Ultrasonic cutting of honeycomb material The honeycomb material is composed of nanometer, aluminum and composite materials. Due to its unique thin-walled and porous structure, it cannot be processed by conventional equipment, but ultrasonic-assisted processing is used. The ultrasonic auxiliary processing (cutting) system consists of 1. Ultrasonic generator and high-frequency wire, 2. Transducer, 3. Amplitude modulator (horn), 4. Cutter. The electric energy is converted into mechanical vibration (20Khz-40Khz) through the transducer, and the vibration amplitude is amplified by the amplitude modulator and transmitted to the cutter.

Ultrasonic cutting has many advantages: high-frequency vibration can prevent any adhesion and increase the cutting speed; the cutting thickness is up to 125mm, which can be continuously operated; compared with the cutter without ultrasonic vibration, the tool life is longer; the cutting quality is greatly improved because there is no high temperature The production will not cause the composite material to degrade; there is no material splashing and no dust. Common ultrasonic cutting tools are divided into two categories: the first is a hand-held manual operation tool; the second is a tool holder installed on CNC equipment or robot arms

In addition to the application of ultrasonic cutting in honeycomb material processing, it is also widely used in rubber cutting, composite material cutting and frozen food processing. The use of ultrasonic assisted technology solves the problem that traditional cutters are difficult to cut.
