The role of an ultrasonic generator is essential since it generates the high-frequency electric signal that is required for an ultrasonic cleaning system to operate efficiently. These devices will produce frequencies that range between 20 kHz up to 1 MHz. Ultrasonic generators also ensure that the selected power and frequency are properly controlled and maintained.
Ultrasonic cleaning systems work by creating high-frequency sound waves within a cleaning solution to remove surface contaminants and dirt from various parts and devices. The parts and components being cleaned are immersed within a cleaning tank. When the right frequency is selected, the ultrasonic cleaning system will clean the parts and components quickly and effectively – even for items that have holes, irregular shapes, curves and crevices.

When the right frequency is selected, the ultrasonic cleaning system will clean the parts and components quickly and effectively – even for items that have holes, irregular shapes, curves and crevices.
The cleaning performance of the ultrasonic cleaning system depends on the action of the cavitation bubbles created by the high-frequency sound waves within the cleaning solution. These bubbles are formed in the wave pressure troughs and disappear in the pressure peaks – this action creates a powerful and intense scrubbing and cleaning action, dislodging contaminants from the surface of the immersed parts.
An Ultrasonic generator needs to fit the production environment and also match cleaning application requirements. Once the specific cleaning application requirements are defined, selecting the right ultrasonic generator which produces the appropriate frequency, as well as the corresponding transducers and cleaning tank is clear. If an ultrasonic cleaner is used the same way, to clean one kind of part made of the same material with the same contaminants, a single-frequency generator is usually the most cost effective option. The power of the ultrasonic generator must also be high enough to fill the cleaning tank with ultrasonic waves and the design must ensure that the wave pattern is uniform for effective cleaning.
