what is the meaning of ultrasonic validation ? Validation is a process of demonstrating, through documented evidence, that a process, procedure, method, piece of equipment, or facility will consistently produce a product or result that meets predetermined specifications and quality attributes Establishing the process of fulfill for purpose. how this can be accomplished ? there are several methods to test ultrasonic systems, one of them is the cavimeter of Elma Schmidbauer GmbH  the elma cavimeter is measuring the cavitation noise figure. to get precise measuring data it is important to measure the ultrasonic cleaner when it is new. With this measurement you got reliable data's as reference which can be used to compare all future measurements.  according to previous studies of Elma this phenomena shows: effect of cavitation in ultrasound DISCUSSION & CONCLUSIONS have been made:  It has been generally accepted t...

when are multi frequency ultrasonic cleaners used ?

when are multi frequency ultrasonic cleaners used? in the past only single frequency ultrasonic cleaners exist, thanks to the ultrasonic R&D (research and development). Now multi frequency ultrasonic cleaners create 2 or even more frequencies in one tank. since a few years there are several different multi frequency ultrasonic cleaners on the market. different ultrasonic manufacturer offer different frequency pairings , for example 25kHz/45kHz, 40kHz/80kHz or 35kHz/130kHz Multifrequency ultrasonic cleaners can be used for different cleaning task, for example rough cleaning and fine cleaning. Mulitfrequency ultrasonic cleaners can be used for different products, as mulitfrequency offers more possibilities. specially in the current manufacturing steps processes change fast, therefore multi frequency may help to increase your yields. it is a good investment to choose a multi frequency ultrasonic cleaner instead a single frequency, in...

ultrasonic cleaning - are of use

Ultrasonic cleaning-area of use   Currently the most gentle technology for precision cleaning. Ultrasonic cleaning is accomplished through the rapid formation and collapsing of gas bubbles or cavities bubbles in liquid. This phenomenon is called cavitation. Parts that somehow would need ordinarily require intense hand scrubbing can often be cleaned in a matter of minutes with an ultrasonic cleaning system.   Ultrasonic should be considered in applications where it is important to have a gentle cleaning where contaminants may be lodged in crevices, or where precise results are necessary without damaging any parts. Ultrasonic cleaning is used in the following business fields or industries: Jewellery shop and jewellery manufacturing Watch service center or watch manufacturing Dental lab or dental practice Hospital and central sterile services department of hospitals Medical Industry manufacturing Medical implant manufacturing Electron...

multi frequency ultrasonic cleaner- what does it mean ? | presented by E&W Industrial Service Asia Co.,Ltd.

multi frequency ultrasonic cleaners are ultrasonic cleaner which can be operated with different kind frequency's in the same tank. in general different frequencies are created by the transducers. for example a low frequency for the rough cleaning or pre-cleaning step and a high frequency for the fine cleaning step. there are different kinds of Brand Names and NO Brand names on the market. Some of them they create low and high frequencies even at the same time, somehow our Partner Company Elma has done several test in their Lab during this test 2 different frequency's has been operated in the same tank at the same time. Obviously during this test the Experts of Elma even thought that this 2 frequency's may disturb each other then bringing better cleaning results. somehow this is depending on so many conditions, for example on the kind of product and as well on the contamination, may cleaning test can provide helpful information in advanc...

how to choose the right ultrasonic cleaners?

how to choose the right ultrasonic cleaners? it starts with the decision brand name ultrasonic cleaners versus no brand or unknown ultrasonic cleaners, which is a matter of the amount of investment. here are some main fact's why you should go for the quality brand name product instead of going for the unknown or low price class.  Advantage Brand Names versus unknown : Brand Names. most brand names manufacturers have a long tradition, which means the have experience and quality products. brand name products create cavitation, which means providing efficient cleaning and  are reliable in daily use. their manufacturers provide you with documentation as well with after sales service and spare parts if  this would be necessary. Unknown Brand or Imitations (counterfeit) Products: Less efficient cleaning may low cavitation or even no cavitation at all. Lack of reliability and availability. ...

Does your Ultrasonic cleaner create cavitation?

Ultrasonic should create cavitation. But what is cavitation, cavitation is vapor formation in liquids. Which means nothing else then the electrical energy created by the ultrasonic generator will be transformed into mechanical vibration's which create vapor formations (micro gas bubbles) in liquid. What are the advantage of ultrasonic cavitation's: Cavitation support cleaning process and reduce cleaning time. Cavitation supports cleaning in hollow body's, it cleans there where liquid is present. Ultrasonic systems are available in different frequencies, which will be selected for rough or fine cleaning tasks. Some Companies even offer multi Frequencies ultrasonic cleaners, means this different frequencies can be selected for different cleaning task. Further details about cavitation you may find here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavitation some ultrasonic cleaners may create noise but may not create enough cavitation. Only Ultrason...

How to choose the correct cleaning chemistry?

How to choose the correct cleaning chemistry ? Choosing Ultrasonic cleaning chemistry is not an easy task,  many person's prefer to use strong cleaning chemistry, which handle their task quick.

what are the most important facts for sucessful ultrasonic cleaning!

for a successful ultrasonic cleaning it is necessary to have 4 important issues, if this 4 issues are chosen in the correct way then your parts will be perfectly cleaned. ultrasonic cleaner. Cleaning or cycle time selected. Cleaning solution or chemistry selected. Cleaning temperature selected. In this case the ultrasonic cleaner can be compared with a brush, he scrub your parts and remove the contamination. if the time is to short then parts may not perfectly cleaned if the time is to long is a waste or it even damage your parts. if chemistry not chosen well then the parts may not perfect cleaned. depending on the contamination it is important to select the correct temperature set point. therefore we recommend to get in contact with us ,we are able to help you in any challenging cleaning tasks.

Cleaning of PCB boards with Ultrasonic

can printed circuit boards (PCB_Boards) or electronic parts be cleaned with ultrasonic? Yes, they can be cleaned. In past aerosol propellants (like freon) have been used for cleaning, which made the cleaning steps very easy and provide good results, somehow this aerosol products are bad for the environment and they may harm the ozone layer of our planet. in Europe it is prohibited to use aerosols for cleaning since the years 1993-1994, during that period the Goverment agencies support and sponsor Companies which shut down there old aerosol cleaners and invest in new water based cleaning lines. Elma was one of the companies which developed and manufactuered a customized multi stage ultrasonic cleaning line for PCB-Boards providing perfect cleaning results as with previous machines but beeing enviromental friendly. beside the ultrasonic cleaning we as recommend ultrasonic cleaning chemistry for different applications. contact us ...

Cleaning of nozzles from Water Jet Cutting Machines with Ultrasonic

Image
Today’s Recommendation cleaning of Nozzles from Water JET Cutting Machines:     Once a Time we met one of the Owners of the famous and well-known local Company for Roof Tiles Oranvanich and he mentioned that he is looking for an Ultrasonic cleaner to clean the Nozzles of his Water Jet Cutting Machines for the Production. We do not hesitate to offer him to visit them in there Factory and do a test cleaning as well giving them a recommendation for the Chemicals, Process steps and other important issues. As you may already estimate these nozzles are very small around 8-10mm but the hole for the water inside this nozzles, which need to be cleaned is much smaller maybe roundabout   1mm , during cutting dirt accumulate inside the hole and start to block it and then the cutting is not efficient as well the Cutting Edge is unlike. For this Job we recommend a Elmasonic S 30H unit and we would offer 2 suitable cleaning Solutions Number 1   ...
