With new Solvent Regulations coming into force soon, Layton Technologies has developed a range of fixed-price budget cleaning options to fit virtually every parts cleaning and degreasing application.

With new Solvent Regulations coming into force later this year, UK-based component cleaning equipment manufacturer, Layton Technologies has developed a range of fixed-price budget cleaning options to fit virtually every parts cleaning and degreasing application. Many companies using trichloroethylene and similar solvents will be looking to invest in compliant enclosed technology. Layton can offer a high capacity system that includes an hermetically sealed chamber, on-board solvent reprocessing and vacuum drying for a fixed cost of GBP40k.

This system can safely use tric, perc or a range of hydrocarbon solvents in a near-zero emissions and environmentally compliant system.

For some specialised solvent applications such as Npb, which may not be fully suited to the distillation process in fully sealed systems, Layton has developed its enclosed Bluestone solvent system which incorporates internal handling for a budget cost of GBP35k.

Where companies can move to aqueous cleaning, Layton say that they can provide objective advice on the best process to consider and offer a multi-stage clean, rinse and drying system, complete with ultrasonics and an automated integral handling system for a budget price of GBP30k.

If aqueous cleaning is required for complex parts that need high performance drying, for GBP35k Layton has a compact aqueous system that offers ultrasonic, spray and immersion cleaning with highly efficient warm air and vacuum drying.

Layton Sales Manager Chris O'Rourke explained that they had brought together this budget range of component cleaning systems in response to the need for companies to up-date their parts cleaning processes to comply with impending regulations.

'We are trying to simplify things for customers who need to find a viable and affordable replacement system before SER becomes a requirement in October.

We also offer a range of affordable purchase options including lease-purchase'.

For companies who want to out-source their component cleaning, Layton have also opened a contract cleaning service offering an efficient alternative to in-house parts cleaning.
