The piezo-electric element in the ultrasonic fatigue tester generates a 1
vibration of 20 kHZ, which is amplified by the horn and transmitted to the
sample, to achieve oscillation rates of 20 kHz. This permits significantly
shorter test cycle times. 0.1

More Efficient Discovery of Inclusions
Confirming whether samples contain inclusions and the subsequent
analysis of any inclusion found is an effective way to ensure the supply of
Fatigue fracture from inclusion initiation point
materials with high fatigue strength. When an ultrasonic fatigue tester is
used to cause an internal fracture in the sample, the largest inclusion in
the volume of the portion that has a potential risk to fracture becomes the
initiation point of the fracture. Inclusions can be easily detected by
observing the fracture surfaces. This is a much more efficient method of
inclusion detection than conventional methods.
