Cost-effective polymer jointing
As well as offering solutions for more traditional assembly and jointing techniques, ALPHR Technology can offer the integration of an ultrasonic welding machine for the joining of a range of polymers into its bespoke automated assembly and test solutions.
Working in collaboration with industry-leading manufacturers of ultrasonic welding systems, such as Branson and Telsonic, we ensure the right hardware is deployed for your project.
The advantages of ultrasonic welding include:
- Weld quality – creates a clean and sanitary joint with a hermetic seal
- Durability – parts joined on a molecular level
- Reduced production costs – no additional fillers, adhesives or fasteners required
- Fast cycle times – no drying or during time required
- Ease of integration – an ultrasonic metal welding machine can be integrated into manual, semi-automatic and fully automatic systems
- Low thermal impact on materials – no thermal distortion created
Ultrasonic Welding Applications
Ultrasonic welding applications include:
- Automotive
- Aerospace
- Consumer goods
- Electronics
- Medical
- Packaging
ALPHR Technology follows a number of fundamental design criteria for achieving a strong molecular bond between the two polymer sections to be joined, and is able to create a fixturing solution to engage with the welding system sonotrode. This results in excellent weld-to-weld uniformity and minimal scrap rates due to the highly repeatable nature of this welding process.
