What's the principle of ultrasonic cutting?
The principle of an ultrasonic cutter is completely different from
conventional one. It uses the energy of ultrasonic to melt the
material to be cut. Therefore, the ultrasonic cutting does not
require a sharp cutting edge, nor does it require a large pressure,
and does not cause any chipping or breakage. At the same time,
since the cutting blade is subjected to ultrasonic vibration, the
frictional resistance is particularly small, and the material to be
cut is not easily adhered to the blade. This is particularly
effective for cutting viscous and elastic materials, frozen
materials such as food, rubber, etc., or objects that are
inconvenient to apply pressure.
The basic structure of the ultrasonic cutting machine is an
ultrasonic transducer, a horn, a cutting blade (tool head), and
generator. The ultrasonic generator converts the commercial power
into a high-frequency high-voltage alternating current and
transmits it to the ultrasonic transducer. An ultrasonic transducer
is actually equivalent to an energy conversion device that converts
input electrical energy into mechanical energy, ie, ultrasonic
waves. Its manifestation is that the transducer moves back and
forth in the longitudinal direction. The frequency of the
telescopic motion is equivalent to the frequency of the high
frequency alternating current supplied by the driving power source.
The role of the horn is to fix the entire ultrasonic vibration
system and to amplify the output amplitude of the transducer. The
cutting blade (tool head) further enlarges the amplitude on the one
hand and focuses the ultrasonic wave. On the other hand, the
ultrasonic wave is output, and the ultrasonic energy is
concentratedly input to the cutting portion of the material to be
cut by using a similar cutting edge of the cutting blade. Under the
action of huge ultrasonic energy, this part softens and melts
instantly, and the strength is greatly reduced. At this time, as
long as a small cutting force is applied, the purpose of cutting
the material can be achieved.
Ultrasonic food cutters are a type of equipment that uses
ultrasonic energy for cutting. It is characterized by cutting
without the cutting edge in the traditional sense.
We offer complete professional equipment and components for
ultrasonic food cutting. Compared with traditional cutting
machines, ultrasonic food cutters have more sanitary cutting,
shorter downtime, better cost-effectiveness, higher consistency of
cutting surfaces and longer blade life.
Ultrasonic cutting also has a great advantage in that it has a
fusion at the cutting point while cutting. The cutting site is
perfectly sealed to prevent loosening of the material being cut.
Ultrasonic food cutter features:
1. High cutting precision and constant material shape.
2. easy to apply to automated production.
3. the cutting surface has good finish and good bonding
performance.
4. fast, high efficiency, no pollution.
We have hand-held cutters and fully automatic cutters. The
hand-held cutter is small, beautiful in appearance and easy to
operate. It can be replaced with different specifications and
different material cutting knives to achieve the ideal cutting
equipment. The fully automatic cutting equipment is equipped with a
computer-controlled cutting head for the cutting of batches of
material.
This ultrasonic food cutter uses ultrasonic vibration to reduce the
frictional resistance between the blade and the food. It cuts the
blade smoothly, reduces food debris during the cutting process, and
increases productivity. It uses a vibrating handle that is simple
to operate and quiet and silent when cutting, without vibration.
This device vibrates at a high frequency of 40KHZ or 20KHZ. This
low friction allows the cutting blade to cut food smoothly, making
the cut surface of the food clean, beautiful and non-deformable.

Advantages
Clear and clean cutting surface
Small vibration allows to reduce the frictional resistance at
cutting surface, and allows the ultrasonic blade to cut the
products smoothly.
Reducing wastes of food and down time
Ultrasonic cutting prevents a mount of wastes of food during
cutting, so that means it reduces production cost. Also, it allows
to reduce down time to clean the production machines.
Sanitary production environment
The ultrasonic vibration prevent the food products from adherence
to the surface of the cutting blade, so the surface of the blade
keeps clean condition. The titanium blade is not oxidised, and has
high durability.
Easy to use with automated line
Ultrasonic food cutter is designed to use in the automated
production line. Also, it is easy to install the ultrasonic cutter
to the existed line.
Cosmo System provide not only the components of ultrasonic cutter
but also complete automation sytem.
Ultrasonic Components
Typical ultrasonic food cutting components include four major
elements: a power supply, a converter, a booster and a cutting
horn, as explained below.
1. Power supply
The ultrasonic power supply, also referred to as a generator, is an
electronic device that takes standard 50/60Hz AC line voltage and
converts it to high frequency electrical energy.
2. Converter
The ultrasonic converter is a sealed electro/mechanical device that
receives the 20kHz electrical energy from the power supply and
converts this electrical energy to high frequency mechanical
vibrations using PZT(piezoelectric) ceramic discs that expand and
contract within the converter housing.
3. Booster
The booster is a machined metal mechanical amplifier that will
either raise or lower the amplitude of the horn's mechanical motion
depending on the configuration of the masses machined at each end.
4. Cutting horn
The cutting horn, also referred to as a knife or a blade horn, is
the component that comes into contact with the product and does the
actual cutting. This horn is machined from titanium, has excellent
acoustic properties, good surface hardness and superior fatigue
value.
Our ultrasonic components and horns are designed for continuous
operation under the most demanding production environments. Welcome
customers to cooperate with us for a brilliant future!
