Sonicor's Powerful and Efficient Ultrasonic Cleaning Line

When billions of microscopic vacuum bubbles implode against surfaces being cleaned, they blast away and carry off contaminants. This process is called cavitation, and it’s what drives the powerful and efficient ultrasonic cleaning line offered by Sonicor.

Unlike traditional scrubbing or soaking methods, an ultrasonic cleaner eliminates the need for manual labor by allowing you to quickly and efficiently clean a wide variety of items from small jewelry pieces to large mechanical parts. Using an ultrasonic cleaning machine also eliminates the need for harsh chemicals, making it an environmentally friendly option.

Ultrasonic cleaners work by introducing mechanical vibration into a container filled with cleaning solution and then generating sound waves that cause the water to vibrate. This vibration is generated by an ultrasonic transducer that’s attached to the bottom or side wall of the container, and it transmits evenly into the fluid to create a cavitation effect.

Once an item is placed into the container, a degas mode is activated to eject gases that are trapped in the cleaning solution before the full cleaning cycle begins. Depending on the task at hand, a span of 2-10 minutes is usually enough to achieve an all-encompassing and effective clean.

To enhance the performance of an ultrasonic cleaner, choosing a frequency that is appropriate to the job at hand is recommended. Lower frequencies such as 25 kHz generate larger bubbles that implode more forcefully to remove stubborn contamination. This is a useful feature for eliminating polishing pastes and lapping abrasives from hard metals, as well as removing oil from machining tools.

When working with delicate or fragile items, a delicate mode on an ultrasonic cleaner is a convenient way to safeguard them from damage. This mode reduces the power level by half, delivering a more gentle yet powerful cleaning action. For heavy-duty tasks such as dislodging debris from serrations, crevices, and lumens, a full power mode is ideal.

Once the cleaning cycle is complete, a rinsing mode on an ultrasonic cleaner helps ensure a thorough and consistent rinse. This helps minimize the number of particles carried over into the next operation, which can contaminate new components or damage sensitive equipment.

The powerful and efficient ultrasonic cleaning line from Sonicor is available in a range of sizes to accommodate your specific cleaning needs. Choose from models with baskets for smaller items, or go for a freestanding industrial unit with an ultrasonic drain and large tank capacity to handle heavy-duty applications such as equipment maintenance, solder flux removal, printing, and 3-D mold support.
