Ultrasonic steel surface cleaning technology is increasingly playing an important role in many different fields. The determination of the influence of the machining parameters on the amount of removed rust on the steel surface is important in the selection of these parameters to increase the machining productivity. In this study, we conducted tests to determine the influence of machining parameters on the amount of removed rust on the steel surface. Tests were performed according to Box-Behnken matrix in two cases: Acids are used or not used in cleaning solutions. In the absence of the use of acids, the selected parameters were the input parameters of the test including machine power, cleaning time and the distance from the steel surface to the ultrasonic head (referred to as the machining distance). Four parameters have been selected as the input parameters when using acids in the detergent solution, including machine power, machining distance, solution concentration and machining time. Finally, orientation for the next research has also been proposed in this paper.
