What a Multi Ultrasonic Frequency Generator Does and the Benefits It Offers

An ultrasonic frequency generator linked with a transducer produces ultrasonic sound waves that can clean a wide variety of parts. It provides an effective alternative to traditional cleaning of industrial parts which involves the use of harsh chemicals and intense scrubbing. The generator produces ultrasonic sound waves, which in turn generates cavitation bubbles in the cleaning liquid of the tank that cleans the parts.

A multi-frequency ultrasonic generator is ideal for various cleaning applications, not to mention effective and cost-saving. Different frequencies and power levels deliver different cleaning intensities, depending on the need in the application. High frequencies produce smaller cavitation bubbles which clean more delicate surfaces, while lower frequencies generate bigger cavitation bubbles for intensive cleaning of robust parts.

Kajio has developed a full line of ultrasonic frequency generators which are ideal for most cleaning applications. They range in frequency from 19.5 kHz to 950 kHz. Kajio’s Quava Multi generator offers two versions to accommodate cleaning applications that require multiple frequencies. Each version has three frequencies, has an eight-step power output (maximum of 600 watts) and works with different types of transducers that can support all three frequencies. This allows changing of frequencies and adjusting power output without the need of replacing transducers or the ultrasonic generator setup. This provides more flexibility in changing from one cleaning task to another.

The Quava Multi Generator is designed for multiple cleaning applications, therefore is the ideal solution for various cleaning requirements for manufacturing companies with varied cleaning needs.

The Benefits Industrial Ultrasonic Cleaners Offer over Traditional Industrial Cleaning Methods

Many manufacturing facilities have processes that involve cleaning parts and devices. Many use traditional cleaning that involves the use of harsh chemicals and mechanical scrubbing that may damage the devices. However these methods cannot easily clean particles from parts with complex shapes and crevices. This is why industrial ultrasonic cleaners have become the more preferred and acceptable alternative to these traditional methods.

Industrial ultrasonic cleaning systems involve the use of ultrasonic generator, transducers, and a tank which holds the cleaning solution and the components or parts to be cleaned. The generator powers the transducers by producing sound waves, which create energetic bubbles which act as the "cleaners" for the components in the tank. Higher frequencies produce smaller bubbles (ideal for cleaning delicate and more complex parts like hard disk drives, LCD's solar panels, etc.). Lower frequencies produce bigger bubbles (for cleaning more robust parts like glass, ceramics, lenses, medical tools, machined parts, etc.). This process can use plain water or mild cleaning solvents.

Kaijo’s industrial ultrasonic cleaners emphasize ease of use and flexibility to meet the needs of various cleaning applications. This system can operate at frequencies that range from 19.5 kHz to 1.6 MHz.

Kaijo’s Phenix III turnkey ultrasonic cleaning system can operate at 26 or 38 kHz and can deliver 600W or 1200W of power. This is usually used for low-frequency cleaning applications.

For higher-frequency cleaning Kajio has a range of several systems to meet different requirements. These systems include the Phenix Legend ultrasonic generators (which can operate up to 160 kHz) and the Quava generators (up to 950 kHz).

How the Immersible Ultrasonic Transducer Is Used in Industrial Cleaning Applications

Facility managers and process engineers at industrial facilities can use ultrasonic cleaning solutions to reduce chemical usage and improve their industrial cleaning tasks. Turnkey systems that include transducers, generators and tanks are available, however for some industrial cleaning applications a more flexible solution may be needed that uses a portable immersible ultrasonic transducer.  

Kaijo provides various models of immersible ultrasonic transducers. These units can be immersed into existing tanks and will be compatible with any Kajio ultrasonic generator. They come in 600 Watt and 1200 Watt versions and operate frequencies from 26 kHz to 160 kHz. To ensure thorough and effective cleaning ultrasonic transducers need to operate at the proper frequency and power level according to the requirements needed in the cleaning application.

Kajio's immersible ultrasonic transducers are also flexible in providing cleaning solutions required for cleaning different components. For cleaning small, delicate parts, a higher frequency (such as 130 kHz and 160 kHz) the transducer generates smaller cavitation bubbles that collapse with less energy which results in finer, gentler cleaning. For robust components with heavy contamination, a transducer running at a lower frequency generates larger cavitation bubbles which provide more robust cleaning. The power of the transducer dictates the number of bubbles the transducer will generate. For cleaning bigger parts, several transducers can be placed into a larger tank to handle to handle the required cleaning at the proper frequency.

Immersible transducers are typically used to clean parts and components in different size tanks that are too big to fit in the standard tanks of turnkey items. They can also be placed in any tank in single or multiple configurations, and can be mounted vertically or horizontally, and can be adjusted to handle various cleaning applications.

Manufacturers that replace the use of chemical and mechanical cleaning processes with ultrasonic cleaning systems can reduce their chemical costs and improve their operating efficiency.

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.

Why 40 kHz Ultrasonic Transducers Are Used by Manufacturers in Cleaning Applications

Ultrasonic cleaning systems offer significant advantages to manufacturers over traditional chemical-based cleaning methods. Ultrasonic cleaning systems provide lower operational cost savings since they don’t use harsh cleaning chemicals that require compliance with environmental regulations. They are also clean faster and are more effective in removing surface containments and residues from irregularly-shaped surfaces of components or devices. Before purchasing an ultrasonic system a customer first needs to determine which frequency will work best for their cleaning application.

 

Ultrasonic cleaning systems operate at frequencies that range between 20 kHz and 200 kHz. The cleaning system consists of a generator, transducer and a cleaning tank. The transducer generates ultrasonic waves that produce bubbles in the water of the cleaning tank. At lower frequencies larger bubbles are created that provide more intensive cleaning while smaller bubbles are created at high frequencies which clean more gently. A 40 khz ultrasonic transducer generates mid-range to large bubbles which effectively cleans a wide range of manufactured parts that is needed by manufacturers.

The nature of contamination or dirt on the parts or components to be cleaned will determine which frequency will work best for ultrasonic cleaning. Robust parts that have heavy deposits to be removed will require a lower frequency with intensive cleaning. Delicate parts with only dirty film or microscopic particles will need to be cleaned at high frequencies. The mid-range 40 khz ultrasonic transducer combines the most desirable features of both extremes.

In cleaning applications an ultrasonic transducer operating at 40 kHz can effectively clean industrial devices, machined parts, ceramics, jewelry, hard disk drive parts, wires and glass parts such as lenses. Both light films heavy contaminations are effectively removed without damaging the surface of the parts that are cleaned.

Kajio’s 40 khz Ultrasonic Transducer is available in immersible, bolt-on, and tank-mounted configurations. To learn more about the 40kHz ultrasonic transducers, read the main article on Kaijo’s website entitled “Why 40kHz Ultrasonic Transducers Are Used by Manufacturers in Cleaning Applications.”

Why a Mini Ultrasonic Generator System May Be the Best Choice for Your Device Cleaning Requirements

Ultrasonic cleaning is a fast, effective, practical, and environmentally-friendly alternative to cleaning objects using harsh chemicals and scrubbing. An ultrasonic generator with low ultrasonic frequency can produce large cavitation bubbles which clean stains and impurities with robust action while a high-frequency cleaning produces smaller cavitation bubbles and less intense cleaning action, ideal for gentler cleaning tasks.

Kaijo's Quava Mini ultrasonic generator is able to clean small parts using a wide frequency range depending on the cleaning task, making it ideal for all-purpose cleaning. The Quava Mini can be used by facilities that either clean a variety of components or have specific cleaning requirements.

The Quava Mini ultrasonic generator is available in two models. The low frequency provides either 26/78/130 kHz or 38/100/160 kHz at up to 50 W while the high frequency model produces 200/430/950 kHz or 1.6 MHz at up to 100 W. For a complete range of low and high frequencies an installation requires either the low range generator with two multi-frequency transducers or the high range generator with four multi-frequency transducers.

The Quava Mini has an LED display for precise control of the power brought to the transducer. Power can be different in steps of 0.1 W for precise control of cleaning power. For the low-frequency model, several frequencies can be adjusted without changing the system configuration. For the high-frequency model, the transducer is changed to meet the selected frequency. A low frequency produces large cavitation bubbles for a more intense cleaning action while a high frequency produces smaller bubbles for gentler cleaning. By increasing the power delivered to the transducer more bubbles are produced at a given frequency.
