Vibration Welders

 

Linear vibration welders require no additional materials and provide energy efficient operation with permanent assembly and hermetic sealing. Other advantages include large part capability, internal joints, immediate handling, high production rates and entrapment of other parts. These vibration welders can handle painted and mold release parts.

Mechanical Features of All Dukane Vibration Welders
 
  • Efficient electromagnetic drive system, with proven reliability, complete with digital PWM drives.
  • Heaviest-in-class, one-piece flame cut bridge stops unwanted vibrations at its source.
  • Four continuously supported rails with eight reciprocating bearings for best table slide in the industry.
  • Robust frame with more cross members to support dovetail side bridge.
  • Tubular steel table with 1" (25mm) thick Blanchard ground surface provides stable platform for lower tooling.
  • Rexroth hydraulic power unit has large 20-gallon oil reservoir and proportional valve for precise control of table speeds during machine cycle.  As well as reducing thermal build up.
  • Backward and forward engineered compatibility means up to 80% of components in welders are interchangeable.
  • Machines do not exceed 80dBA continuous.
