The Science Behind Ultrasonic Cleaning

Ultrasonic cleaning is an efficient and effective technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to remove contaminants from objects. Understanding the science behind how the technology works will enable you to achieve optimal results in various commercial and industrial settings. The Basics of Ultrasonic Cleaning Ultrasonic cleaning uses high-frequency sound waves (typically between 20-200kHz) to effectively […]

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 […]

Ultrasonic cleaning systems are made up of an ultrasonic generator to produce the electric ultrasonic frequency, a transducer to convert the electric signal to sound waves and a tank to hold the cleaning solution. The choice of the transducer and cleaning tank influences how the ultrasonic cleaning system can be used and what parts can […]

While selecting the right operating frequency for industrial ultrasonic cleaners is important, the equipment size and options are critical for obtaining excellent cleaning performance. Depending on the cleaning application, either a flexible system or a system designed for one particular task may be best, and selecting the corresponding options will influence how the system can […]

Ultrasonic cleaning systems are made up of an ultrasonic generator, one or more transducers and a tank to hold the cleaning solution. The generators and transducers produce the ultrasonic waves responsible for cleaning action, but the ultrasonic tank has to be suitable for the cleaning application as well. In a well-designed system, the ultrasonic frequency, […]

Ultrasonic cleaning systems can remove a wide variety of contaminants from the surfaces of parts to be cleaned, but specific material types can be removed more quickly and completely with additional measures. Oil-based dirt, grease and organic compounds can take the form of hard deposits that are difficult for the cavitation bubbles of the ultrasonic […]

Ultrasonic cleaning tanks hold the solution that cleans parts and components through the action of cavitation bubbles generated by the ultrasonic sound waves. An ultrasonic generator produces the electric signal and transducers mounted on the tanks convert the signal into waves in the cleaning liquid. The cavitation bubbles deliver a strong scrubbing action throughout the […]

Industrial cleaning systems that utilize ultrasonic technology can clean a variety of objects and parts without aggressive chemicals or rough scrubbing. Ultrasonic tanks hold the cleaning solution and the part to be cleaned. The tank mounted transducers generate the ultrasonic signal. Ultrasonic cleaning is especially suitable for objects such as ceramics, glass, optical devices, medical devices and […]
