Ultrasonic Cleaning Gives Food and Pharmaceutical Producers a Clean Path to Success
Ultrasonic cleaning systems are used for everything from cleaning impossible-to-reach blind holes in filling valves, vitamin molds, solid dosage tooling, food conveyors to preparing surgical instruments and implants for surgery.
Food and drug companies are impressing inspectors and helping the bottom line with ultrasonic cleaning technology.
Using ultrasonic technology, one person can do the work of three in less than 1/3 of the time. When it comes to the cleaning of parts and equipment used to process or dispense food, supplements and pharmaceuticals, the risks are great. Standards are high, inspectors are tough and companies are expected to meet the strictest requirements in an environment that makes it difficult to keep costs down.
More and more companies are discovering ultrasonic technology helps them meet and exceed the highest standards while also positively affecting the bottom line. Ultrasonic cleaning technology is used for everything from cleaning impossible-to-reach filling valves to preparing surgical instruments and implants before surgery – all while positively affecting the bottom line.
We used to have three 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.

Case Study
See how Omegasonics ultrasonic cleaning technology helps a Canadian frozen foods processor save on production costs and reduce cleaning time by more than 85 percent. Previously, it took a skilled mechanic four hours to clean one of their Ishida bucket scales, Now, a staff member, can clean eight scales in four hours.
