Innovasonic’s ultrasonic self-cleaning technology is expected to improve the efficiency of de-icing

Innovasonic has signed an agreement with Spike Aerospace to explore the use of its ultrasonic self-cleaning technology in the aerospace sector.

The technology is expected to improve the efficiency of deicing, wiperless windshield and cleaning touchscreens used in aircraft and other modes of transportation.

This agreement is based on Innovasonic’s PiezoWipe technology, which features an ultrasonic cleaning process, in addition to the company’s transparent piezoelectric transducers array design and fabrication technology.

According to Innovasonic, PiezoWipe could offer a full self-cleaning solution to remove dirt and deposits, as well as fog and ice on glass components, sensors and displays.

Compared to existing solutions such as wipers, robots and other self-cleaning coatings, PiezoWipe is anticipated to have enhanced reliability, efficiency and durability.

“This agreement demonstrates our interest in Innovasonic’s technology and capability to move forward with commercialisation efforts.”

Innovasonic founder and CEO Dr Boris Kobrin said: “Working with Spike Aerospace gives us an opportunity to develop and deploy our technology in one of the most innovative products on the aerospace market – supersonic jet, which could fly at the speeds twice of other jets.
