Ultrasonic Levitation – Applications

Abstract

To report the application of an acoustic ultra-sonic levitation system. The sample of less than one half wavelength of the excitation frequency are levitated without contact, just below the pressure nodes. The transducer is excited by an ultrasonic signal through a voltage amplifier. This acoustic ultra-sonic levitation finds its place to an advanced biotechnological system in conditions like container free processing, non-contact handling, and dynamic control of objects especially in pharmaceutical where precision and purity is important. Industrially very useful in multi material and 3D imaging. Most importantly in the field of medicine where unknown diseases are cropping up with graft or transplantation being the only option and in tissue cultures, in both cases the concept of contamination being the highest criteria. The most recent application to quote is the next level of transportation, post disaster management, material study in space. Levitation allows contact less grafting and inoculation. This acoustic ultrasonic levitation for giving and saving lives.
