The vibration and electrical characteristics of transducer is determined by material coefficients and geometry, with material coefficients being susceptible to factors including frequency, pressure, and temperature, which leads to poor repeatability of transducer characteristics. Consequently, it is challenging to provide an accurate theoretical model to predict the characteristics based on the current material coefficients. To achieve a more accurate transducer model, a measurement method is proposed based on the mapping between material coefficients and transducer characteristic parameters to obtain accurate coefficients under working conditions with simple equipment and lower costs.

Broad-bandwidth transducers are one of the main areas of focus for the development of power ultrasonic systems, which address the issues that the contactless transformer system cannot track transducer frequency and narrowband transducers are not compatible with different tools. This paper aims to investigate the potential capabilities of broad-bandwidth transducers in terms of compatibility with different horns and to propose a design method for highly compatible tools. The frequency equation of horn is nondimensionalized to calculate relative frequency errors δ.
