In order to help determine what size vacuum impregnation system you need, there are a few questions you should answer first. The goal is to determine the total volumes and size of the parts that need to be impregnated and how that fits into your existing manufacturing schedule.

What are the properties of the parts that you want to impregnate? We need to determine the total envelope size in square inches.

  1. How many different part numbers are there?
  2. What is their size?
  3. What is their weight?
  4. Are they made of aluminum, iron or zinc?
  5. What is their machined state? (raw, partial or full)

 What is your manufacturing schedule?

  1. How many hours per day?
  2. How many days per week?
  3. How many days per year?

Once you have answered these questions, click here to download the Godfrey & Wing basket utilization tool which will help you determine the total number of parts estimated to be contained in the basket.
