English: The powerful shockwave effectively compacts the surface layer of the metal, typically reaching depth of 1 mm and more. This compression induces plastic deformations within the material, creating the beneficial compressive stresses that enhance performance. The result is a hardened surface to a depth of several millimetres; with an increase in compressive stress of approximately 400 MPa per application layer.
