Aqueous Parts Cleaning Services

Jetsons Precision Cleaning, LLC is a provider of advanced parts cleaning services. We execute highly controlled aqueous parts cleaning to support rigorous manufacturing requirements across industries. Below, learn more about the mechanics of the aqueous process, its operational benefits, and strict parts cleaning for medical devices.

What Is Aqueous Parts Cleaning?

Aqueous parts cleaning replaces traditional chemical solvents with water-based detergent solutions that can safely break down surface contaminants. This method combines specialized chemical agents with mechanical force and elevated temperatures to achieve precise cleanliness levels.

Aqueous cleaning relies heavily on mechanical action. Our facility utilizes targeted spray systems and high-volume agitation to remove stubborn residues from parts. Following the wash cycle, the components undergo strict rinsing protocols using deionized or reverse osmosis water to prevent spotting. A final, controlled drying phase removes all residual moisture from metal surfaces.

Benefits of Aqueous Parts Cleaning

Transitioning from traditional solvents to aqueous solutions delivers distinct operational and regulatory advantages for manufacturers. The process can satisfy industry cleanliness standards while supporting environmental compliance mandates.

Effective Removal of Oils, Coolants, and Particulate

Aqueous cleaning targets organic and inorganic soils left behind during the manufacturing cycle. Surfactants lower the surface tension of the water, allowing the solution to penetrate tight crevices, blind holes, and intricate threading and lift away synthetic coolants, oils, metal shavings, and deposits. We can adjust the chemical formulation and cleaning protocols to remove specific residues and fluids.

Environmentally Responsible and Operator Safe

Regulatory bodies continue to restrict the use of traditional chlorinated and fluorinated solvents due to their severe environmental impact and worker health risks. Aqueous parts cleaning does not utilize hazardous volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the cleaning process. This water-based approach also avoids the need for expensive emission control scrubbers and reduces hazardous waste disposal costs.

Consistent Results for Precision Components

Jetsons processes components that demand exact, verifiable cleanliness levels. We handle a range of materials and superalloys, including aluminum, Hastelloy, Monel, and Inconel. We handle jobs ranging from small batches up to larger runs, accommodating parts up to 10 x 10 inches in size.

Aerospace, Medical, and Industrial Manufacturing

At Jetsons Precision Cleaning, we tailor our cleaning protocols to meet the stringent demands of high-precision industries, such as:

Aerospace. We can clean critical flight components, such as heat exchangers, hydraulic systems, injection pumps, and engine vanes.
Medical devices. We can execute rigorous parts cleaning for medical devices, processing sensitive equipment and dental implants prior to sterilization.
Semiconductors. We are able to clean conductors, wafers, and integrated circuits, along with various manufacturing equipment components, fixtures, and tooling.
Automotive. We can tailor processes to remove grease, carbon deposits, and oxidation from high-performance engine parts.

Pre-Assembly and Post-Machining Cleaning Requirements

Machining can leave behind cutting fluids, swarf, and metallic dust. These can interfere with secondary operations like welding, chemical plating, or precision measurement. Our aqueous process removes contaminants from metal parts without damaging or dimensionally changing the underlying base material.

We can also execute aqueous parts cleaning at the individual component level prior to final assembly. When used with manifolds, bolts, and mounting plates, this can prevent debris or residue that could otherwise impact the integrity of the final assembled unit.
