Agitation and cleaning

Question:
What important parameters need to be considered when selecting a cleaning method and detergent?

Answer:
Time constraints and volume of parts being cleaned affect choice of cleaning method and with it detergent. When a large number of parts must be cleaned quickly, then a fast, high-agitation method, such as spray washing, with an aggressive cleaner is preferable. Likewise, when cleaning fewer parts or batch-continuous quantities of smaller batches rather than the large quantities from continuous manufacturing of parts, ultrasonic soak cleaning with a milder cleaner is more appropriate for the wetting and emulsifying mechanisms.
