Pre Treatment

The K Factor Filter has been successfully installed in automotive manufacturing and assembly operations where there was a need for highly efficient filtration of washing and pre-treatment of assemblies prior to painting.

Some of the challenges that are faced in this application are:

High costs of water and chemical usage
Inefficient filtration and clogging
High rate of defects from residual dirt and oil

Here are examples of a number of specific applications:

Deluge Process

Deluge is using a series of cannon-like nozzles to aggressively hit the manufactured vehicle with very high flow of water to remove the debris from the manufacturing process

The challenge

After the deluge washes the unwanted dirt from the vehicle this dirt is now in the tanks and must be removed by draining the tank or filtering.

The K factor Filter has been very successful at filtering out all the dirt.

Remove weld balls that float
Remove weld balls that sink
Remove sealer
Remove Kevlar
Remove sand and grit
Remove all the dirt with the k factor filter.

Installation

Spray stage 1

Stage 1 is after the deluge and this stage can be dip or spray and can also be heated or not heated. The key is to reduce the amount of dirt on the vehicle an very important to filter out this dirt.

The K factor Filter has many of these installations. The K Factor Flter is fully automatic and can be designed to retrofit into an existing system or a new system.
