EnviroRinse™ Range
EnviroRinse™ 201 is a water-based, low foaming rinse aid offering corrosion resisting properties on assembly parts for up to 2 years. The purpose of this data report is to evaluate EnviroRinseTM201 (ER201) performance in an aqueous parts washer. The results and associated observations are detailed to show the effectiveness of the product. It was found that ER201 was stable over the 4-week period with minimal foaming and no alarms relating to the rinse tank occurred on the machine. The data followed a trend, the conductivity of the solutions increased throughout the trial however this was down to the top up of water into the tank. The dosage pump was set up to inject 20ml of ER201 every rinse cycle into the rinse tank, this maintained the concentration with no manual additions needed throughout the 4-week period. In no circumstance did any personnel need to intervene with the rinse tank and this ran fully automated by the machine. A full inspection regime was carried out on the parts that had been processed through the ER201 with positive feedback of the appearance of the components from a Hydraulics assembly manufacturer’s personnel. Lake Engineering Solutions provided a full SOP and training upon implementation of ER201 on the machine. This promoted a good practice for handling parts, and monitoring the solution now is minimal as it will be done in an automated process with the machine’s water top up and dosage pump. Full data has been given to underpin the effectiveness of the automated dosage system and Lab data to support EnviroRinse ™ using industry ASTM Standards (ASTM D4627-92: Iron Chip Corrosion for Water-Dilutable Metalworking Fluids and ASTM D1748-10: Rust Protection by Metal Preservatives in the Humidity Cabinet).

Unmasking Corrosion’s Impact: Insights from a Corrosion Engineer Safeguarding Manufacturing with Innovative Solutions
In the domain of factories and machinery, an invisible opponent emerges: CORROSION

Have you ever received a corroded component in your work area and immediately blamed the previous process or person for this issue?
It is not always clear where corrosion occurs especially where there are complex and often international supply chains. Therefore, it is essential to look at the whole process from start to finish.
