We show that a vibrating metal strip, mechanically driven by an ultrasonic transducer, can rotate a cluster of small particles around a fixed point, and the diameter of the cluster of small particles can reach a stable value (steady diameter) for a given driving condition. The rotation is very stable when the vibration of the metal strip is appropriate. The revolution speed, its direction, and steady diameter of the particle cluster can be controlled by the operating frequency of the ultrasonic transducer. For shrimp eggs, a revolution speed up to 360 rpm can be obtained. (c) 2008 American Institute of Physics.
