When Are High Frequency Ultrasonic Cleaners Needed?
November 20, 2019
High frequency ultrasonic cleaners are needed when the parts to be cleaned are delicate and easily damaged. Ultrasonic cleaning systems use the scrubbing action of microscopic cavitation bubbles to clean dirt and contaminants from the surfaces of parts. Low frequency systems generate large bubbles that deliver robust cleaning while high frequencies produce smaller bubbles and […]
Read MoreWhy Are Higher Ultrasonic Cleaning Frequencies Required?
May 10, 2019
Ultrasonic cleaners quickly remove contamination from part surfaces but using the right frequency is important. If the ultrasonic frequency of the cleaning system is too high, cleaning could be less effective and take longer. If it is too low, delicate parts could be damaged. Ultrasonic cleaning systems are extremely versatile and can excel at most […]

April 29, 2019
Ultrasonic generators produce the high-frequency electrical signal that powers the ultrasonic transducers immersed in the cleaning solution. The transducers are passive in the sense that they merely convert the electrical signal into sound waves. The generator handles all the control functions and is responsible for determining the frequencies used, the power output and the frequency […]
Read MoreTuning into the Right Frequency for Your Ultrasonic Cleaning Application
March 13, 2019
Ultrasonic cleaning is an excellent solution to many cleaning applications. The ultrasonic process removes contaminants from a variety of parts and works without strong, aggressive chemicals. It is compact, needing only a tank slightly larger than the parts to be cleaned, and it works more rapidly than other cleaning methods. Ultrasonic cleaning is completely safe […]
Read MoreSelecting an Ultrasonic Generator for Your Cleaning Application
February 13, 2019
While ultrasonic cleaning systems include generators, transducers and a cleaning tank, it is the ultrasonic generator that determines the main characteristics of the system. Therefore, choosing the properultrasonic generator is important for obtaining the specified performance. The generator has to have the right operating specifications and capabilities required for the cleaning application. The transducers and […]
Read MoreUsing Ultrasonic Cleaning Systems for Metal Finishing Applications
January 29, 2019
Metal finishing involves applying coatings or treatments to metal part surfaces, changing the metal part’s characteristics, hardening the surfaces or inhibiting corrosion. For the metal finishing process to be successful, the underlying metal surfaces have to be completely clean. If contaminants such as grease or oil are present, the metal coatings may not adhere properly […]
Read MoreWhat Provides the Best Results – Agitation or Ultrasonic Cleaning?
December 21, 2018
When you set out to find the best possible cleaning solution for your industrial application, you’re likely to come up against two common choices: agitation cleaning and ultrasonic cleaning. These methods work on a shared principle — the ultrasonic method involves cleaning action that is best characterized as a form of agitation. Nevertheless industrial ultrasonic […]
Read MoreUltrasonic Generators Provide Optimum Cleaning Results
June 27, 2018
Ultrasonic generators produce the high-frequency electric signal that is required for an ultrasonic cleaning system to operate effectively. The devices are powered by normal 60 KHz electric circuits and use electronics to generate ultrasonic frequencies between about 20 kHz and 1 MHz. Piezoelectric or magnetorestrictive transducers convert the electric signal to ultrasonic waves in the […]
Read MoreHow to Select the Right Type of Ultrasonic Cleaner
June 19, 2018
Industrial ultrasonic cleaners come in several different types with various configurations and characteristics that are determined by the cleaning application. The size of the cleaning system, its power, its frequency and its controls all influence the system’s cleaning capabilities. Selecting the right type of industrial ultrasonic cleaner is critical to obtaining the best cleaning performance […]
