Frequently Asked Questions About Ultrasonic Precision Cleaning

Q1. What is ultrasonic precision cleaning?
Ultrasonic cleaning uses high-frequency sound waves in a liquid solution to remove oils, particles, and residues from metal parts. The process creates microscopic bubbles that reach deep into blind holes, fine passageways, and intricate surfaces, ensuring a level of cleanliness that traditional cleaning methods cannot achieve.

Q2. What types of parts benefit most from ultrasonic cleaning?
Ultrasonic cleaning is ideal for precision-machined and complex components such as valves, tubing, fittings, surgical instruments, semiconductor tools, and aerospace connectors. It is especially valuable for parts with tight tolerances, delicate surfaces, or hard-to-reach geometries.

Q3. Which industries use ultrasonic precision cleaning?
Industries that demand contamination-free parts rely on ultrasonic cleaning, including aerospace, medical devices, semiconductor manufacturing, biopharmaceutical equipment, and oxygen service systems.

Q4. Does AMF provide compliance documentation?
Yes. AMF can provide a Certificate of Compliance to applicable standards such as ASTM G93 and CGA G-4, giving you confidence that your components meet required cleanliness levels.

Q5. How fast is the turnaround time?
AMF offers standard and rush turnaround options, including same-day service when needed, to help keep your production on schedule.

Q6. How clean does ultrasonic cleaning get compared to other methods?
Ultrasonic cleaning removes contaminants down to a microscopic level, making it more effective than manual scrubbing or spray cleaning. It ensures particle-free, oil-free surfaces that meet the most stringent specifications.

Q7. Can ultrasonic precision cleaning damage delicate parts?
No. The process is non-abrasive and safe for delicate or finely machined surfaces. Unlike mechanical cleaning methods, ultrasonic cleaning does not scratch or distort components.

Q8. What materials can be cleaned with ultrasonic precision cleaning?
Ultrasonic cleaning works on a wide range of metals including stainless steel, titanium, aluminum, copper, and brass, as well as certain plastics used in medical and electronic assemblies.

Q9. When should I choose ultrasonic cleaning over other methods?
Ultrasonic cleaning is best when parts have complex geometries, tight cleanliness requirements, or are used in industries where even microscopic contamination can cause failures — such as aerospace, medical, semiconductor, and oxygen service environments.
