As a leading supplier of
custom-engineered high
performance transmissions,
XTRAC operates advanced
manufacturing practices and
its processes are always under
review to improve efficiency
and ensure compliance with
international standards.

Previously, machined
components going through
the various stages of
manufacture were coated in a
heavy, oil-based corrosion
preventative, which had to be
removed and re-applied after
each operation.Messy and
time-consuming to remove, it
also presented H&S concerns.

XTRAC introduced VCI
bag technology along with an
aqueous-based detergent that
has a rust inhibitor additive
that allows components to be
worked on without being
removed, saving an average of
200min per component.

A specially adapted blowerpowered
JetBlack from ACI
delivers a high volume of
clean, filtered air at low
pressure which provides
rapid, efficient drying with no
danger to the operative.
