Customer

A large manufacturer (established in the 1960s) of small complex brass components.

Problem

The customer is manufacturing delicate brass components with blind holes in mass production.
15 lakh components are produced on a daily basis.
Due to the sheer volumes being produced, it is impossible to have any manual cleaning technique for the components.
