Steels as Materials for Sonotrode Tools

Article Preview

Abstract:

The investigation of suitable steels for sonotrode tool applications was performed. In this case in addition to good sonotrode properties (good transmission of ultrasonic energy, resistance to gigacycle fatigue) the material ought to meet also the tool properties (high hardness and wear resistance). The study was focused on tool steels, which are relatively cheaper than the currently best sonotrode tool material FerroTitanit cermet, and better than usual sonotrode materials AW 7075 aluminum alloy and titanium alloy Ti6Al4V. The suitability of steels for this purpose was evaluated by measuring the ultrasound energy transmission at a frequency of 30 kHz.
