Choosing a machine · 3 min readUMX Pro or ST series: two ways to build a 100-litre cleanerThe ST series is a floor tank with a separate generator cabinet; the UMX Pro is a cabinet with everything inside and a digital control panel. Same physics, different shop. Where each fits, with the overlapping models compared.
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.
Choosing a machine · 3 min readDryer tanks: the DT series after the wash and rinseA hot-air drying tank the same size as the wash tank, so the basket goes from one to the other without repacking. What the DT series does, how long a basket takes to dry, and when a dryer is worth its floor space.
Process and parameters · 4 min readChoosing the cleaning temperatureHeat speeds up the chemistry and thins the oil, but above about 80 °C cavitation weakens. Where to set the bath for oil, carbon, machining residue, flux and biological soil, and why our tanks heat to 100 or 110 °C when most cleaning happens at 50 to 65.
Choosing a machine · 3 min readBenchtop or industrial: where the 30-litre line sits and whyBelow 30 litres a benchtop cleaner on a 230 V socket does the job. Above it, the tank needs a frame, three-phase heating, a drain and a real basket. What changes at the boundary, with the figures from our STS, ST and UMX Pro ranges.
