It is an exceptionally fast, effective, precise and repeatable method of joining plastics without the need for additional bonding materials or adhesives. It allows for obtaining clean, strong and tight connections thanks to local heat emission only in the joining area and does not expose the components to damage due to excessive pressure. Using ultrasound, it is also possible to join thermoplastic materials with others (e.g. metals, wood), shape forming, riveting or processing nonwovens with rotary tools (including their joining, cutting or applying patterns).
Dukane’s offer includes:
- The most modern servo-driven welders from the Infinity™ series equipped with our own, patented Melt-Match® technology: https://www.dukane.com/products/ultrasonic-products/ultrasonic-welders/infinity-with-melt-match
The Infinity Series is the result of Dukane’s over 50 years of experience in ultrasonic welding – the most advanced and precise, yet compact and versatile servo welders offered in several variants, with a complete work table or as Thruster systems for simple integration.
Take full control of every step of your ultrasonic welding process with the Infinity™ Ultrasonic Welding System with Melt-Match®. It provides accuracy, reliability and easy replication of proven processes for faster, more cost-effective production. Using the Melt-Detect™ feature, you can avoid distortion of the energy heads during the welding process, achieve uniform melting and a hermetic seal. Melt-Match® parameters control the welding process “on the go” with real-time closed-loop force control in addition to real-time speed control. Weld force and speed can be programmed in 10 independent segments to match the flow rate of the material.
We leave no room for error in the ultrasonic welding process. With the Infinity™ series machines, you gain the control and flexibility to program and implement the welding process needed for maximum efficiency and effectiveness.
- Powerful P220 pneumatic welders with advanced process monitoring features:
https://www.dukane.com/products/ultrasonic-products/ultrasonic-welders/p220-ultrasonic-welder
Pneumatic ultrasonic welding machines P220 offer intuitive process control, robust mechanical design and multiple advanced weld modes for unmatched precision and repeatable weld quality. Advanced process triggering methods include our patented programmable power trigger and force trigger, eliminating any mechanical adjustments, significantly improving process accuracy and repeatability. Simplicity of operation and robust design ensure consistent and reliable weld results every time. The machine monitors weld positions (start, weld, hold), power, energy and other parameters with programmable tolerances for suspect/bad welds to monitor weld quality and consistency during operation.
- Components for integration into automated lines:
https://www.dukane.com/products/ultrasonic-products/automation-ready-ultrasonic-welding
The Dukane portfolio includes several series of modern ultrasonic generators that guarantee maximum flexibility thanks to the possibility of welding in many modes (path, energy, peak power, time or continuous mode within a set tolerance range for all parameters). Improved in terms of both hardware and software, the products allow for much more accurate and repeatable results, and are also easy to integrate. iQLinQ™ software allows access to data in accordance with Industry 4.0 standards. We provide support for all major communication protocols, as well as the possibility of connecting directly to a PC using the iQ AiM™ USB port.
- Special machines – individually designed welding stations, robotic stations, multi-tool stations or systems with a rotary table:
