| Summary: | Creating systems for monitoring technology processes based on concentrated energy flows is an urgent and challenging task for automated production. Similar processes accompany such processing technologies: intensive thermal energy transfer to the substance, heating, development of the melting and evaporation or sublimation, ionization, and expansion of the released substance. It is accompanied by structural and phase rearrangements, local changes in volumes, chemical reactions that cause perturbations of the elastic medium, and the propagation of longitudinal and transverse waves in a wide frequency range. Vibrational energy propagates through the machine’s elastic system, making it possible to register vibrations on surfaces remotely. Vibration parameters can be used in monitoring systems to prevent negative phenomena during processing and to be a tool for understanding the processes’ kinetics. In some cases, it is the only source of information about the progress in the processing zone.
