WOKING, U.K. - eTradeWire -- Medical device cleaning using vapour degreasing with ultrasonics

Vapour degreasing is the perfect process for cleaning medical instruments, combining three powerful cleaning mechanisms in a self-contained, controlled environment. It uses non-flammable solvent vapour to dissolve contaminants, followed by solvent immersion and ultrasonic agitation, lifting microscopic particles from complex geometries, internal passages, and difficult to reach crevices, essential for cleaning medical instruments and implants.

Medical devices are complex assemblies of metals, ceramics, polymers and glass. During each phase of machining and finishing, various oils, lubricants, polishing compounds, and particulates are introduced, which must be thoroughly eliminated prior to assembly or sterilisation. Even trace impurities can affect device performance or compromise patient safety.
