Hello for all !
There is one theoretical and, could be, practical problem:
If the (30 Khz/50 W) magnetostrictive ultrasonic acuator oscillate 5 microns, and we want to increase amlitude to 1000 microns with steel sonotrode amplifier, what is the best way to do it ?
Suppose the diameter stepped snotrode amplifier have diameter ratio 2:1 (max. 4x amplification). Then, we could make 4 steps section with 4 steps of the sonotrode. If the calculation : 4x5 microns=20, 4x20=80, 4x80=320, 4x320=1280 microns ! Is it possible in practice ? Is there too much stress and loss ?
It could be very nice polich tool or kind of ultrasonc drill !?
