In the classic Beatles tune “Penny Lane”, Paul McCartney sings about “a fireman with an hourglass” who “likes to keep his fire engine clean”. In those days, the mythical firefighter may have had to use soap, rags, brushes and other hand tools to keep his fire engine sparkling and pristine. Nearly fifty years later, a relatively new technology enables firefighters and others to keep their engines free of grease, dirt and other particles: the ultrasonic cleaner.

In order for brass instruments, such as trumpets, trombones and saxophones, to maintain their clear sound, musicians must keep them clean and well maintained. With so many moving parts (keys, valves, etc.) on these complicated but delicate instruments, cleaning can be a tiresome, time-intensive chore. Ultrasonic cleaners, normally associated with laboratories and industrial applications, are also highly useful at keeping these instruments sounding sweet and in tune.

In earlier times, a man’s pocket watch was as much a sign of his status as his clothes, house or car. Today, brands like Breitling, Omega and TAG Heuer carry as much weight among connoisseurs of luxury timepieces as Bentley, Maybach and Maserati do among those who treasure high-end automobiles. Both items represent a combination of lofty status and top-notch engineering. Fortunately for lovers of name-brand watches, they are much easier to clean and maintain than their automotive counterparts, thanks in large part to small, portable ultrasonic cleaners.

Every year, millions of Americans enjoy casting their lines into their local lakes, rivers and bays to hopefully catch a few fish.

In the early days of the World Wide Web, many people forecasted the vast reduction, or complete elimination, of paper from daily office chores. If anything, the needs for printing out web pages, database tables and reports have grown with the expansion of the Web into everyday life. As such, the requirements on both home and office printers have also expanded, leading to downtime for printers due to dirt and clogs. One method that printer users have employed to keep their printers running is the use of ultrasonic cleaners.

“I will keep my rifle clean and ready, even as I am clean and ready.” – Marine Corps Rifleman’s Creed

Oil, gunpowder and other substances could cause the weapon to jam or misfire. In earlier times, cleaning a pistol, rifle or other firearm was often a time-consuming chore. With so many moving parts, including the ejector, guide rails, and firing mechanism, cleaning a gun by hand was a tedious but necessary task.

Throughout the course of human history, civilizations have cherished gold, silver and jewels as both objects of value and as decoration. Down through the centuries, people have also had to deal with keeping these precious metals and stones free of dirt, grime and other particles that can dim their luster.

Beyond the Lab: Ultrasonic Cleaners for Hobbyists

Over the past several years, ultrasonic cleaning machines have become a staple of laboratories, machine shops and factories. In many medical offices, ultrasonic cleaners have taken the place of manual cleaning tasks for cleaning delicate surgical equipment. Ultrasonic cleaners are also much safer for lab workers, as they prevent the possibility of inadvertent cuts or bloodborne contamination that may occur when the workers clean the instruments manually. 

Ultrasonic cleaners are great for dental, veterinary, surgical and medical instrument cleaning. These cleaners improve over all infection control and productivity by providing a safer method which is more efficient than manual cleaning. Ultrasonic cleaners easily and thoroughly remove blood, saliva, dirt and other debris from your medical instruments without damaging them.

Thorough ultrasonic cleaning of electronics plays a crucial role in assuring reliability of the finished product. Flux removal from assembled and reworked PCBs as well as solder paste removal from misprinted PCBs are critical process steps. An ultrasonic circuit board cleaner removes flux, even tenacious residues from lead-free and low-residue fluxes, from printed circuit boards with either through-hole technology or surface-mount components. Ultrasonic cleaning of electrical components offers clear advantages over spray washing when the components have tight clearances or tubular geometries.

Lawnmower Carb Ultrasonic Cleaning

Lawnmowers range from manual-reel mowers, electric push-type mowers, gas-powered mowers, lawn tractors and zero-turn mowers. A typical lawn mower consists of basic parts including air filters, spark plugs, blades and the engine. Like other equipment, lawn mowers need constant maintenance. Regular cleaning should be observed not just on the deck, but also inside the mower where grass and other debris tend to get stuck in. It is important that these lawnmowers look good not just on the outside, but on the inside as well.

There are many applications for an ultrasonic parts cleaner in a machine shop. In an environment filled with grease, lubricants, compounds, and other impurities, ultrasonic cleaning saves time and provides reliable, thorough results. Let's take a look at three different uses for ultrasonic cleaners in machine shops, including ultrasonic pre-treatment of parts, degreasing of parts and tools, and refurbishing used equipment.

Using a cleaning solution stronger than just a dilution of a household all-purpose cleaner can remove metal plating such as chrome from surfaces on plastic models. Since cavitation occurs everywhere on objects being cleaned the process is more efficient and gentle than other stripping processes.

Because new ultrasonic cleaning equipment, especially industrial-sized units, can be pricey acquiring a used unit might be a less expensive alternative. But is it worth it? What do you have to look for to make sure that you don’t spend the money on a unit that does not work well for your purpose or breaks down after only a few weeks of service?

Ultrasonic cleaning has become one of the most popular ways to clean electronics. The process saves time and improves results without compromising safety. Let's take a quick look at how an ultrasonic electronics cleaner can be used effectively for circuit boards, PCB, and electrical assemblies.
