Ultrasonic Cleaning for Suitable Alloy Wheels
This single-tank washer combines ultrasonic cleaning with a wheel-lifting arrangement. Ultrasonic energy produces cavitation in the cleaning liquid, helping loosen compatible contamination on the immersed surfaces. The result depends on the wheel finish, contamination, cleaning chemistry, temperature, and exposure time.
The technical data lists a 405 L tank, 900 × 500 × 900 mm internal dimensions, 3600 W ultrasonic power, and 5000 W heating power. It describes 72 transducers arranged on both sides and a choice of 28 kHz or 40 kHz. Confirm the selected frequency and the delivered equipment specification.
Check Wheel Size and Material Compatibility
The listed application is for a wheel, or a compatible wheel-and-tire assembly, up to a nominal 32 inches. Check the complete assembly width, outer diameter, weight, lift capacity, and tank clearance before ordering. Nominal rim size does not determine the full assembly envelope.
Identify bare alloy, paint, powder coating, plating, tires, valves, and other materials that will enter the bath. Select a low-foaming cleaning liquid compatible with the actual surfaces and contamination. Trial the agreed chemistry and operating conditions before processing valuable wheels.
Temperature and Cycle Settings
The listed timer range is 1–99 minutes, with a continuous-operation setting. Refer to the technical data for the temperature-control range and confirm the temperature scale and limits in the supplied specification. Controller settings are not recommended cleaning conditions for every wheel, tire, coating, or chemical.
Select the operating temperature and exposure time according to the cleaning-liquid instructions and the workpiece limits. A fixed two-minute cycle should not be assumed for every contamination level. Assess cleaning completeness and any effect on the surface during the trial.
Plan the Cleaning Sequence
- Remove loose mud or debris before introducing the wheel to the bath
- Prepare the approved cleaning liquid at the specified concentration
- Check the lift, load position, liquid level, and agreed operating settings
- Clean for the validated cycle using the supplied machine instructions
- Lift and drain the wheel, then rinse and dry as required
- Inspect the surface and manage bath contamination between loads
Agree the rinse-water quality and drying process for the material and any later coating operation. Ultrasonic washing removes suitable contamination; it does not substitute for polishing, repair, or a separate coating-removal process.
Electrical Supply and Installation
The data sheet lists a 220 V, 60 Hz, three-phase, 30 A arrangement and a 380 V, 50 Hz, three-phase, 18 A arrangement for different supply regions. Confirm the actual voltage, phase, frequency, current rating, protection, and connection requirements against the ordered machine and its nameplate.
Send wheel dimensions and weight, material and finish, contamination photographs, required output, available power, and floor-space limits. Discuss the lift arrangement, tank access, chemistry, rinsing, drainage, and sample-cleaning scope with Inovatec.
Common Questions

- Does the wheel still need preparation?
- Does this replace a general car wash?
- How does ultrasonic cleaning work?
- Will it clean every wheel in two minutes?
- How should the cleaning sequence be established?
When is ultrasonic cleaning useful?
It can be assessed when compatible contamination needs to be removed from immersed surfaces and recesses. Compare cleaning completeness, handling, chemistry, and time with the existing method.
Does the wheel still need preparation?
Remove loose mud and debris where required so they do not unnecessarily contaminate the bath. Identify coatings and materials before selecting the cleaning liquid.
Does this replace a general car wash?
This is a tank-cleaning process for a removed wheel or a compatible wheel-and-tire assembly. It is not a drive-through vehicle-washing system.
How does ultrasonic cleaning work?
Cavitation in the cleaning liquid helps loosen suitable contamination. The chemistry, temperature, exposure, and access of liquid to the surface determine the result.
Will it clean every wheel in two minutes?
A two-minute cycle is not a universal result. Validate the settings against the actual contamination and inspect for cleanliness and any effect on the finish.
How should the cleaning sequence be established?
Follow the supplied machine and chemical instructions. Validate preparation, bath conditions, loading, cleaning, rinsing, drying, and inspection for the actual wheel.
