CASE STUDY 3
Improve Lead Casting Productivity by 20%
with Intercad TF Spray.
Challenge
Acumuladores Moura, a leading battery manufacturer, faced challenges in lead casting molds for terminal production. Their existing silicone spray caused mold lock-ups, product defects, and required frequent reapplications.
Results
- Reduced spray consumption by 288 cans annually.
- Increased productivity by 20%.
- Improved product quality with defect-free finishes.
Solution
Intercad TF Spray, a dry film PTFE-based release agent, was introduced. It eliminated mold lock-ups, improved surface quality, and reduced spray consumption.
Impact
Reduce environmental impact whilst increasing productivity and quality.
