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 […]

Flat panel glass is used in many flat screen products and its processing relies on a wide variety of manufacturing steps that apply coatings, add semiconductor functions and carry out special treatments of the glass. The manufacturing steps often leave process residues and the glass itself can pick up dirt and contaminants from the shop […]

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 […]

From delicate parts to large, rust-covered machine components, industrial cleaning needs can be varied and challenging. The best makers of ultrasonic parts cleaners offer both standard and customized solutions, with components that can be mixed and matched to any specific needs. Choosing a system that is configured or customized to meet the needs of the […]

Industrial ultrasonic cleaners rely on the mechanical scrubbing action of microscopic cavitation bubbles to remove contaminants from the surfaces of parts to be cleaned. As a result, the systems don’t need to use harsh chemicals to soften and dissolve surface contaminants. Instead, ultrasonic cleaners work quickly to clean contaminants from all kinds of surfaces and […]

Ultrasonic cleaners provide quick and complete cleaning for parts to be plated or coated, saving time and ensuring superior adhesion. The ultrasonic cleaning process leaves bare surfaces free from contaminants, even in hard-to-reach places such as interior cavities and holes. The use of ultrasonic parts cleaners is completely safe and doesn’t require chemicals to soften or […]

Traditional industrial cleaning methods involve the use of toxic chemicals to dissolve surface contaminants on the parts to be cleaned and mechanical scrubbing to remove residues. The cost of such chemicals continues to rise as does the cost of handling them safely and the cost of waste disposal. The best alternative to toxic chemical-based cleaning […]

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 transducers convert the high-frequency electric signal of an ultrasonic cleaning system to sound waves in the cleaning solution. These systems are made up of an ultrasonic generator, a transducer and a tank to hold the cleaning solution. Low frequencies from 20 kHz to about 160 kHz are used for cleaning heavy, hard to […]

While standard ultrasonic cleaning solutions are often adequate for many applications, some cleaning tasks can be completed more quickly or more effectively by using custom-built industrial ultrasonic cleaners. Kaijo’s extensive experience with ultrasonic cleaning technology allows the company to analyze cleaning requirements and make the adjustments needed to standard equipment for superior cleaning performance. With […]
