Mechanical cleaning
Besides further developed cleaning
by brushes, blowing and exhausting, vibration cleaning has
been established as a promising new type of cleaning:
It only needs very little energy input to accelerate even big masses and thus
overcome the adhesive forces of dirts at their surfaces. The dirts gather at
the oscillation knots and can be exhausted by positioned nozzles. From there
they are usually led into a special container and can be reused e.g. in case
of cooling lubricants. This methods needs only very short cleaning cycles of
ca. 10 s.
Vibration cleaning is well suited for rotation symmetric components without hollow spaces like cog wheels, bearings, crank shafts, gear shafts or bushings. According to the inventor the method can also be applied to more complex but approximately cubic parts (like engine blocks) and it can achieve high degrees of cleanliness.
Conventional vibration cleaning should not be mixed up with this method as it applies additionally abrasive media.
