Ultrasonic
cleaners use high-frequency sound waves to remove impurities and contaminants
from metal and plastic components. They are seen as the better solution to the
traditional cleaning methods which uses harsh chemicals and mechanical
scrubbing which can damage the components.
Ultrasonic cleaners are especially useful
in automotive shops working with used engine parts and restoration facilities
working on classic cars. A lot of automotive parts have unusual and complicated
shapes, curves, holes, and crevices which mechanical scrubbing simply cannot
reach. Some areas may get more mechanical scrubbing than other areas
(especially the less visible ones), where the contaminants may remain.
Ultrasonic cleaners use ultrasonic
signals generated in the cleaning bath which creates millions of tiny bubbles
which do intensive cleaning. These bubbles help in removing oil, dirt, grease,
and grime throughout the bath. While the bubbles are intensive enough to
dislodge all the contaminants they will not cause damage to the metal surfaces.
In addition these bubbles will clean irregularly-shaped components, holes, and crevices
that are considered to be inaccessible by mere mechanical scrubbing.
Ultrasonic
cleaning systems can also be changed to operate at a higher frequency to
produce smaller, finer bubbles, which clean more delicate components. As a
result, the ultrasonic cleaning method cleans the automotive parts thoroughly
and quickly without damaging them.
