Anyone ever build PZT-8 and aluminum transducers?

Just curious, never ran across anyone that manufactured transducers.
I Worked with a guy that bonded transducers for our ultrasonic product.

Yes. Also, there are plenty of outfits that manufacture various types of
piezoelectric transducers. In the unlikely event that you are actualloy
interested, just do a Google search for piezoelectric transducers.
Have a nice day.

Not sure why you come across with an attitude, but I ask because I am
interested.
This is physics.acoustics, I worked with a physicist that specialized
in acoustics, we built a high power high frequency amp/transducer for
experimentation with ultrasound in viscous material.
Our basic unit operated at 660 kHZ and developed 1000 watts pulsed or
250 watts continuous.
I can't locate my data, but I recall the PZT-8 was 2" dia. and 1/16"
thick, bonded to a 4" dia. x 1/16" aluminum plate mounted to an aluminum
cup with an air cavity.
Interesting job back in the 90s.

been with out internet service for about 9 weeks.

Your posting history demonstrates that you're the one with "attitude".
Fool me once....shame on you. Fool me twice....shame on me.

You said you have built, but apparently you have no interest in any
discussion, so you send me to google.
I'm not sure why you are here if you don't want to discuss.
Are one of those people that wants to keep what you know about
transducers a secret?
Rereading my question, I did leave it pretty open ended, I didn't
want to hear from a company, I want to hear from the person that did
calculations and physically built the transducer.
What frequency transducers did you build?
What kind of epoxy did you use? Did you bond under pressure? H Did you
cure with heat?
