In selecting a parts cleaning and/or finishing system, it is important to consider the size, shape, configuration of the parts and production rates. Each characteristic requires different considerations in process equipment design and selection.   Blind holes, part internal passages, and irregular shaping can pose special problems, independent of the contaminant & particulate to be removed or the chemical cleaner to be used. All of these physical variables need to be considered when developing a solution to a customer application.
