We have been extremely pleased with a variety of products TPC has brought to the table. TPC’s engineers provided us with a custom-designed solution that was extremely flexible and which has held up incredibly well over time. Since the custom assembly was installed a few years ago, the cable has shown no sign of damage, we’ve had no breakdowns, and we’ve made zero repairs.

Case Study: Tools Manufacturer Replaces Cable on Flute Machine

extreme-temp-chemicals-case-study-3184

CUSTOMER PROBLEM:

A manufacturer of cutting tools and hand-held power tool accessories in Derby Line, Vermont was replacing their cable every 6 months on a flute machine used to make drill bits. The cable was routinely eaten away by hot cutting oils, cut up by metal shards, and burned up from high heat generated by friction.

TPC SOLUTION:

The TPC sales representative suggested Chem-Gard® 150 Unshielded Multi-Conductor Cable. The fluoropolymer jacket is ideal for harsh chemical environments in that it is resistant to oils, acids, solvents, and chemicals while also providing excellent defense against cutting and abrasion. The jacket is also designed for continuous temperature environments up to 150°C (302°F). Fluoropolymer conductor insulation delivers an additional layer of protection against cutting, abrasion, and chemicals.

CUSTOMER’S RESULT:

After using TPC’s product for 24 months and comparing it to the commodity product for the same period of time, the customer confirmed its value. Previously, failures added up to $3,800 in parts and labor plus the additional cost of downtime, which was 40 hours. Now, with Chem-Gard® 150 Unshielded Multi-Conductor Cable in use, the customer is replacing cable just once every 2 years, saving $3,129 in parts and labor while increasing production by 36 hours.
