Ultrasonic Cleaning

Ultrasonic cleaning is a precision cleaning process that uses high-frequency sound waves and specialized cleaning solutions to remove contaminants from the surface of metal components. During the process, microscopic bubbles are created and rapidly collapse in a phenomenon known as cavitation, effectively dislodging oils, grease, dirt, machining residues, polishing compounds, and other contaminants from even the most intricate part features. This non-abrasive method provides a thorough and consistent level of cleanliness that is difficult to achieve through conventional cleaning techniques.

At Kion Tech, ultrasonic cleaning is used as both a standalone service and a critical preparation step prior to plating, anodizing, passivation, chemical conversion coating, and other finishing processes. The process is particularly effective for components with complex geometries, blind holes, threads, and tight tolerances where cleanliness is essential to achieving optimal finishing results. Serving aerospace, defense, semiconductor, medical, and commercial industries, Kion Tech's ultrasonic cleaning services help ensure components meet stringent quality, performance, and cleanliness requirements.
