In REXX (you didn't specify what language) you can use a combination of two functions: TRANSLATE (translate the colon to a space) and SPACE (to remove the resulting spaces):
/* REXX */
STR = TIME()
SAY STR
STR = SPACE(TRANSLATE(STR,'',':'),0)
SAY STR |

I wanted to say that but as I am late here is another possibility (less efficient I think):
/* REXX */
STR = TIME()
SAY STR
PARSE VAR STR HH ':' MM ':' SS
STR = HH || MM || SS
SAY STR |
