No Need for Chemicals -- Ultrasonic Waves Clean in Water

Traditional cleaning of machine parts and components involves using strong chemicals that need to be disposed of and are environmentally hazardous. Industrial ultrasonic cleaners using ultrasonic waves, on the other hand, do not need harsh cleaning chemicals and instead only use plain water to achieve the same results.

Kajio's ultrasonic cleaning systems use an ultrasonic generator to produce high frequency electric signals whose frequency ranges from 20 kHz to 200 kHz. These signals are fed to a transducer which is immersed in the water bath. The transducer vibrates which converts the electrical signal into sound waves in the water.

The sound waves produce tiny cavitation bubbles that appear and collapse. These bubbles scrub the surface they are cleaning and remove contaminants and foreign particles. Low frequencies produce larger bubbles that clean robust materials intensely while high frequencies produce smaller bubbles that are gentler to clean delicate surfaces.

For business owners and managers at manufacturing facilities that are faced with the high cost of using chemicals and complying with environmental regulations, ultrasonic cleaners represent an attractive alternative. In addition to cost savings industrial ultrasonic cleaners operate faster and more effectively than chemicals and solvents. Cleaning with ultrasonic waves is quick, thorough, and mechanical. Ultrasonic waves can also clean small holes and crevices plus do not cause damage to the parts being cleaned.

Kajio's ultrasonic cleaning systems include the Phenix III Turn Key Ultrasonic Cleaning System for both general and specialized industrial use, and as well as the Quava Mini table top ultrasonic system for cleaning smaller delicate parts. Individual parts include ultrasonic generators, transducers and tanks that hold the water where the parts are cleaned.

Customers who want to change from traditional cleaning methods can use the latest ultrasonic technology using one of Kaijo’s industrial ultrasonic cleaners.  Kaijo’s experienced support team will ensure that customers select the best system suited for their particular applications.
