Ultrasonics

Ultrasonic cleaning is an incredible innovation in the world of industrial cleaning. This technology allows for a more thorough cleaning of workpieces at a much faster rate than other methods of cleaning and deburring. Here’s how:


Ultrasonic cleansers use ultrasound waves to agitate a fluid. This fluid can be water or a cleaning solvent, depending on the workpiece being processed. The agitation creates microscopic air bubbles within the fluid, which then implode and help to remove microscopic contaminants from surfaces.


Ultrasonic cleaners provide many benefits, just one being their precision in decontaminating and degreasing parts. Ultrasonic cleaners have an average cleaning time between five and twenty minutes. They can also be used in a variety of industries and applications including:

  • Jewelry

  • Optical parts

  • Dental and surgical tools

  • Firearms

  • Automotive parts

  • Industrial machine parts

  • Electronic parts

Ultrasonic cleaning is an incredible innovation in the world of industrial cleaning. It uses high-frequency and high-intensity sound waves to remove contaminants from part surfaces that are immersed in an ultrasonic-activated fluid. 

 

The ultrasonic cleaning technology allows for more thorough cleaning of workpieces at a much faster rate than other methods of cleaning and deburring. 

 

Ultrasonic cleaners use ultrasound waves to agitate a fluid. This fluid can be water or a cleaning solvent, depending on the workpiece being processed. The agitation creates microscopic air bubbles within the fluid, which then implode and help to remove microscopic contaminants from surfaces.

 

Ultrasonic cleaners include the following basic components; cleaning tanks that are often made from stainless steel which holds the fluids and the parts to be cleaned, a generator that transforms the electrical energy into high ultrasonic frequency, and an ultrasonic transducer which converts the ultrasonic frequency to mechanical energy. They also consist of agitators, racks or baskets, water-based solvents, nozzles, etc. Many ultrasonic cleaners are also equipped with drying systems. 

 

Ultrasonic cleaners provide many benefits, just one being their precision in decontaminating and degreasing parts. They are also completely safe to use and environmentally friendly as they do not require the use of hazardous chemicals to dissolve most dirt & soils, and they require less manual labor. 

 

Another interesting benefit of ultrasonic cleaners is their ability to clean hard-to-reach areas like holes or cavities without causing any damage to the material. 

 

Also, ultrasonic cleaners have an average cleaning time of between five and twenty minutes which means they require less cleaning time compared to other types of cleaners, and they are capable of cleaning a single part or multiple parts at a time. 

 

Ultrasonic cleaners can be used in a variety of industries and applications including, jewellery, aerospace, optical parts, dental and surgical tools, firearms, automotive parts, industrial machine parts, electronic parts, medical and surgical instruments, carburetors, window blinds, electronic equipment, etc.
