I need some ideas on a decent ultrasonic cleaning machine. I don't need top of the line, just something that will stand the test of time.
price range of four to five hundred dollars.
Thank You in advance
Terry
I've been very happy with it, but it's for personal use, and although it gets used pretty often, it isn't as though it was equipment for a shop. But Kendal makes a commercial version, which is about $275.
I've got both a smallish lab-type unit, and one of the $50 plastic jewelry models off eBay. So far as I can tell, the cheapo works just as well as the industrial unit. Absent any way to objectively compare them, that may just mean it doesn't take much to clean scale and verdigris. It has a smaller chamber and lacks a heating function, neither of which has been a hindrance so far. It's easier to store and move around. Both work fast with a little vinegar or HCl.
After comparing the one that TSandM posted to the Harbor Freight one, I think that they are the same one just branded differently. If they are it could be had for less if you have a %20 off coupon.
Herman; I think I remember you mentioning that your cleaner is big enough for the cans of a double-hose regulator. If so, what size do you have.
Thanks,
Henrik
I have the larger one they had at the time, not sure if the larger one they still have is big enough but the older "large" size would easily hold one can of a DH reg plus the rest of the parts.
