What is a Piezo Atomizer?
Piezo atomizers are small devices that use piezoelectric transducers to convert electrical energy into high-frequency mechanical vibrations. These vibrations create a mist of tiny droplets, making piezo atomizers useful in a wide range of applications, from humidifiers to medical inhalers.
At Piezo Direct, we specialize in producing high-quality piezoelectric products, including piezo atomizers.
How does a Piezo Atomizer work?
Piezo atomizers work by applying an alternating electrical current to a piezoelectric transducer, which causes it to vibrate at ultrasonic frequencies. This vibration is then transferred to a liquid, which breaks up into a fine mist of droplets. The size of the droplets can be controlled by the hole sizes on the mesh and by adjusting the frequency and amplitude of the vibrations.
What is a Piezo Atomizer Used for?
Piezo atomizers are used in a variety of applications, including:
- Humidifiers and air purifiers
- Medical inhalers and nebulizers
- Flavor and fragrance atomizers
- Fuel injectors
- Cooling systems
- Dust suppression
In these applications, piezo atomizers offer a number of advantages over other types of atomizers. They are more energy-efficient, produce smaller droplets, and can operate at higher frequencies, making them ideal for creating a fine mist.
How is a Piezo Atomizer Made?
Piezo atomizers are made using piezoelectric ceramics, which are materials that can convert electrical energy into mechanical energy. At Piezo Direct, we manufacture our own piezoelectric ceramics rings, which allows us to control the quality of our products from start to finish.
The process of making a piezo atomizer begins with the piezoelectric ceramic ring, which is bonded to a metal plate. When an electrical current is applied to the ceramic ring, it vibrates at a high frequency, causing the metal plate to vibrate as well. This vibration is then transferred to a liquid, which is atomized into a fine mist.
Conclusion
Piezo atomizers are small, powerful devices that are used in a wide range of applications. As a leading piezo ceramic manufacturer, Piezo Direct specializes in producing high-quality piezoelectric products, including piezo transducers and piezo elements that are used to create piezo atomizers.
