Abstract:  
4.1 Process description A piezoelectric transducer emits ultrasonic waves at 20 kHz. The waves are amplified when they travel through an acoustic booster, in a housing which contains the parts to be treated and the shots (generally the balls of ball bearings). The dimensions of the vibrating parts allow vibration amplitudes of 50 to 200
