Title: Katrina Teo: Inventor of a Closed-Loop Composite Welding System.
Introduction
Katrina Teo is an inventor based in Seattle, Washington, and is associated with the University of Washington. Her work includes a patented system for controlling composite welding and bonding through radio-frequency heating and pressure.
Latest Patents
Teo is named on 1 patent: “Closed Loop Composite Welding and Bonding System Using Radio-Frequency and Pressure.” The system uses a heating element and actuator to apply electromagnetic energy and pressure to a workpiece. Sensors, including an infrared camera and pressure or displacement sensors, monitor conditions during bonding. A processor adjusts the heating and pressure controls based on the measured temperature, pressure, or actuator displacement, enabling closed-loop process control.
Career Highlights
Teo’s patent describes an approach to composite bonding that combines radio-frequency heating with sensor-based feedback. The system is designed to regulate the process as conditions change, supporting controlled heating and pressure application.
Collaborations
The patent’s listed collaborators include Aniruddh Vashisth and Santosh Devasia. Teo is associated with the University of Washington.
Conclusion
Katrina Teo’s patented system brings together radio-frequency heating, pressure application, and real-time feedback to control composite welding and bonding.
