Ultrasonic Process Shapes Ceramics and Other Hard Materials

Abstract

PRECISE shapes can be machined into ceramics, glass and other hard materials by Mafell equipment. The process employed is US‐erosion, otherwise known as ultrasonic machining. Mafell Ultrasonics GmbH, a West German company, has devoted much development work to making the process a practical method of manufacturing, with many potential applications in industry.
