As the Sales Manager here at HK Technologies, I run across many unique and challenging screening applications on a weekly basis. While this is my first post and I have a lot of interesting applications to discuss, I want to begin with a recent application where a customer was using ultrasonic sieving to screen a high-value ceramic powder used in the electronics industry.  The screen mesh was fairly coarse – 80 mesh. The ceramic powder was agglomerating and forming hard nodules of ceramic material from the current supplier’s ultrasonic system. The customer could not tolerate these hard nodules contaminating the final product. They approached us for a solution.
