Ultrasonic Metal Welders

Techspan supply a range of equipment for ultrasonically welding of ‘non-ferrous’ or ‘white’ metals – equipment for wire splicing, terminal welding, spot welding, continuous foil welding and more.  Techspan supply Sonobond Ultrasonic metal welding systems – the first patent ever issued for ultrasonic metal welding was awarded to Sonobond Ultrasonics (then known as Aero-projects) back in 1960. Sonobond Ultrasonics has been the worldwide leader in the development of ultrasonic metal welding equipment.

Sonobond ultrasonic metal welders create precise, solid-state metallurgical welds without heat, current, or consumables. This is achieved by introducing high-frequency vibration while the weld-ment is under a moderately high clamp force. non-ferrous similar and dissimilar metals can be welded with repeated accuracy.

Ultrasonic Metal Welder model SonoWeld 1600 –

  • Performs spot welds, as well as wire-to-terminal welding
  • Welds multiple layers and/or delicate foils to tabs or terminals for lithium-ion and NiMH battery assembly
  • Joins up to 10 stranded wires from flat flexible circuit to multi-connection terminals in a single pulse
  • Microprocessor-controlled system allows storage and recall of over 250 weld protocols
  • Digital display allows selection of welding modes by time, energy or distance, with automatic frequency control and overload protection
  • Outputs 1,500 or 2,500 watts of power to weld non-ferrous similar or dissimilar metal assemblies, including copper to aluminum

Ultrasonic Metal Welder model SPG 2600 – single point ground welder –

Microprocessor-controlled metal spot welding system for producing the single point ground terminals used in complex automotive electronic components and circuitry. Ultrasonically welds up to 18 wires to a single terminal with one pulse before automatically folding the terminal arms to provide stress relief on the joint.

Sonobond’s Single Point Ground Welder SPG 2600 ultrasonically welds wire bundles of up to 20 square millimeters to a single terminal. This easy-to-use, microprocessor-controlled unit accomplishes the weld in one pulse. The SPG 2600 is designed specifically for producing the single point ground terminals used in eliminating the electrical noise caused by the large number of complex electronic components in automotive circuits. Once the weld has been made, the unit automatically crimps the terminal arms around the wires to provide stress relief on the joint.

The Single Point Ground Welder utilizes the patented Wedge-Reed system. This creates precise, ultra-reliable, solid-state metallurgical bonds without heat, current, fluxes, or fillers. Even lightly tinned or oxidized wires can be accommodated by the unit.

Handles Bundles of Up to 20 Square Millimeters

Sonobond’s Single Point Ground Welder outputs 2,500 watts of power and can confidently handle up to 18 wires. The power supply features a built-in microprocessor that stores and recalls up to 250 weld protocols and permits weld parameters to be selected by time or energy. The unit’s heat-treated, tool steel Taper Lock Tips perform up to 100,000 welds and can be easily removed and replaced.
