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 readWhat we need to quote an ultrasonic cleaning systemSix answers let us size a tank, pick a frequency and quote without a week of e-mail: the part, the soil, the throughput, the supply, the space and the result you need. What each one changes in the machine, and what to send if you do not know yet.
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 · 3 min readTank material and wall thicknessOur tanks are AISI 304 stainless steel, 2 mm on the ST and SF series and 2.5 mm from the AL-600 upwards. Why that grade, why those thicknesses, what cavitation does to a tank floor over the years, and when AISI 316 is worth specifying.
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 readLoading the basket: shadowing, orientation and how much is too muchHalf of all "the machine does not clean" complaints are loading problems. How parts shadow each other, why blind holes go in tilted with the opening upward, what a basket load of 75 or 100 kg really means, and how to lay out a batch so the last part is as clean as the first.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.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.Let's find the right fit
Not sure which size you need?
Send us the part, the quantity per hour and the soil you are removing. We will size the tank and the frequency with you.
