Ultrasonic welding
Focus on maximum quality
Ultrasonic welding
Take your productivity to the maximum
- It helps to achieve very good results results in terms of strength, tightness, and visual appearance.
- The resulting friction heat melts the material directly at the joining points of the individual material layers.
- Because of low energy consumption, the material undergoes very little thermal stress.

Applications of the ultrasonic welding technology
Discover everything you can do
Welding / cross seal
When welding cross seals, instantaneous peak power must be precisely controlled and introduced into the joint areas in a minimum of time. For such applications, correct selection of the anvil geometry and the ultrasonic system is of particular importance.
Benefits / special features:
- Consistent and uniformly strong connection
- High product throughput per minute
- Soft hand feel
Laminating
Targeted joining of several layers of nonwovens by means of ultrasonics and an anvil drum with structure. Bonding of the material web is merely performed in “spots”, which prevents any adverse effects e.g. on filter properties or stretching behavior of elastic composites.
Benefits / special features:
- Energy-saving
- No adhesives required
- Fast processing
Embossing
With an engraved anvil drum a pattern structure is permanently embossed onto a textile surface through application of pressure. During this process additional design effects may be achieved, depending on color combinations of the material layers to be embossed.
Benefits / special features:
- Textile hand feel is maintained
- Low energy consumption
- Color designs possible without additional print
Perforating
Defined perforation of films and silicone layers by means of ultrasonics and an anvil drum. This ensures an increase in process speed compared to thermal processes, without any negative influence on the material.
Benefits / special features:
- High process speeds
- Process control
- Fiber-free perforation
Cutting
Cutting and simultaneous sealing of nonwovens in one single process ensures fiber-free joining of marginal areas. This technology is also used for splicing of material webs so that the joining point quality is suitable for end
products.
Benefits / special features:
- Fiber-free welding of cutting edges
- High production speeds
- Material splices in end product-quality
