Summary

A critical glue agitator vessel was affecting productivity for a silicone manufacturing facility in France. The installed mechanical seal was had a life of between 4 and 8 weeks, and replacement required the agitator to be off-line for 7 days. This situation was costing the company thousands of Euros in lost production.

May case study of the month shows how AESSEAL helped a customer facing a week’s lost production every couple of months because excessive radial movement in a mixer paddle shaft was causing seal failure.
