Blue Wave Ultrasonics Inc. manufactures heavy-duty ultrasonic cleaning systems and environmentally friendly detergents specifically designed to clean molds and tooling used in plastic molding and extrusion applications. These systems are said to create a powerful, microscopic scrubbing action which effectively removes outgassing residues, grease and rust from even the most intricate molding areas—including water lines—and eliminates the use of of hazardous solvents and surface damaging abrasives.
Eliminating the labor involved for time-intensive manual mold cleaning, Blue Wave says its ultrasonic cleaning systems often cut the time it takes to PM a tool by 50% or more. Additional benefits include shorter molding cycles due to cleaner water lines and improved heat transfer, longer time in the press with efficiently cleaned tooling and more press up-time with faster mold turns.
Manufactured in the U.S., Blue Wave guarantees long-term performance and reliability by utilizing exclusive magnetostrictive transducers. Further, the company contends that it is the only ultrasonic cleaning technology that can withstand heavier loads, longer cycle times and higher operating temperatures required to effectively clean tools.
