The Ultrasonic System Research Institute has developed technology to control resonance and nonlinear phenomena in the propagation state of surface acoustic waves through the control of ultrasonic oscillation, using a combination of low and high frequencies. By utilizing new ultrasonic propagation materials (such as stainless steel wire and titanium straws), efficient ultrasonic applications tailored to specific purposes become possible. Through the measurement and analysis of sound pressure data from ultrasonic testers, this system technology controls the complex changes in surface acoustic waves according to the intended use. Practically, by using multiple (two types of) ultrasonic probes to generate multiple (two types of) oscillations (sweep oscillation and pulse oscillation), complex vibration phenomena (original nonlinear resonance phenomena) are created, achieving high-frequency propagation states at high sound pressure or low-frequency propagation states tailored to the desired natural frequency. In particular, by optimizing the vibration characteristics of tanks and pumps with megahertz ultrasound, efficient ultrasonic control is realized (propagating through 3000 liters of cleaning solution at a 30W output).

The Ultrasonic System Research Institute has developed ultrasonic system technology that enables control of ultrasonic propagation states from 1 to 100 MHz by utilizing a megahertz ultrasonic oscillation control probe for ultrasonic equipment. This is a new application technology based on the measurement, analysis, evaluation, and techniques of ultrasonic propagation states, applicable to precision cleaning, processing, stirring, welding, plating, and more. By utilizing the acoustic properties (surface elastic waves) of various materials, ultrasonic stimulation of several tons of objects can be controlled with an ultrasonic output of less than 20W, even in a 1000-liter water tank. It was developed as an application method for nonlinear phenomena through an engineering (experimental and technical) perspective on elastic wave phenomena and an abstract algebraic ultrasonic model. The key point is the use of tools (elastic bodies: metal, glass, resin). By confirming the ultrasonic propagation characteristics depending on the conditions of the target object, it is important to address it as an original nonlinear resonance phenomenon (Note 1). Note 1: Original Nonlinear Resonance Phenomenon This occurs due to the generation of harmonics resulting from original oscillation control, which is realized at high amplitudes through resonance phenomena, leading to the resonance phenomenon of ultrasonic vibrations.

We provide consulting services for the development of ultrasonic systems utilizing the following device. <<Deaeration Fine Bubble (Microbubble) Generation Liquid Circulation Device>> 1) By narrowing the suction side of the pump, cavitation is generated. 2) Cavitation causes bubbles of dissolved gases to form. The above describes the state of the deaeration liquid circulation device. 3) When the concentration of dissolved gases decreases, the bubble size of dissolved gases due to cavitation becomes smaller. 4) Through appropriate liquid circulation, fine bubbles (microbubbles) of less than 20μ are generated. The above describes the state of the deaeration microbubble generation liquid circulation device. 5) When ultrasonic waves are applied to the above-mentioned deaeration fine bubble (microbubble) generation liquid circulation device, the ultrasonic waves disperse and crush the fine bubbles (microbubbles), and when measuring the fine bubbles (microbubbles), the distribution of ultra-fine bubbles becomes greater than that of fine bubbles. The above state indicates that ultrasonic waves can be stably controlled.
