3. Operating
principle
Ultrasonic cleaning is presently considered to be the most modern
and effective method employed in the area of high-precision cleaning
processes.
3.1
What does ultrasonic cleaning entail?
The success of this cleaning method basically depends on 4 criteria:
Ultrasound energy is considered as the most efficient mechanical
input into cleaning processes. This energy must be diffused by means
of a liquid that will act upon the targeted surfaces.
In order to remove pollutants from part surfaces, it is essential to use
an appropriate detergent. The chemical product also proves
necessary in reducing surface tension of the liquid. The effectiveness
of ultrasound is therefore magnified.
The cleaning result improves significantly whenever the liquid is
heated to the right temperature.
Cleaning time depends on the degree and type of pollutant, the
cleaning product and temperature, as well as on the success rate.
