Non-conventional machining processes - ultrasonic machining

Cilj ovog završnog rada je ukratko uputiti čitatelja u nestandardne postupke obrade materijala, odnosno, konkretno govoreći u obradu materijala uporabom ultrazvuka. Tema je obrađena na način da je na početku pisano o značajkama te podjeli nestandardnih postupaka obrade. Nakon kraće opisanog povijesnog razvoja, iznesen je pregled tema kao što su svojstva ultrazvučnog vala, izvori i rasprostiranje ultrazvuka, kao i princip rada te najvažniji dijelovi ultrazvučne opreme. Ovaj rad donosi opis principa obrade odnošenja čestica materijala ultrazvukom, no i primjere korištenja ovog alata u raznim industrijama i granama ljudske djelatnosti.The aim of this thesis is to briefly introduce the reader to unconventional material processing procedures, that is, specifically to the processing of materials using ultrasound. The topic was treated in such a way that at the beginning, the features and the division of nonstandard processing procedures were introduced. Furthermore, after a brief description of the historical development, an overview of topics, such as the properties of the ultrasonic wave, sources and propagation of ultrasound, as well as the principle of operation and the most important parts of ultrasound equipment was explained. Finally, this thesis not only provides a description of the principles of processing the removal of material particles by ultrasound, but also gives examples of the use of this tool in various industries and branches of human activities
