Cavitation
• Cavitation is the sudden
formation and collapse of
low-pressure bubbles in
liquids by means of
mechanical forces.
• The bubbles release an
energy wave into the
surrounding liquid known
as a shockwave.
• Similar to ultrasound, but
mechanical instead of
acoustic. Video of clear version of

ShockWave Power™
How We Control Cavitation
• The Heart Of The Technology Is A
Specialized Rotor With Cavities.
• The Spinning Action Generates
Hydrodynamic Cavitation Within
The Cavities Away From The
Metal Surfaces.
• The Cavitation Is Controlled,
Therefore There Is No Damage.
