Look, Ma, No Hands!

December 20th, 2011 by Frank Pedeflous

Have you ever tried to impress your friends? Try doing something with no hands! Have you ever tried to really impress your potential or existing clients? Show them how you can lower their cleaning costs… with no hands!

But how can you clean something ultrasonically with no hands? Ultrasonic technology already significantly reduces the number of employees and labor time required to clean dirty industrial parts. We thought, “Why not take it a step further and help our clients lower cleaning expenses even more?”

Our latest product, the Autosonic Q1, cleans, rinses and air-dries without any operator assistance whatsoever. Think of it as your new employee that human resources doesn’t have to fill out any papers for! Did we mention this employee never eats or sleeps? It is just a cleaning, rinsing and drying machine… literally!

The Autosonic Q1 will drastically reduce manual hand cleaning labor costs by up to 80% and “hands-on” ultrasonic cleaning costs by 15%. The Q1 delivers a proven automatic workstation that enhances the workflow and provides manufacturers with a piece of equipment that dramatically increases production and profitability.

Unfortunately, this machine isn’t equipped with “Siri” and it cannot talk to you and tell you the status of a cleaning cycle. But if you want to check the status of your current wash, it is as simple as reading a traffic light.

There actually is a green, yellow and red light that lights up allowing you quickly detect what stage the product is in. Along with high precision ultrasonic cleaning, the blow-off nozzles inside the Q1 remove excess moisture to speed the drying process.

Want more information about the Omegasonics Autosonic Q1? Feel free to contact us toll free at (800) 669-8227, or visit our website at www.Omegasonics.com to learn more about ultrasonic cleaning!

We, at Omegasonics, want to be the first company that comes to mind when you think about quality ultrasonic and contents restoration equipment. It is truly an honor to serve you.

How a restoration pro earned $1000 in an hour for her company…

June 22nd, 2011 by Frank Pedeflous

When State Restoration called to ask if they could try out a Restoration Pro by Omegasonics® to see how it would handle a contents job, we said, “Sure, send us your crew and we will set them up.”

So Eileen Zark brought over her crew and five palates from a job she was already doing. We gave them about 30 minutes of training, then we stood back to watch the fun…

The contents pros did just what we showed them and they cut through the job like a hot knife through butter. “Amazing…” she said. The workers were having a blast and she confided that she had been doing contents work for about 8 years — the last 4 of which were really wearing her down…but this was totally different! Hey — who wouldn’t be bummed out by cleaning things with Q-tips, toothbrushes and rags?

So how did Eileen and her crew do?

Well, they used to clean about a box per person, per hour. Xactimate pays around $30 to $40 per box. And we asked, “Eileen, about how many boxes did you get done in an hour with Omegasonics Restoration Pro®?”

She said, “About 20 to 25 boxes…,” Depending on where you are in the country, and judging by the Xactimate numbers, you already know that makes it as much as $1000 in just one hour! Imagine what she could do in a day (actually she did all five palates in just 2 days)!

Go Green with Ultrasonic Cleaning

April 5th, 2011 by Frank Pedeflous

Ultrasonic cleaners are quicker and better than manual cleaning methods, and do not use harsh or harmful chemicals. Ultrasonic cleaning provides faster, safer and more thorough results than toxic solvents ever could. Many cleaning solvents such as carburetor cleaner, brake cleaner, MEK or petroleum-based solvents have been outlawed due to their detrimental effects on people and the environment. Many still remaining are toxic to a lesser degree. Using water-based soaps may not always give you the same cleaning power as the old solvents. They need some type of mechanical help such as ultrasound. High frequency ultrasonic scrubbing action combined with the proper water-based cleaning soap provides a faster, safer, more thorough result than solvents could ever deliver.

Ultrasonic Cleaning is:

(1) Safer for you and your employees;

(2) More forgiving to the environment;

(3) More automatic, thorough and consistent than manual cleaning;

(4) An eliminator of expensive,  time consuming labor;

(5) More cost effective for cleaning precision parts and can give you a competitive advantage in today’s global economy.

In a nutshell, ultrasonic cleaning is better for your workers, the environment, and your wallet.
