Component cleaning
We have a range of different processes to cover the cleaning requirements of our customers.
Process:
- Dipping
- Swiveling
- Ultrasonic
- Multi-chamber process
- Drying
Cleaning requirements
- De-oiling and degreasing before heat treatment
- De-oiling and degreasing before delivery
- Removal of dirt and chips
- Fulfillment of restrictive cleanliness requirements for the automotive industry
- Fulfillment of restrictive cleanliness requirements for the Medical industry
The effect of liquid cleaning processes is determined primarily by the solvent power of the cleaning agents used and by the process applied.
Contaminations must be removed and taken away.
To do this, we use:
- Hydrocarbons
- Modified alcohol
- Aqueous solutions
Technical cleanliness is set out in a nutshell down to the lowest level in VDA 19. Packaging in the clean room after the washing process minimizes contamination risks. This can be documented in the form of a residual dirt analysis.

Data sheet valid for metallic and non metallic particles. Fabers are regarded separately.
In individual cases are deviations possible (unfavorable part geometry, critical surfaces of wires etc.).
Deviations or *higher cleanliness requirements need special specifications.
