Consulting & Knowledge Transfer
Consulting on piezo and ultrasonic technology
More than 20 years of experience in the field of piezo and ultrasonic technology in various applications, coupled with in-depth specialist knowledge and creativity in finding solutions, form the basis of our advice on questions of ultrasonic technology. Our horizon ranges from miniaturized actuators for ultrasonic atomization to pulse-echo sensors for distance measurement to high-performance ultrasonic actuators for ultrasonic welding of plastics and metals or for generating cavitation.
We are happy to offer you consultation days to discuss and analyse your specific issues and to work out possible solutions. Our customers often succeed in critically questioning their own approach and developing new, efficient solutions.
Knowledge transfer and seminars
We offer our customers in-house seminars in the field of piezo and ultrasonic technology. In our one-day basic seminar we provide a well-founded overview of
- Basics of electromechanical vibration generation (converters, sonotrodes, medical handpieces),
- Development methods for ultrasonic tools and their electrical resonance control (ultrasonic generator)
- metrological methods for characterizing ultrasonic transducers
- Applications of ultrasound in industry (ultrasonic welding, cavitation processes), medical technology, automotive (distance sensors), …
In addition, we offer customer-specific seminars on specific questions or topics.
Feasibility tests using existing equipment
At ATHENA we have a large inventory of different converters and sonotrodes. For quick feasibility studies of innovative processes, it can be a useful way to modify these and thus quickly get to the first application tests.
We will be happy to advise you on how this can be achieved in your specific case.
