaning Processes: QC50 simplifies and accelerates CNC machine cleaning, aligning with the "Shine" pillar of 5S. It fosters a clean and organized workspace, contributing to a more efficient and productive shop floor.

Reduced Downtime: With QC50's rapid cleaning action, "Set in Order" and "Standardize" become more manageable as machines spend less time idle during cleaning, reducing downtime to a minimum.

Enhanced Equipment Longevity: QC50's ability to extend tool life and maintain machine precision supports the "Sustain" aspect of 5S, ensuring that the gains in efficiency and cleanliness are maintained over time
