This process can be completely customized to fit the part you\u2019re cleaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, aluminum, brass, carbon steel, and copper quickly develop a thin layer of oxidation (rust) after being rinsed with water. The use of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.omegasonics.com\/product\/omega-rust-protectant\/\">Omega Rust Protectant<\/a>&nbsp;forms a protective barrier on the metal that allows you to skip the rinsing process in order to protect the part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other cases, rinsing is safe for certain types of metal, but when the water dries, it can leave visible spotting. Using&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.omegasonics.com\/product\/omegarinse\/\">OmegaRinse<\/a>&nbsp;promotes the sheeting of moisture from the surface, there for reducing the occurrence of spotting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spend hours of labor cleaning in your business or hobby? A huge variety of professionals benefit from using an ultrasonic cleaning, including engineering, medical professionals, electronics fabricators, and manufacturing. In these industries, usually it requires hours of working with a bath of harsh solvents and time, methodically cleaning parts. There is a better option that takes less time and is more effective: Machine + Detergent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Machine<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The first part of the equation, the ultrasonic cleaning machine, does the heavy lifting. Omegasonics offers many shapes, sizes, and powers of ultrasonic cleaners. This includes&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.omegasonics.com\/table-top-washers\/\">table-top<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.omegasonics.com\/industrial-washers\/\">industrial cleaners.<\/a>&nbsp;The machine is the key to creating the cleaning action \u0003with ultrasonic waves: cavitation bubbles. However, adding detergents increases the \u0003cleaning action and can even prevent rust.

It is extremely important to remember that certain detergents cannot be \u0003used with certain types of parts, otherwise it may cause damage to the part. For example, OmegaMaxx is perfect for stainless steel, titanium, and steel, but should not be used with brass, copper, or aluminum. When working with metals that are prone to oxidation and rust, \u0003it is important to add an inhibitor to the medium (in an ultrasonic cleaner, this is water).
