Some of the benefits of ultrasonic cleaning include being SAFE for the environment, SIMPLE to use, and SAVES on money, time, and labor. Ultrasonic cleaners provide us with a number of benefits that aren’t available with other styles of industrial parts washers. It’s because of these benefits we see them being used in a wide […]
The Best Way to Clean Firearms – Ultrasonics!
Approximately ten years ago, the government began restricting the use of chlorofluorocarbons, a potentially dangerous component commonly found in cleaning solutions used to clean guns and metals. This became a highly regulated solvent because it was extremely dangerous to the human skin. Recently, shooters and hunters have found ultrasonic cleaning to be a safer and […]
The Evolution of Ultrasonic Cleaning
Unlike today’s fast paced world economy, ultrasonic units were not always used on American Navy vessels for cleaning engine components and tools. Fire restoration companies were not commonly using ultrasound everyday to restore memories and magically bring household objects back to life… Currently, there are Omegasonics’ machines on almost every ship in the United States […]
How Ultrasonic Technology is Curing Common Mold
Ultrasonic Waves: The Cure for the Common Mold Even though ultrasonic cleaning is widely used in the restoration industry, many restoration professionals are not fully aware of how to maximize the unique advantages of an ultrasonic cleaner’s wide range of power and effectiveness. One area in which ultrasound is a must is when the job […]
Start Going Green with Water-Based Soaps in Ultrasonic Cleaning
Ultrasonic cleaners are quicker and better than manual cleaning methods, and do not use harsh or harmful chemicals. Ultrasonic cleaning provides faster, safer and more thorough results than toxic solvents ever could. Many cleaning solvents such as carburetor cleaner, brake cleaner, MEK or petroleum-based solvents have been outlawed due to their detrimental effects on people and the […]
Ultrasonic Tabletops – Powerful, Convenient Parts Cleaning
Before ultrasound was used to effectively clean larger-sized industrial parts, it was used initially in the medical industry. But the most commonly recognized application for ultrasonic cleaning known to the general public is jewelry. Everyone has been to a jeweler in the mall and heard those little tiny tanks buzzing away to the delight of […]
Ultrasonic Cleaning of Sensitive Metal Parts
Ultrasonic cleaning can be applied to a wide range of metals such as aluminum, stainless steel, and titanium to name a few. But what happens when those surfaces are highly sensitive metals and require specialized care? Because aluminum is such a soft metal, it is susceptible to the cavitation implosions that ultrasound cleaning produces. The […]
Ultrasonic Cleaning Test Lab for Industrial Parts Washing
At Omegasonics, we think of our ultrasonic cleaning testing lab like a “CSI crime scene lab” and even refer to ourselves as “chemistry detectives”. We have a large library of ultrasonic cleaning protocols for a variety of industrial parts, however, if we get a call regarding an item that we’ve never tested before, a client […]
Finding the Right Ultrasonic Frequencies and Chemicals
Industrial tools and medical instruments come in many different shapes and sizes. While in use, they can accumulate grease, bacteria, oils and more. But did you know that 30-50% of the surface area for many these items are unreachable when cleaned by a bristle brush! This poses a tough challenge for the operator when trying […]
Industrial Ultrasonic Cleaning Test Lab = “CSI: Simi Valley”
In previous posts we’ve talked about finding the right balance between ultrasonic chemistry, frequency, time, and process to maximize industrial ultrasonic cleaning efficiency. To uncover how to optimize these elements, we use our state-of-the-art testing lab located in Simi Valley, California. We think of our testing lab sort of like a “CSI crime scene lab” […]
