Electronics Manufacturer Cuts Cleaner Consumption by 50% with Master STAGES™ CLEAN 2020
The customer in Malaysia is recognized as an industry-leading manufacturer of high-performing audio equipment, with superior acoustic performance compared to competitors. In addition, they have made groundbreaking advancements in voice recognition and control technology to improve ease of use and integration with daily activities.
THE CHALLENGE
The customer manufactures high volumes of stainless chip holder components for their various devices. Deep cleaning is essential prior to installation to prevent any contamination that could cause circuit failure or other electronic components to malfunction. After machining, the customer sends each chip holder through an advanced, four-stage ultrasonic cleaning process that includes chemical cleaners, heat, deionized water, and air drying.

Their previous cleaning solution left significant stamping oil residue on the chip holders, requiring repeated processing and manual cleaning, significantly reducing throughput, and increasing cleaner consumption. In addition, overlooked contamination resulted in higher rates of malfunction, reducing customer satisfaction.
THE SOLUTION
The customer switched to Master STAGES CLEAN 2020, a high-performance cleaning concentrate ideal for ultrasonic cleaning and immersion washing. The fluid is compatible with a wide array of materials, including stainless steel, as well as brass, copper, aluminum, and alloys. The product is known for cleaning so efficiently, that it can eliminate cleaning steps and reduce overall cleaning time.
THE RESULTS
After switching to CLEAN 2020, the customer completely eliminated contamination from the stainless steel chip holders, without the need to repeat any steps or manually clean parts. The product proved even more effective at a lower concentration than the previous solution, cleaning more efficiently at just 7%, compared to 14% concentration with the competitor's product.

The customer was able to cut consumption so drastically they went from using 20 drums of cleaning fluid per month to just 10. Additional savings came from lower energy consumption, as they were able to clean parts at just 45ºC compared to 70ºC.
THE NUMBERS
  • Cut fluid consumption by 50%, from 20 drums per month to 10
  • Able to run machines at much lower concentration of 7% and achieve better results
  • Reduced cleaner bath temperature by 25ºC
