Ultrasonic cleaning flushes resin, powder and support material from lattices and internal channels.
Resin and powder
Printed parts can hold uncured resin, loose powder or support material inside lattices and channels. Cavitation flushes these structures more effectively than rinsing alone.
The media is selected for the material.
- Uncured resin
- Loose powder
- Support and soluble media
Lattice and channels
Lightweight lattices and internal channels trap material, so the parts must be oriented for flow and, where needed, given a rinse cycle.
Gentle settings protect thin structures.
Solvent or water
Resin prints commonly use compatible solvent in rated equipment, while other materials may use water-based media.
Flammable solvent requires sealed, rated machines.
Drying and post-processing
Drying and any curing or post-processing follow the material guidance, and the parts are inspected for trapped material.
A representative part sets the cycle.
Quick Answers
Frequently asked questions
Yes. Compatible solvent in a benchtop cleaner flushes uncured resin from lattices and channels, with material-specific times.
Very thin structures need gentle settings and shorter times, validated with a representative part.
The media follows the material; resin prints commonly use compatible solvent, while others use water-based cleaning.
