Choosing a machine · 3 min readWhen to choose a lift systemA pneumatic lift raises and lowers the basket and, while the ultrasound runs, moves it up and down in the bath. It is the answer when the load is too heavy to hoist by hand, when parts shadow each other, or when the cycle has to be the same every time. The AL series from 75 to 2000 litres, with its figures.
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.
Ultrasonic cleaning basics · 3 min readUltrasonic power density: watts per litre, and why big tanks need fewerDivide the ultrasonic power by the tank volume and you get the figure that predicts how hard a tank cleans. Our range runs from about 9 to 40 W per litre, and the spread is deliberate. How to read the number when comparing machines.
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.
Choosing a machine · 3 min readSpray washer or ultrasonic bathA rotating spray washer throws hot detergent at the part from nozzles as the basket turns; an ultrasonic bath immerses it. One is fast on big, open parts with gross soil; the other reaches inside. The SPR series, what it is good at, and the lines that use both.
Choosing a machine · 2 min readHow to size an ultrasonic tankStart from the basket, not the litre figure: the part, the clearance, the batch and the heat-up time decide the tank.
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.
Ultrasonic cleaning basics · 17 min readUltrasonic cleaning explained: waves, cavitation, generators, tanks and featuresThe long version: how ultrasonic waves make cavitation, what frequency and temperature do, how generators and transducers are built, and which features matter in a tank.
Choosing a machine · 2 min readChoosing the right ultrasonic cleaner: size, material, power and controlSize, frequency, power, tank material, timer and temperature control, brand and price: seven points to check before you choose a machine for the parts you clean.
