Ultrasonic Cleaning Car Parts

Automotive ultrasonic cleaners and solutions for manufacturers, auto shops, and hobbyists.

Are you an industrial automotive manufacturing executive, a repair shop mechanic, or a serious hobbyist? Do you need to clean contaminated or greasy parts? Then the ultrasonic cleaning process is an excellent option for you.

Ultrasonic cleaning is a process that uses tanks, transducers, and cleaning solutions to remove contaminants from objects. Transducers create high frequency pressure waves that produce microscopic cavitation bubbles within a cleaning solution.

The bubbles can travel through blind holes, around corners and crevices, inside tubes, and even small, complex parts. When these bubbles implode on the surface of a submerged part, they produce a powerful scrubbing action that is nonetheless gentle on surfaces such as metals, ceramics, and plastics.

The entire process lets you effectively clean all sorts of contaminants and debris on all types of automotive parts, including carbon deposits, grease, sludge, oils, paint, and rust. Ultrasonic cleaning systems are fast and effective, with numerous benefits over traditional cleaning methods.

That’s why industry-leading manufacturers and auto shops use Mirai Ultrasonics precision cleaning equipment and highly effective Chem-Mirai® solutions.

Benefits of ultrasonic cleaning for car parts

Ultrasonics can remove all sorts of tough substances from a wide range of automotive parts, yet it is safe on most surfaces, including aluminum and wiring. An extensive list of standard and custom solutions for specific applications means that the right chemistry is at hand to attack any cleaning challenges you might face. And you won’t need harsh chemicals.

Because the cleaning action is so effective, your cleaned parts will perform at their peak and last longer. And because the work happens automatically in a tank, your need for manual cleaning and maintenance will plummet, meaning your productivity can skyrocket—which means cost effectiveness. and an outstanding return on your investment.

Speaking of tanks, we offer small desktop units to large industrial equipment, including custom designs for any extremely large or very small parts.

Use correct cleaning solution and wash times

Our Chem-Mirai ultrasonic cleaning solutions are crucial in effectively cleaning your car parts.

Different automotive cleaning scenarios require different chemical solutions, so it’s essential to know the chemistry of what you’re adding before use.

A general-purpose degreaser or soap-based detergent is often enough for lighter jobs. An alkaline solvent may be necessary to penetrate more stubborn deposits.

Time spent soaking is also important. Some jobs require five minutes, while others need half an hour.
