The Differences Between Magnetostrictive vs. Piezoelectric

Blue Wave Ultrasonics’ Magnetostrictive technology offers excellent guaranteed performance with an unbeatable lifetime warranty. There are two types of ultrasonic cleaning transducers used in the industry, piezoelectric and magnetostrictive.  Both have the same functional objective, but the two types have dramatically different performance characteristics. Piezoelectric transducers have an assembly that is inexpensive to manufacture due to low material and labor costs. For industrial cleaning, however, piezoelectric transducers have several shortcomings, the most common problem being that the performance of a piezoelectric unit deteriorates over time.  Magnetostrictive Transducers are known for their ruggedness and durability in industrial applications. With its long-standing innovation and reputation for the best industrial cleaners, Blue Wave Ultrasonics utilizes the finest in magnetostrictive transducers.
