Plastic & Metal Welding
Tooling:-
High Grade Aluminium; is an
excellent acoustic material from which to manufacture a
sonotrode. It is relatively inexpensive and easy to machine. Can
be anodised or hard anodised to reduce wear when welding lightly
filled materials, anodising also help prevent marking on white
materials. Not Recommended for; ultrasonic spot welding or riveting,
(very low volume of trials only) High gain applications and materials
with medium to high levels of filler.
High Grade Titanium; is an very
good acoustic material from which to manufacture a sonotrode. With
tungsten carbide coating of the welding face it show good life even
with high levels of fillers.
Tool Steel; suitable sonotrode
after hardening is ideal for thread inserting. With high internal
resistance its is only suitable for low to medium amplitude
application.
CPM Steel; suitable for the
manufacture of high amplitude sonotrodes. Can be precision harden up
to 64 Rc to give excellent wear resistance went high levels of fillers
are present in materials, Metal Welding.
Frequency of Tooling Manufactured:-
20KHz, 30KHz, 35KHz, 36KHz & 40KHz
For most manufactures equipment, i.e. Branson,
KLN, Rinco, Kerrys, Hurfurth, Duckane, Telsonic, Mecasonic etc.
Holding fixture; and it geometry
is used to position and support the mouldings being processed.
Fixture Materials; steel,
aluminium and cast resins >>Sensitive Mouldings can be further
protected by lining the fixture with materials such as cork, rubber
PTFE >>
Slides & Rotary Table Systems
