The objective of this work is to perfect and extend the acoustic position technique that was developed at JPL for use in the future Space Processing Laboratory in Space. The main effort is centered on design of a position device for processing of molten materials. Namely, a resonator has the capability of positioning in an extreme temperature gradient and a frequency servo loop to maintain it there as the temperature varies.
