Ultrasonic cleaning is a process that uses high-frequency sound waves, typically in the range of 20 kHz to 40 kHz, to agitate a fluid and create cavitation bubbles. These bubbles form and collapse rapidly, producing microscopic shock waves that dislodge contaminants, dirt, grease, and other impurities from surfaces of objects immersed in the cleaning solution.
