Another Success Story


Galion LLC was founded in 1954 and produces a variety of innovative screw machine parts for automotive and military customers. They came to Thierica Equipment Co. looking to improve quality, reduce costs, increase output, and reduce VOCs. Thierica, working with ITW Ransburg, found a solution that surpassed everyone’s expectations. We were able to apply, in one booth with an AeroBell 33, the same mil requirement as Galion was applying in two booths with HVLP guns. The results took Galion from 2000 parts per gallon to well in excess of 15,000 parts per gallon! The paint is not even visible as the projectiles turn color in front of the bell. Adding to this system’s amazing transfer efficiency is the added control provided by ITW Ransburg’s RCS II flow control and Thierica’s user friendly system controls. The results are greatly reduced paint costs, greatly reduced VOCs, improved product quality, and very nearly a 100% increase in production capability. This is the definition of a win/win situation. Call us to see how we can improve your paint line, your bottom line, and help make you a better neighbor at the same time. Making your company “green” can also make your financial statement “green” as well.
