Ultrasonic cleaners are widely used in various industries to efficiently clean a wide variety of objects. These cleaners utilize high-frequency sound waves to produce cavitation bubbles in a cleaning solution, which then implode and remove contaminants from the surfaces of objects immersed in the tank with an appropriate cleaning solution. One critical factor influencing the […]
How an Ultrasonic Cleaner Works – part 2 – Chemistries
In a previous post we examined the basics of ultrasonic cleaning, and learned how ultrasonic cleaners essentially “pressure wash” objects at the microscopic level. In this post, we take a closer look at the liquid medium used to transmit the ultrasonic sound waves and clean objects in industrial ultrasonic cleaners. First, a brief review of […]
Finding the Right Ultrasonic Frequencies and Chemicals
Industrial tools and medical instruments come in many different shapes and sizes. While in use, they can accumulate grease, bacteria, oils and more. But did you know that 30-50% of the surface area for many these items are unreachable when cleaned by a bristle brush! This poses a tough challenge for the operator when trying […]
The Importance of Choosing the Right Ultrasonic Soap for Cleaning
For example, did you know that picking the wrong ultrasonic soap when cleaning can cause your machine to suffer from a poor cleaning performance? It can damage the item and disrupt the cavitation process, as well. Using the wrong soap can also decrease efficiency in ultrasonic cleaning, resulting in un-maximized gains. Omegasonics is one of […]
