A Medical Device company specialized in developing optimized solutions for organ, tissue and cell preservation and perfusion to support life-saving transplantations, is utilizing a servo ultrasonic welding system to assemble tiny caps on disposable sensors. These polycarbonate disposable sensors monitor pH and gas in the artificial blood during ex vivo assessment and evaluation. Three thin… Continue Reading Medical Device Manufacturer Boosts Efficiency with Servo Ultrasonic Welding

The ultrasonic “stack” is made up of three components: the transducer, booster and ultrasonic horn. The quality of the mating surfaces between these three units will have a major impact on the operating efficiency of your ultrasonic welding equipment. If they are not flat, if they become corroded or they make poor contact, they become… Continue Reading Reconditioning the Ultrasonic “Stack”
