Gripper, Valve and Actuator Cleaning, Ultrasonic
Automation hardware is precision hardware: grippers, actuators, valve manifolds and sensors that drift or seize when contamination reaches them — and cells that cannot stop for manual cleaning.
Misonics systems clean automation components to precision standard, and integrate into automated cells as a cleaning station with PLC handshake — cleaning inside the process, not beside it.
What we remove in automation & robotics
Lubricant migration
Greases and oils spread onto grippers, rails and sensing faces.
Wear particulate
Fine metallic and polymer debris through moving assemblies.
Process residues
Coolants, dust and product residues carried into mechanisms.
Assembly soils
Fingerprints and shop contamination on precision fits.
Varnish films
Oxidised lubricant on pneumatic and hydraulic internals.
Real parts, real materials
End-of-arm tooling
Grippers, vacuum hardware, tool-changer components — clean fits and sealing faces.
Motion & actuation
Precision actuators, valve manifolds, pneumatic components — varnish and particulate out of internals.
In-line cleaning stations
Ultrasonic stations integrated into automated cells with PLC/robot handshake.
Cavitation cleans geometry it cannot see
Bubble collapse at the liquid–metal boundary lifts contamination from passages, galleries and cavities without anything touching the surface. Nothing abrades, nothing embeds, no metal is removed.
The VarioSonic G4 tracks the transducer array as temperature and load shift — conversion efficiency up to 95%.
Eliminates standing-wave hot and cold zones across a loaded basket.
Stored recipes and logged cycles — audit evidence produced as a by-product of running.
Multi-stage filtration and weir oil capture hold results steady as the bath loads.
Most faults identified — many resolved — without a site visit.
Heavy 316 stainless tanks, tested before despatch, every wearing part replaceable.
The machine follows the process
From manually loaded single-tank units to automated lines — and engineered systems where the catalogue ends.
Matched to the soil and the substrate
Precision components take low-residue formulations with clean rinsing — specified against your tolerance and material set in the trial.

What are you cleaning?
Tell us what the part is, what comes off it, and what it has to pass. Technical sales will tell you whether ultrasonics is the right answer for that part and what it takes to run it on your own floor.
What automation engineers ask us
Can a cleaning station sit inside our cell?
Is it gentle enough for precision fits?
What cycle time can we plan on?
Does it handle mixed materials?
