The Role of Agitation in Ultrasonic Cleaning

Ultrasonic cleaning is often understood through the lens of cavitation, the rapid formation and collapse of microscopic bubbles that dislodge contaminants at a microscopic level. But cavitation alone doesn’t determine how thoroughly or evenly a part is cleaned. The way a part moves through the tank also plays a critical role. One of the most

The Hidden Costs of Detergent Carryover and How to Avoid Them

In ultrasonic cleaning, quality results depend on more than just cavitation energy and detergent strength. What happens after the wash cycle can significantly affect both operational cost and consistency. One of the most overlooked factors is detergent carryover, also known as drag-out. Carryover occurs when residual chemistry clings to a part and gets transferred into
