New ultrasonic dynamic control technology

The Ultrasonic System Research Institute has developed a completely new dynamic control technology for ultrasound using two function generators. This technology enables the control of ultrasonic nonlinear phenomena and resonance phenomena through different types of (sweep) oscillation using two different waveforms. By applying this technology, we are developing practical methods to relieve surface residual stress in components and various application technologies, and we provide consulting services. Standard settings: 1) Sweep oscillation control from 3 MHz to 20 MHz 2) Sweep oscillation control from 60 kHz to 13 MHz 3) Ultrasonic dynamic control using a 42 kHz 35W ultrasonic cleaner (realizing dynamic fluctuation-type ultrasonic propagation control) Note: Regarding the surface of the ultrasonic cleaner's tank, surface residual stress relief and uniform treatment are performed using an ultrasonic oscillation control probe and a degassing fine bubble generation liquid circulation device. As a result of the uniformization effect, ultrasonic control using harmonics above 200 MHz has been achieved.

Leading to new applications of ultrasound from sound pressure and vibration data of ultrasound.

Application of ultrasonic sound pressure measurement, analysis, and evaluation technology The Ultrasonic System Research Institute has developed a method for the analysis and evaluation of ultrasound (system technology) that applies measurement, analysis, and control technology related to the nonlinearity of ultrasound. Using this technology, we will provide measurement, analysis, and evaluation support for ultrasonic devices. For specific support and costs, please contact us via email. *Comment* Currently, regarding the use of ultrasound, I believe it is very difficult to detect and confirm the optimal ultrasonic state for the intended purpose. Therefore, by incorporating "sound pressure data" into the daily management of ultrasound, we aim to resolve the relationship with the final evaluation state (defect rate, yield, etc.) through the accumulation and analysis of statistical data. By analyzing using time-series data analysis technology, effective improvements have been realized. As a result of continuing such improvements, the number of successful cases using low-output ultrasonic oscillation control has increased. We have been manufacturing and selling our original product: ultrasonic systems (sound pressure measurement analysis, oscillation control) since March 2021.

Dynamic control of ultrasound to achieve stress relaxation on metal surfaces.

The Ultrasonic System Research Institute has developed a completely new dynamic control technology for ultrasound by utilizing two function generators. By generating oscillations with two different waveforms (sweep), we have achieved a technique to control the nonlinear phenomena of ultrasound. Note: The generation of (10th order and higher) harmonics caused by original oscillation control is realized by resonating with low-frequency vibration phenomena, resulting in the generation of high-amplitude harmonics, which is a nonlinear (resonance) phenomenon of ultrasonic vibrations. By optimizing the ultrasonic propagation characteristics of various components according to their intended purpose, efficient ultrasonic oscillation control becomes possible. Through the measurement and analysis of sound pressure data from ultrasonic testers, this system technology allows for the dynamic control of surface elastic wave changes according to the intended application. Practically, multiple (two types of) ultrasonic probes generate multiple (two types of) oscillations (sweep oscillation, pulse oscillation), which create complex vibration phenomena (original nonlinear resonance phenomena), achieving high sound pressure propagation states at high frequencies or low sound pressure levels at frequencies matched to the desired natural frequency.
