Wire & Cable ASIA – September/October 2009 102
GEO-Reinigungstechnik has specia-
lised in the design, manufacture and
sale of continuous ultrasonic cleaning
equipment for wire, cable and strip
for over 15 years.
Among other available methods
for the surface treatment of wire-
or band-shaped endless profiles,
ultrasonic cleaning is recognised as
a highly efficient cleaning method
yielding excellent surface quality even
at high processing speeds.
GEO-Reinigungstechnik’s new ultra-
sonic tube chamber URS 1000 is
especially optimised for continuous
industrial profile cleaning.
Inside the tube, the cleaning fluid is
exposed to a high-intensive ultrasonic
field creating cavitation, or tiny vacuum
bubbles which implode in the fluid.
The concentration across the entire
tube cross-section and the distinctive
focus zone inside the tube causes an
intensive sonication which effectively
removes soap, grease, oil, emulsions
or crack residues inline.
The space-saving narrow design and
the inner diameter of the tube make the
unit suitable for multiple applications.
Hence the ultrasound modules are
used in GEO’s custom-made cleaning
and pickling equipment. Depending
on requirements the modules can be
arranged in row or parallel to increase
ultrasonic exposure and, therefore,
throughput. The ultrasonic unit is highly
efficient, low-maintenance and long
lasting due to the 3.6mm thick stainless
steel tube material AISI 316 Ti.
Ultrasonic wire cleaning modules
are generally incorporated in a com-
plete wire cleaning station including
cleaning solution management, rinsing,
and drying if required.
