There are several kinds of parts washers that cater to the automotive industry. One thing to remember is that there are a lot of rules for parts washing and using parts washers in Los Angeles and throughout California. Thankfully you have traditional detergent base parts Continue reading →
Cleaning your industrial parts in water is one the most preferred ways to clean and prepare parts in a manufacturing setting. Water? Sounds simple, right? But can these parts washers cut through all that grease and grime? Yes! Continue reading →
The benefits of total immersion parts washing are many. But the biggest benefits is little to no parts washer solvents or blasting shot over spray and immersion parts washing allows for the parts cleaner solvent to make contact with the entire part, especially small holes and divots, as well as in between stacked compound parts.

Yes CTI’s many service plans can help with hazardous parts washer solvents. While aqueous based cleaners are nonhazardous and use nonhazardous part washer solvents to clean parts and machinery, the process of washing dirty parts could cause the cleaning solution to become contaminated with solvents or metal-bearing oils and greases at levels that may make the waste solution hazardous. In California many of the used part washer solvents and aqueous cleaners can be deemed contaminated especially when cutting oils and machining fluids are involved. The parts cleaner solvents cannot be put into the sanitation system. Continue reading →

Yes, CT-Industries offers several oil seperator systems that can used in many commercial and residential situations. When it is necessary to remove oil from water, coalescing plate module type oil-water separators are often a good solution because they remove the oil by using only gravity for motive force. In some cases the oil that is separated is often recyclable. No pumping or other utility costs are usually required (although pumped systems can be designed if this is required by the site conditions). Oil separator systems can often be located underground, thus minimizing waste of valuable area on the surface. Continue reading →
The aqueous parts washer gives you all the cleaning power of a solvent parts washer but uses cleaning solutions that are safe and biodegradable. Environmentally friendly cleaning detergents that AQMD and Aerospace approved cleaners are becoming the preferred method of parts cleaning in most industries.
Immersion cleaning exposes all surfaces of the part, including blind holes and small crevices, to the cleaning solution. Simply put, immersions cleaners make more contact with parts than abrasive blasting equipment and spray washers.
