Case Studies - Resin Cleaner

Stockcode:

This is a pedestal free standing resin cleaner with optional centrifuge for cleaning and removal of resin from brushes and roller brushes. We supplied a batch of 30, as seen fully packaged in the background of the main photo sets with proposed forward production of similar sized batches.

Designed in liaison with the end customer, we produced a prototype for approval, integrated design changes and moved onto a preproduction run of 30. Design was carried out using solid works with all drawing and models being produced by Paramount. The system is a solvent tank for cleaning brushes manually by dipping and immersing into the 20 litre capacity tank with an optional centrifuge fitting for pneumatic powered spinning of brushes to remove any residual solvent.

All components were made from stainless steel 304 because of the caustic nature of the process with the bulk of sheet metal being 1.5mm thick.

The work was carried out on the CNC punch followed by CNC folding operations and tig welding where required. As with many projects of this nature there was a lot of assembly of fixtures and fittings such as hinges, pneumatics, lid stays, foot pedals, and labelling etc. The internal mesh tray was fully punched in-house and folded accordingly. The centrifuge housing was sheet rolled and seam welded. 

Each tank was leak tested by filling with water and all seam welds were treated with a stain removal process to remove weld discoloration.

The design to preproduction stage took around 6 months as tanks were sent out for approval and testing/sampling in the industry.

About us

Founded in 1948, Paramount Precision Engineering Ltd boasts a storied history in the defence and aerospace sectors, having been involved in the manufacturing of component parts for numerous major military projects.

We maintain strong collaborations with the aerospace and defence industries while also providing an extensive array of subcontracting precision services. The business was acquired by the current owner, Chris Bowman, in 1984, and under his guidance, there has been a continuous commitment to reinvestment in the company's growth and development.

One of our notable strengths lies in our ability to provide a comprehensive manufacturing service, thanks to our expertise in fine limit CNC sheet metal work and CNC machining. We are proficient in handling a range of project requirements, including 3D Solid Modelling for larger blue-chip clients, while also being well-versed in accommodating 2D CAD files and traditional paper drawings

CNC Milling
We utilise a total of five advanced, fully-networked Doosan DNM vertical machining centres, complemented by two CNC Bridgeport Series II mills and a conventional Ajax universal mill.

CNC Turning
We provide multi-axis turning with powered tooling based on solid models, electronic files, or traditional paper drawings.

CNC Sheet Metal Work
We provide CNC punching and forming services based on solid models, electronic files, or traditional paper drawings.

CNC Forming
CNC forming is executed using an advanced 7-axis, 80-ton Amada press brake with a length of 2570mm.

CNC Punching
We run a cutting-edge Amada turret punch press with a size of 1270mm x 2500mm, capable of processing 3.2mm thick sheets and achieving a punch rate of 480 hits per minute.

Sheet Metal Fabrication
Our resources encompass TIG, MIG, and 150KAV spot welding capabilities, alongside oxy-acetylene welding capacity, all supported by a specialised 1500mm x 750mm welding table with comprehensive extraction. Additionally, we have a dedicated 2400mm x 1200mm fabrication table in our facilities.

CAD Design
Solidworks

Assembly
We have a spacious assembly zone equipped with an extensive array of bench-top resources and a production line layout suitable for mechanical fixture assembly, as well as the assembly of electrical and electronic components. Our assembly services extend to tasks like labelling, numbering, and overseeing outsourced services like metal finishing.

Our excellent track record in delivering top-notch products, coupled with our ISO 9001 quality certification maintained since 1998, has solidified our standing in the Defence industry as a prominent subcontractor.

Latest Reviews

Paramount Precision Engineering Ltd

I went to visit Dave Blakley at Paramount with a few rough drawings and ideas. He was quick to point out and rectify several small errors in my design and then together with his team went on to produce a small batch of meticulously engineered parts for me. A first class outfit that exceeded my expectations.
