Franklin Precision Castings announces the acquisition of a state-of-the-art 20,000 PSI water blasting system, combining both automatic and manual operations for ceramic shell removal. This cutting-edge technology from Triplex Systems, Inc. of Minnesota, marks a continued advancement in its commitment to quality, efficiency, and workplace safety.
“The Triplex water blasting system has reduced our cycle times by 50 to 75%, a remarkable improvement,” said Mark Johnson, Cleaning Room Supervisor at Franklin Precision Castings.
The new high-pressure water jet blasting machine allows for safer and more efficient ceramic shell removal, improved consistency in part processing and shorter cycle time – getting parts even faster to our customers. In addition to boosting efficiency, the system reduces water consumption by 50%. The built-in drag conveyor unloads broken ceramic shell into a hopper, mitigating the risk of back injuries and enhancing overall safety in our operations.
The Model TRX-1250CAM combines the power of both automatic and manual cleaning cycles within a single cabinet. This innovative technology allows operators to seamlessly switch between modes via a user-friendly touch screen interface, all powered by a single high-pressure pump unit.
This investment reinforces Franklin Precision Castings’ ongoing commitment to continuous improvement.
