Ever increasing demands on higher precision in manufacturing leads to higher demand on correct references and measurements. An increased focus on precision measurement has the potential of preventing serious errors in production and thus, reducing the costs of manufacturing.
But in order to generate cost savings, it is vital to use correct
references when conducting measurements. The reference
often used, is the surface plate.

In order to be able to use the surface plate as a reference surface whilst conducting measurements, it needs to be calibrated at regular intervals. Just as important though, is to keep dirt and grease off the surface plate. Otherwise impurities in the plate will
disrupt the results where the surface plate is used as a reference for measurements.

It was in order to live up to the high standards for purity required for the surface plates, that Planoclean™ was developed. The product swiftly and conveniently cleans the surface plate, thus ensuring
that impurities will not disrupt the measurements.

Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery AB conducted a product test. Planoclean™ was compared with two competing brands and solutions of soap and washing-up liquid.
The fluids were applied to a surface plate and thereafter wiped
off, after one, three and five minutes respectively with a high
absorbent paper. The paper was then photographed. The results
are presented in the table on the right.

Baty feels that Planoclean™ satisfies their high demand. “Our
customers expect the highest possible quality in everything that
we do. If we are to satisfy their demands for precision, it is
essential that the measurement results are correct because all production is based on them. Without a clean surface plate, the
measurement results will inevitably become disrupted since the plate is a reference plate for the measurements”.

A safety data sheet with more detailed information
on safety and environmental issues is supplied with
all orders of Planoclean™.
