Ultrasonic welders - Dukane Corp.

March 18, 2011
The welders are designed for medical applications.

iQ servo-controlled ultrasonic welding systems are for joining small or large plastic parts. Small-part systems use 30, 40, or 50-kHz ultrasonics and 600 to 1,800 watts. Larger-part systems oscillate at 15 or 20 kHz with 3,300 to 5,000 watts and higher clamping force.
All models use Melt-Match technology to control the collapse-speed profile during the weld and propagate ultrasonic waves deeper into the bond area for stronger, more repeatable bonds. Melt-Match works from the iQ-series digital power supply, which processes data at 0.5 ms. The welders meet FDA CFR Title 21 Part 11.
