Stuck in the Ultrasonic Welding Weeds? 

Going without the right ultrasonic plastic welding machine can cost your business time and money. Choosing the wrong automation systems provider can also cost your business. You risk falling behind competitors that have the ability to make quality parts for less.

Ultrasonic plastic welding uses high-frequency mechanical vibrations transmitted through thermoplastic parts to create frictional heat at a joint interface. The frictional heat generated causes the part interfaces to melt and fuse while pressure is applied. This technique is fast, efficient, non-contaminating and requires no consumables.

We know you want to nail down the right welding systems to successfully launch your products. Our ultrasonic plastic welding machines and automation systems are delivered on time and function flawlessly. Our systems are backed by customer support to help every worker in your plant, no matter the shift.

AMS will help you obtain repeatable ultrasonically welded results. We will assist you in analyzing the welding characteristics of thermoplastics and bring our understanding of how polymer structure and other factors affect the weldability of different polymers. Our engineering team will ensure that you consistently get the results you expect. Download the data sheet above for more information, then schedule an application review with our pros.
