Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0160534A1] The invention relates to a device and a method for the precision cleaning of the surfaces of objects (3) consisting of metal, ceramic or polymer. Said method consists of exposing the objects, which are displaced by a programmed movement, to the solvent effect of a stream of fluid which alternates between a liquid and a supercritical condition. Cavitation is produced by the action of ultrasonic waves that are generated by transducers located (6) in the external region of the cleaning chamber (1).
