Ogawa's movies "Reconstructing now"

You can watch some movies in this site. However too many interesting movies on welding and cutting are still not open at this moment, because of too heavy data size.

Recent ultra high speed movies and oldies

Detail explanation for my presentation "Consideration of Gas Tungsten Arc Behavior during Ignition Stage" at TWR2006 opens.

1) High speed movies(525kfps) at arc ignition stage. Video viewrate is 30fps, so time span enlarges about 14,000times.
2,3) Helium and Argon arc at 100kfps cleaning action of cathode surface at arc igniton stage.
4) Arc in air at 54kfps. Hot metal is very active for oxygen. Oxcidation reaction plays agressive.
5) Laser and hot wire hybrid welding at 200fps.

Ogawa Giken

President: Yoji Ogawa
He worked in AIST since 1974 to 2012.
Main research fields are underwater welding and cutting. These techniques requires autonomous mechanization.
So, research works on image processing and high-speed imageing is recent major targets.
