RESEARCH

Since its development in Russia in 1972, Ultrasonic Impact Technology has been independently tested and researched by many universities and industry groups. This work has been extensive and has resulted in numerous papers being published regarding the technology and its benefits. 

 

This research, together with proven results, has resulted in industry acceptance of our UIT process and endorsement by our clients organizations.

 

Applied Ultrasonincs continues to carry out internal research and in addition works with government organisations, universities and industry groups on programs that will help expand the application and use of UIT in industry.
