A nice way to seal the Deal..

Now we’re need a DIY parts list and construction 😊

interesting , unless you doing this to metal the thickness of kitchen foil i doubt it can be done safely in a hobby enviroment because of the obviously enormous load in the capasitors (guessing old transformator style welder loading the capacirors and a relay from hell switching that current through the coil ) , wonder how big the electromagnetic pulse would be ( might overload laptops and other electronics )

"low capital cost" compared to what? last time I checked a 32kJ pulse capacitor with a lifetime of 1000 shots at 80% rated voltage and 20% voltage reversal was like $10k A cap bank with long lifetime and with enough energy to do all this in a slightly larger scale probably costs like $50k and up, then you have to add the power supply, pulse forming network and safety devices, the work coils. So a magnetic pulse metal forming machine in the medium scale of things (frying pans) must cost like $100k and up. You have to use forming dies anyway so I don't see the real benefit in cost.

is that zpinch principle?

hey, can I get this ppt file ? i need it for my presentation at my college. I chose VFAW as a presentation topic.

Triggered Spark Gaps for magnetic pulse welding, forming, crimping ruclips.net/video/bn703BgV3gg/видео.html

cool vid corn head

Where to from here ? whats the next application ?

I am wondering how this shape are created with the Cylinder - ruclips.net/video/5inJ7sDndBI/видео.html

I can't believe that I've never heard of this technology and it's been around for decades! Very cool video thanks for sharing..

Very good. Who are the 20 sad sacs that downvote a vid like this?

THIS stuff is sci-fi tech. It would use a lot of energy, but imagine how quickly you could crank out parts compared to pressing & welding. Also doesn't need the same type of tooling.

Thank you for the video. Very good work. What is the peak value of current and what is the total capacitance of your charge storage setup?

This is the future of home canning.. my grammy would be proud

Wow this 1960's video looks new.

The same thing was already used while building the apollo rocket

This is awesome!!!

how is the current switched, is it a mechanical switch or solid state?

5:15 FIRE

I think that no one invented this process. I think it was discovered by accident. Then someone was like "Wait a minute, maybe I can do something with this." I kind of think a lot of stuff is "invented" that way.

Impressive

Wow , this is a very impressive technology.

The Slo-Mo Guys might be interested in filming this

Cool.

I believe there are some detonators that use this same principle. Bridge wire or r bridge foil dets I believe. Low ability to be mishandled so used for access annual applications on things you only wanna go boom if you've got the right code

Какое напряжение на конденсаторе? Отличное видео, даже если никто не ответит. Ого, сколько времени прошло %)

Bend radius thickness deformation calculated values will remain the same as other process ? Does speedy process need additional factors consideration?

Not sure why I watched this (I have nothing to do with any metal working of any sort) but it's awsome. I'm wondering though dose it matter how conductive the material is? Also dose it matter how big the piece is or dose it just depend on how much it had to move?

Have you heard of electrothermal guns. If you electrically heat aluminum in water the aluminum will burn and generate high pressure. Work was done at Maxwell on this years ago. Perhaps it could be used for metal forming.

That's an old Maxwell Magneform machine

Maxwell Technologies built impact welding for Hanford labs back in the early 80's. I worked there when that was going on. It was for making plugs to fuel rods for reactors.

That is a neat process, especially the hemming

So Cool! Thank you for posting!

That was cool.

you shouldn't be showing this on RUclips it's an industrial secret that's why America is being stolen around the world. their inventions are copied by several countries mainly china etc etc

What's the purpose of the air nozzle on the last one? Venting or removal?

One of the best videos I have seen to date. A practical application of fringe technology.

How is the visible flash generated at 5:25?

"It's amazing!"

Is that explosion welding? It looks like your using electricity to melt the two metals together. Is there even an explosion? It’s very cool and confusing.

Ryan, Could you provide detail on the forming working template? I am curious if the forming template had, after process occurs; any "residual" magnetic field.

Hi John, I've tried to reach the website, but it's not working...

you guys need to make A LOT more videos....in HD.....with a Chronos cam

I could watch another dozen of these

Nice video bro,do more videos like this.!

Dear ryan I need some help in this project can you help me making the circuit diagram of impulse generator

Why is it called "Coldwater"?

I'm glad to see your work continue.

Given the relatively small scales achievable vs explosive welding, what are the target applications. It's too time intensive for running lines of spot welds, are there mesoscale machining tasks where this would be of particular use? or is it primarily for metallurgy research?
