A flexible and gentle process

When cleaning with ultrasound, ultrasonic waves with a frequency of 21.5-130 kHz are used, depending on the application and the item in question. This allows you to remove paint residues, cooling lubricants, oil, rust, limescale, etc.

Ultrasonic cleaning is a gentle process that is suitable for e.g. stainless steel surfaces and aluminium, but it can be all types of surfaces – including plastics, metals, composites, etc. You are guaranteed an effective and gentle surface cleaning, where you can, for example, adjust the frequency and temperature depending on the application. At the same time, the purification takes place in a closed process without the use of environmentally harmful chemicals.

How is ultrasonic cleaning done?

Ultrasonic cleaning takes place in a tank chamber that is filled with cleaning fluid. In it, the blanks to be cleaned are immersed. The actual cleaning takes place via an ultrasonic transducer, which generates high-frequency sound waves. These sound waves create vibrations that lead to implosions of microscopic bubbles in the cleaning fluid, which in turn create tiny pressure waves in the liquid. Through these pressure waves, any impurities are loosened from the surface of the workpiece.
