Ultrasonic Converter And Booster

Ultrasonic Convertor And Booster

1.What is a booster?

A booster is a one-half-wavelength long resonant section made of aluminum or titanium. It modifies the amplitude of vibration applied to the horn. 

2.Where is it located?

The booster is mounted between the converter and horn. 

3.How does it work?

To provide an amplitude change, the booster will have different diameters on either side of its center or nodal point. 

A smaller diameter at the end attached to the horns, means that the boosters is for amplitude increasing. 

A bigger diameter at the end attached to the horn means the booster is for amplitude decreasing.

Clamped at their nodal point, booster provides rigid support for the converter/horn assembly.
