What is Ultrasonic Cleaning?

The Ultimate Guide

Ultrasonic cleaning is an advanced cleaning technique that uses high-frequency ultrasonic sound waves to remove dirt, oil, grease, and other contaminants from various surfaces and components

This method is highly effective, even for cleaning complex and delicate objects, such as medical equipment, industrial machinery, and electronic components. At Van Geenen, we offer top-level ultrasonic cleaning services, carried out in our state-of-the-art cleanroom.

How Does Ultrasonic Cleaning Work?

The process of ultrasonic cleaning begins with placing the items to be cleaned in a special bath filled with cleaning fluid. This fluid usually consists of water combined with a specially formulated cleaning agent, tailored to the type of contamination and the material of the items.

Ultrasonic sound waves

An ultrasonic cleaning device generates sound waves at very high frequencies, usually between 20 kHz and 400 kHz. These sound waves travel through the cleaning fluid, creating millions of microscopic bubbles. This phenomenon is known as cavitation, which provides powerful yet gentle cleaning.

Why Choose Ultrasonic Cleaning?

Ultrasonic cleaning offers many advantages compared to traditional cleaning methods. Here are some reasons why this method is becoming increasingly popular across various industries:

    • Thorough cleaning: The powerful cavitation bubbles reach even the smallest corners and crevices of an object. This ensures a deep and uniform clean, which is essential for precision instruments and medical equipment.
    • Time and cost-efficient: The cleaning process is automatic, making it faster than manual methods. This saves time and labor costs while significantly boosting productivity.
    • Environmentally friendly: Ultrasonic cleaning requires fewer harsh chemicals than traditional cleaning techniques. This makes the process safer for both the environment and employees.
    • Gentle cleaning: Despite the intensity of cavitation, ultrasonic cleaning is gentle on materials, making it suitable for delicate items such as medical instruments, electronics, and jewelry.
