Auto Manufacturers Achieve Cost Effective Cleaning with Ultrasonic Cleaners

Because automotive parts may be contaminated by the manufacturing process, automotive manufacturers have to clean the parts they produce before using them, processing them further or sending them out to customers. Cleaning automotive parts with complex shapes or hard-to-access cavities can be expensive and time-consuming. Fragile parts and parts with delicate coatings may be damaged […]

Small engine parts that are new, refurbished or repaired may be contaminated with engine deposits, shop dirt or material from the manufacturing process. These small parts are hard to clean with traditional methods because they often have complicated shapes and may be contaminated with hard-to-remove oil, grease or carbon deposits. Ultrasonic cleaners designed for use […]

When racing car engines need to be maintained to provide peak performance, automotive ultrasonic cleaners deliver superior cleaning performance for engine parts prior to re-installation. For auto racing, components such as pistons, engine heads, differentials, transmissions and coolers have to be kept free of carbon deposits, solidified grease and other contaminants. Engines and drive trains work better […]

The automotive industry has varied cleaning requirements for automotive parts and re-built components. Cleaning applications may range from rugged engine parts with hard steel surfaces to more delicate parts with special finishes or coatings. Automotive ultrasonic cleaners can be custom-designed to handle such special applications, and customized systems can often deliver improved cleaning performance. Kaijo has extensive […]

Automotive parts generally have hard surfaces and are comparatively rugged. This allows ultrasonic cleaning to take place at the lower end of the ultrasonic frequency spectrum where the powerful cleaning action might damage more fragile components. Within that lower range, there is still room for optimizing cleaning performance by exactly matching the ultrasonic frequency to […]

Aluminum engine parts may require routine cleaning or the removal of contaminants prior to re-building. Because aluminum is softer than steel, scrubbing or scraping to remove tough deposits can damage the aluminum surface. Soaking in strong solvents may soften deposits and remove some contaminants but manual or mechanical cleaning is usually required to clean residues. […]

Most automotive parts can be cleaned quickly and completely with an ultrasonic cleaning system. The microscopic bubbles created in the cleaning solution by the ultrasonic waves deliver a powerful scrubbing action that removes contaminants from part surfaces and dislodges residues. Top parts suitable for ultrasonic cleaning include cylinder heads, fuel injectors, carburetors, brake cylinders and […]

Ultrasonic cleaning can remove impurities and contaminants from the surfaces of machined components, sheet metal parts and other items assembled to make up finished automotive products. Such cleaning is required because many parts come out of the manufacturing process with oil, grease or shop dirt on their surfaces. Traditional cleaning methods use harsh chemicals, extensive […]
