Ultrasonic Cleaning Solutions for Food & Drug Industry
Food & Drug — Ultrasonic Cleaning Cuts Costs, Saves Time and Ensures Safety
Cleanliness is a top priority in any food or drug processing operation. For years, meeting cleanliness guidelines has required hours of hand-scrubbing and inspection by employees -- a significant but unavoidable burden in terms of cost and time.
Omegasonics’ ultrasonic cleaners relieve this burden, dramatically streamlining the cleaning of parts and equipment used to process or dispense food, supplements and pharmaceuticals. Ultrasonic washing removes dirt, scale, minerals, grime, oils and other residues from virtually any surface using completely safe solutions of citric acid and/or water. Our systems not only clean faster, they eliminate manual processes for significant cost savings.
“We used to have 3 people scrubbing for 45 minutes to clean one unit. One person can now place the entire unit in an ultrasonic machine, and in about 10 minutes it's done.”
-- Stephen Pratt, Manufacturing Engineer, Wilbur Curtis (a manufacturer of coffee and tea brewing machines)
Pepsi-Cola, Miller Brewing and Natural Alternatives are among the major corporations that depend on Omegasonics cleaners for these bottom-line benefits:
- Cleaning without harsh acids or alcohols — our ultrasonic washers use safer water based cleaning soaps
- Time and labor savings — cleaning time is often reduced from hours to minutes
- Our cleaning baths reach holes and crevices that are difficult to clean by hand
- Improved productivity — employees can be diverted to other tasks
- Portable equipment that is easy to install and use — no training is required
A Wide Range of Applications
Omegasonics’ ultrasonic cleaners are used to improve cleaning results, save time and reduce costs in a variety of food and drug environments.
A well-known vitamin manufacturer is particularly impressed that its Omegasonics cleaner uses only water to clean its vitamin processing equipment. In addition to reducing cleaning time and costs, no FDA approval is needed for the cleaning solution.
Soft drink manufacturers use ultrasonic cleaners to clean filler valves, which can become clogged with syrup residue. The ultrasonic method saves considerable time and effort and is safer for employees, since it uses non-toxic, water-based solutions. Ultrasonic has also been used to thoroughly clean bottles before refilling.
Ultrasonic cleaners are also used in the cleaning of baking pans in bakeries, vent hoods in canneries, drink and water dispensers, and in a host of other applications that demand a thorough and safe cleaning process.
