CU18 Detailed Technical Manual

The CU18 is a magnetostrictive transducer that can supply vibrations up to 20 kHz. An internal thermal monitor protects the drive coil from overheating by limiting the current driven into the transducer. The transducer can be driven by any low impedance power amplifier including linear and switching power amplifier topographies.

The CU18 is a single phase electrical device that can accept electrical current from DC to 20 kHz and produces displacement from DC to 20 kHz. The displacement can be used for a variety of applications including micro positioning, ultrasonic driver for sonotrodes, and source for ultrasonic baths.

The CU18 will produce motion proportional to the input current waveform within the limits imposed by the dynamics of the load and impedance of the transducer. This capability provides a convenient method for users to produce a wide range of motion profiles simply by producing the commensurate waveform in current.
