Power ultrasonics is...
- … a field of acoustics devoted to the science and technology of inaudible acoustic waves,
- … the generation, transmission and interaction of intense powers of ultrasonic waves (e.g. 10’s, 100’s, 1000’s W) to create changes in materials and processes,
- … an ultrasonic transducer – driven by an electronic power supply – generating high frequency (e.g. 20 kHz) waves that are transmitted – by solid, liquid or gaseous means – into a material or process – where the intense waves create change.
Examples of ‘change’ are ... forming parts, welding plastics and metals, drilling and cutting materials, cleaning surfaces,
