What is ultrasonic welding?

How does ultrasonic welding work?
First, an ultrasonic generator produces an electric current with an approximate tension of 1000V, a frequency of 20, 30, 35 or 40 kHz, and a 1A intensity.

Then, the generator delivers the electric current through an ultrasonic cable until a ceramic made converter. The ceramics vibrate at the chosen frequency (20, 30, 35 or 40 kHz) and generate a few microns amplitude.

The converter then generates positive and negative vibrations and transforms the electric current into mechanic energy.
Afterwards, a sonotrode in steel or titanium which is connected to the mechanic association vibrates at the imposed amplitude. For instance:
- For 20 kHz, the sonotrode generates a 20 to 25 microns amplitude
- For 30 kHz, a 15 to 16 microns amplitude
- For 40 kHz, an 8 microns amplitude

The active face of the sonotrode realizes a hammering while an anvil faces it (or a drum for rotary ultrasonic). The product then passes between the anvil and the active face of the sonotrode, rises in temperature and melts, what generates cut or welding according to the machine.

Are there multiple types of ultrasonic welding?
At Cera Engineering, ultrasonic welding can be two types:
- Static welding (intermittence welding)
- Continuous welding (rotary welding)

When designing our new gloves machine, our goal was to provide a machine with the highest performance in assembling gloves thanks to our know-how in installing sonics into production machines.

Producing up to 48,000 pieces per hour through a 60 meters per minute line speed, gloves machine allows to manufacture in quantity high quality gloves, certified for medical, hospitals, clinics, nurseries, maternity homes, retirement homes…

These gloves are generally used for body wash (Non-woven, Single use).

Through its new design and high technology, the gloves machine automatically assembles gloves in four operations, and controls production parameters to assure the highest reliability of bouffant caps.

While working with our gloves machine, take all the advantages of fully automatic process in terms of performance and reliability.

When designing our new bouffant cap making machine, our goal was to provide a machine with the highest performance in assembling bouffant caps thanks to our know-how in installing sonics into production machines.

Producing up to 12 000 pieces per hour through a 100 meters per minute line speed, our bouffant cap making machine allows to manufacture in quantity high quality bouffant caps, certified for medical, hospital, pharmaceutical or food-processing, cosmetics, electronics …

Through its new design and high technology, the bouffant cap making machine automatically assembles bouffant caps in four operations, and controls production parameters to assure the highest reliability of bouffant caps.

While working with our bouffant cap making machine, take all the advantages of fully automatic process in terms of performance and reliability. 

Continuous assembling process? No stop of the web during the assembling process.
How can it be integrated? The ultrasonic continuous assembling process is implemented on stand alone machines or can be integrated in any existing machine to replace glue, hot melt, or mechanical gripping.
What about speed? The working speed can vary from 0 to 350 m /min depending on the fabric and type of welding to be reached.
