Covaris Focused Ultrasonic Homogenizer
Focused Ultrasonic Generator
The focused ultrasonic generator efficiently and precisely delivers ultrasonic energy in a highly adjustable manner, enabling programmable control over the energy density of acoustic pulses transmitted to the sample. This modulation of acoustic properties allows for control over particle size and shape formation. With exceptional stability, the focused ultrasonic generator ensures reproducible formulation processes.
