"International Master Lecture Seriesâ€"Professor Hidetoshi Yokoi" opens a Pandora's Box
...
Hidetoshi Yokoi is a professor of University of Tokyo.
His study field includes: machine engineering, electric and electronic engineering, and material engineering ... etc. In addition, his current study themes are ultra high speed and thin wall injection, visualization analyses of injection molding, and experimental analyses of IC packaging Pr.
In year 2000, he published "Development of measurement system for due-pad behavior in IC encapsulation process using hall elements" and related articles on IEEE Transactions on Advanced Packaging.
Professor Yokoi is also the director of "Yokoi Lab," which has been cooperating with well known companies such as Panasonic, Toshiba, Mitsubishi, Toyota, and 3M.

According to professor Yokoi, the emergence of ultra-high speed video camera capable of shooting one million frames per second in full frame now enables the visualization of mysterious molding phenomena.
In Yokoi's lecture, he shared his first attempt to directly visualize the jetting phenomena inside a sprue, which causes blisters in the LCP molded products after soldering process.
Moreover, unique gate flow behaviors were also visualized at the ultra-high-speed injection conditions, not only in the case of the molding with LCP using an obstacle-pin cavity, but also in the case of the jetting and bounding phenomena of the injected PS melts after the submarine gate.
Followed by the lecture was an open forum that provided a great opportunity for an intellectual exchange between professor Yokoi and the audience.
Yokoi answered each question patiently, relating his research topics with practical problems.
