I hosted a webinar on January 26, 2024 on " Everything you need to know about designing and assembling power ultrasonic transducers " You can watch the recording on my YouTube Channel here: https://youtu.be/oAMjCGBXYms Here is a link to the pdf of the presentation notes: Webinar 24 - everything power transducers.pdf Summary In this webinar I gave a "catch-all" presentation on bolt-clamped ultrasonic power transducer. Specifically, I discussed: -How to design a power ultrasonic transducer (bolt-clamped) -How to assembly the transducer - How to test the transducer *** Announcement *** My next webinar will be on Friday, February 23, 2023 at 11AM EST. I will cover "How to determine to determine the requirements of your transducer application using an R&D electrical driver” (Topic will change based on LinkedIn poll to come) Here is the link to sign up for the upcoming webinar: https://www.ultrasonicadvisors.com/monthly-ultrasonic-webinar

I hosted a webinar on December 29, 2023 on " What happens to displacement at the antiresonance frequency of an ultrasonic transducer " You can watch the recording on my YouTube Channel here: https://youtu.be/Zj9fXkaEADw Here is a link to the pdf of the whiteboard notes: Webinar 23 antiresonance displacement.pdf Here is a link to the Waveforms workspace file: webinar23_wvforms_displacement.dwf3work Summary Using a laser doppler vibrometer, I demonstrate that the mechanical displacement is not affected by the antiresonance phenomenon of ultrasonic transducers. In this webinar, I show experiments and talk about theory. I also talk about mechanical antiresonance. *** Announcement *** My next webinar will be on Friday, January 5, 2023 at 11AM EST. I will cover "How to measure the accuracy and linearity of an laser doppler vibrometer for ultrasonic transducers” Here is the link to sign up for the upcoming webinar: https://www.ultrasonicadvisors.com/monthly-ultrasonic-webinar
