The growth of the aerospace industry is anticipated to drive the expansion of the ultrasonic cleaning equipment market. The aerospace sector, which encompasses the development and production of flight vehicles such as aircraft and spacecraft and their related systems, is experiencing growth due to increased air travel demand, driven by global economic advancement and rising disposable incomes. Ultrasonic cleaning equipment, such as large-capacity tanks, plays a crucial role in this industry by cleaning complex components such as turbine blades and engine parts, thereby improving the precision and reliability of aerospace components. For example, in November 2022, the Aerospace Industries Association reported that U.S. aerospace and defense (A&D) exports rose by 4.4% to $104.8 billion, with the U.S. exporting to 213 countries in 2022, up from 205 in 2021. Additionally, the trade balance for U.S. A&D exports versus imports was +$77.3 billion. Consequently, the expanding aerospace sector is fueling growth in the ultrasonic cleaning equipment market.

Key players in the ultrasonic cleaning equipment market are innovating with advanced ultrasonic lens cleaning systems to improve the precision of cleaning delicate optical components. These systems use ultrasonic waves to clean delicate surfaces, such as camera lenses and sensors, effectively removing contaminants without physical contact. For instance, in January 2023, Texas Instruments, a U.S.-based semiconductor company, introduced its first ultrasonic lens cleaning chipset. This chipset features two ultrasonic lens-cleaning integrated circuits (ICs) designed for self-cleaning cameras and sensors. The technology provides high-frequency ultrasonic waves for thorough cleaning and integrates with camera systems for real-time maintenance, enhancing lens clarity and sensor performance.

In March 2023, Getinge, a Sweden-based medical technology firm, acquired Ultra Clean Systems Inc. for $16 million. This acquisition is intended to bolster Getinge's capabilities in sterile reprocessing and expand its ultrasonic cleaning technology offerings. Ultra Clean Systems Inc., a U.S.-based manufacturer, specializes in ultrasonic cleaning systems, including small tabletop and large freestanding models, and this acquisition will enhance Getinge's service continuity in North America, particularly for complex surgical instruments used in robotic surgery.
