Ultrasonic Technology Offers Ideal Optical Cleaning

CNC Cleaning Machinery

Ultrasonic cleaning is a proven method for the safe and effective removal of contaminants from optical components and assemblies. The compounds are used to polish mating surfaces to a perfectly smooth flat surface. In these applications it is absolutely critical that complete cleaning is accomplished while also avoiding scratching or otherwise compromising the product.

The sensitive components used in laser and optic applications must be precision cleaned to provide optimal performance. When contaminants such as smoke or resin accumulate on parts, available power to the equipment is reduced, and may result in damage. Anything less than entirely clean optics can also significantly reduce engraving and cutting quality.

Blackstone-NEY Ultrasonics offers a host of cleaning technologies that meet the unique requirements involved with the cleaning of optics, flat panel, and laser components. Our team has developed customized solutions for glass and quartz etching, rinsing, LCD display grade glass, prisms, polycarbonate and ophthalmic lens, laser and fiber optics, aluminum device housings, and more.

JAMESTOWN, NY – The CTG family of companies is proud to recognize three Blackstone-NEY Ultrasonics employees who stepped into a perilous situation to help save a life.

Merle Delcamp, Dean Bennett, and Patti Carlson, employees of Blackstone-NEY Ultrasonics, each played an important role in the rescue of a local man who was in extreme danger.

When Merle Delcamp and Dean Bennett arrived for work at 6:30 am on Monday, July 19th, they noticed area resident, Mike Campbell, attempting to rescue a man in distress. The victim was an older man who appeared to have fallen into the Chadakoin River and was clinging to a tree.

The river’s rushing current was making the situation especially dangerous, as the three men worked to save the weakened man from the water. A steep cement bank was also impeding the progress of the rescue, making it too difficult for the men to pull the victim to safety.

LeanVeyor Parts Cleaning Systems

Auto Parts cleaning

Ransohoff LeanVeyor systems are widely used in automotive applications, particularly for cleaning automotive gears.

For example, for the cleaning of ring and pinion gears, a manufacturer needed a solution for cleaning grinding swarf and oil at a rate of .55 milligrams per gear set for an axle with 70oz of fluid fill. The cleaning system needed to keep pace with a production rate of 72 sets per hour and incorporate a drying system to get the components completely dry. The company also needed a system with as small a footprint as possible.

The Ransohoff division of the Cleaning Technologies Group LLC, has introduced its Cell-U-Clean Mini Jet spray cabinet. This new small footprint platform provides an energy efficient, reliable solution for your high-volume cleaning needs, along with an innovative design for those smaller part cleaning applications.

The Ransohoff LeanJet RB-8 Immersion Cleaning System was recently featured online and in the print edition of Production Machining. Ransohoff’s rotary basket washer is touted as a productivity-enhancing solution to a cleaning process bottle-neck.

The application focus in the story was developed for Allfast Fastening Systems, part of California-based TriMas Aerospace. The company, which produces components and installation tooling for the aerospace industry, was in need of an efficient parts cleaning solution to replace a highly cumbersome and labor-intensive cleaning process. The operation in this application involved the manual cleaning of up to 5,000 parts per day.
