STRESSONIC\u00ae peening process<\/h2>\n
SONATS, our sister company, created the STRESSONIC\u00ae peening process to improve the fatigue resistance of metal parts. It is a mechanical cold impact treatment of the surface of metallic components or structures.<\/p>\n
Surface treatment applications include shot peening (USP)<\/a>, ultrasonic needle straightening or peen forming (UPF)<\/a>, and weld impact treatment (UIT)<\/a>.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row gap=”35″][vc_column][vc_row_inner gap=”35″][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

STRESSONIC\u00ae PEENING PRINCIPLE<\/h3>\n
The generator digitally creates an ultrasonic range frequency (20 kHz) sine wave.<\/p>\n
A piezoelectric transmitter converts this wave into a low amplitude mechanical wave. This wave is then increased by a succession of boosters stages and by the sonotrode.<\/p>\n
The mechanical energy resulting from the vibration of the sonotrode is then transmitted to a free-motion media projected against the metal part to be treated.<\/p>\n
The media may be beads placed in a chamber (shot peening), or it may be needles\/impactors (straightening, impact treatment).<\/p>\n
Ultrasonic waves are not transmitted to the part to be treated.<\/p>\n
Depending on the operating conditions, the vibration amplitude of the sonotrode can range from 10 to 250 \u03bcm (peak-to-peak).[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1555080574399{border-top-width: 1px !important;border-right-width: 1px !important;border-bottom-width: 1px !important;border-left-width: 1px !important;border-left-color: #6f6e6e !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-right-color: #6f6e6e !important;border-right-style: solid !important;border-top-color: #6f6e6e !important;border-top-style: solid !important;border-bottom-color: #6f6e6e !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”15895″ img_size=”full “585520”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_video link=”https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=OuFhGKdsSxw” align=”center”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
STRESSONIC\u00ae PEENING ADVANTAGES<\/span><\/h3>\n

CONTROL<\/strong><\/h4>\n
All parameters of the mechanical impact treatment process and its environment are fully controlled.<\/p>\n
Ultrasonic signal<\/strong>: High precision digital generator.<\/p>\n
Media<\/strong>: The quality of the material is controlled. The mass is constant, as is the number of beads in the chamber.<\/p>\n
Kinetic energy:<\/strong> The amplitude and frequency control allows a very precise control of the kinetic energy of the media.<\/p>\n
Environment<\/strong>: The chamber defines the processing volume, and indirectly the media trajectory, thus ensuring that there is no variation among parts.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_icon icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-redo” color=”custom” size=”xl” align=”center” custom_color=”#cd5b1b”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”3\/4″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
REPRODUCIBILITY<\/strong><\/h4>\n
Reproducibility of the process is ensured, from one part to the next. The process is fully controlled and automated<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_icon icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-check” color=”custom” size=”xl” align=”center” custom_color=”#cd5b1b”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”3\/4″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
QUALITY<\/strong><\/h4>\n
Media:<\/strong> High quality materials, perfect geometry and perfect composition.<\/p>\n
Low<\/strong> roughness<\/strong> result compared to conventional shot peening processes. Improved tribological performance of some parts, particularly gears.<\/p>\n
Clean process<\/strong>, no dust or waste.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_icon icon_fontawesome=”fab fa-envira” color=”custom” size=”xl” align=”center” custom_color=”#cd5b1b”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”3\/4″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY<\/strong><\/h4>\n
Low energy consumption.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Low material consumption<\/strong> (a few grams, while conventional shot peening uses up to several hundred kilograms of media).<\/p>\n
Clean process creating no dust or waste, no subsequent cleaning operations.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_icon icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-umbrella” color=”custom” size=”xl” align=”center” custom_color=”#cd5b1b”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”3\/4″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
SAFETY<\/strong><\/h4>\n
No risk<\/strong> of damage to customer parts.<\/p>\n
No danger<\/strong> to the operator.<\/p>\n
Less risk of Musculoskeletal Disorders<\/strong> (MSDs) for operators.<\/p>\n
ATEX risk reduction<\/strong> (risk of dust explosion).[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
