Parts and contaminants · 5 min readRemoving oil and greaseOil is the easiest soil for an ultrasonic bath and the one that kills the bath fastest. Chemistry, temperature and time for light machine oil, chassis grease and waxy lubricants, and why the skimmer matters more than the transducers once the parts come out clean.
Parts and contaminants · 3 min readRemoving heavy grease and sludge from engine partsCrankshafts, connecting rods, sumps, timing covers and gearbox cases come in coated in oil, sludge and road grime. The hot soak, the ultrasonic cycle and the skimmer that let one bath degrease a week of engine rebuilds instead of a day.
Operation and maintenance · 4 min readTroubleshooting: the machine runs but the parts are not cleanNine causes cover almost every case, and seven of them are the bath or the loading, not the machine. A checklist in the order that finds the fault fastest, from the sound of the tank to the generator display.
Choosing a machine · 4 min readST or SF: when the bath needs its own filtrationThe ST series is a heated ultrasonic tank; the SF series is the same tank built around a circulation loop with a buffer tank, oil skimmer and laminar flow. The second costs more and stands longer between bath changes. Where the line between them runs, with the overlapping models compared.
Process and parameters · 4 min readFiltration and bath lifeA cleaning bath fails in three ways: it fills with particles, it saturates with oil, or its chemistry is used up. Filtration handles the first two and stretches the third. What a filtration loop and an oil skimmer do, when a bath needs them, and how to tell when a bath is finished.
Operation and maintenance · 4 min readEnergy and running costs of an ultrasonic cleaning tankThe heater, not the ultrasound, is the cost. What a 96-litre and a 300-litre tank draw over a shift, where the kilowatt-hours go, and the four habits that cut the bill by a third: lid, timed heat-up, the right temperature, and a bath that lasts.
Operation and maintenance · 3 min readDaily and weekly maintenance of an ultrasonic cleanerAn ultrasonic tank has no wear parts in the liquid, so maintenance is about the bath, the floor, the filter and the heater. A routine that takes ten minutes a day and half an hour a week, and what to look at once a month.Let's find the right fit
