GR Contracting Ltd
GR Contracting, a steel fabricator based in Wishaw, Motherwell, recently installed a new mechanical blast line and paint
facility.
Normally, pneumatic powered pumps would be supplied but on this occasion SprayPlant 2k suggested using the new Graco E60 electric pump. Whilst initial cost is higher than that of pneumatic pumps, there use means there is no requirement for a large compressor to run the pumps.
It is estimated that the E King offers some 70% savings in running costs over a pneumatic pump due to the inefficiency of compressed air and there is no need for costly annual compressor services.
Production manager Jim McDonald who made the decision to purchase the systems has been delighted with the
performance.
We were really impressed with the reduction of noise.
