Abstract
A tool for mechanical surface treatment includes a housing, a roller body, and a resonator. The housing has a cavity for filling with a hydraulic medium having a basic pressure. The roller body is for rolling on a workpiece surface to be treated and is exposed to the basic pressure of the hydraulic medium. The resonator is arranged for generating targeted pressure pulses in the hydraulic medium. In some example embodiments, the housing has a tubular body with a tip and the roller body is arranged at the tip. In an example embodiment, the roller body is a sphere. In an example embodiment, the tool includes a seal for sealing the roller body to the tubular body.
