Turbine cleaning presents a difficult challenge to maintenance crews. While necessary to maintain safety and operational efficiency, turbine cleaning mechanism that use standard methods leave much to be desired. Ultrasonic cleaning provides a cost-effective means and better results. Removing carbon deposits, rust, organic and inorganic matter that inhibits turbine blade gearing performance generally involves chemical […]
Training, Certification & Standards: Guest Blog from Total Contentz
There are three strong keywords to success and profit in business. They are training, certification and standards. At first glance, training, certification and standards don’t mean much; it’s only when one explores what these words can do that you begin to appreciate their true value. Here’s why training, certification and standards should be on your […]
Ultrasonic Drying Solutions
An essential component of an effective contents restoration assembly line is a reliable ultrasonic drying process. Since industrial drying applications can be done three different ways (oven dryer, centrifugal dryer, re-circulating dryer), which method is right for you? If you have questions, we encourage you to talk to an ultrasonic consultant today, They can assist […]
Ultrasonic Cleaning: A Primer
Ultrasonic cleaning — particularly that which involves cleaners that operate at the high and low ends of the ultrasonic spectrum — is truly coming into its own with each passing day. Industrial ultrasonic cleaners look somewhat like over-sized washing machines, and they can clean virtually any non-porous object that fits inside of them, from jewelry […]

Ultrasonic Cleaning of Personal Protection Equipment
Fire fighters have some of the most dangerous jobs in our country. Not only are they placed in life threatening situations on a regular basis, but did you know that their gear, also referred to as Personal Protective Equipment, or “PPE” for short, can also become health hazards for them? I’ve spoken with many fire […]
How an Ultrasonic Cleaner Works – part 5 – Bubble Size
As discussed in the previous post, the choice of frequency is a major consideration in the process of ultrasonic cleaning. Frequency plays a critical role in determining the size of bubbles produced in the cleaning liquid. These bubbles ultimately create the agitation used by ultrasonic cleaners. Industrial ultrasonic cleaners operate at a variety of frequencies […]
How an Ultrasonic Cleaner Works – part 4 – Frequencies
Ultrasonic cleaning utilizes the energy of collapsing bubbles to create an agitating action and clean objects on a microscopic level. Ultrasonic cleaners produce these bubbles when high frequency sound waves are transmitted through the liquid bath containing the object to be cleaned. The effect of temperature on the cleaning action was presented in a previous […]
How an Ultrasonic Cleaner Works – part 3 – Temperature
In our discussion of ultrasonic cleaners, we now turn our attention to the effect that temperature has on ultrasonic cleaning. Cavitations produced in a liquid by high frequency – or ultrasonic – sound waves result in streams of liquids essentially “power washing” objects on a microscopic level. What role does temperature play in the process? […]
How an Ultrasonic Cleaner Works – part 2 – Chemistries
In a previous post we examined the basics of ultrasonic cleaning, and learned how ultrasonic cleaners essentially “pressure wash” objects at the microscopic level. In this post, we take a closer look at the liquid medium used to transmit the ultrasonic sound waves and clean objects in industrial ultrasonic cleaners. First, a brief review of […]
