Rinco Ultrasonics, a Swiss-headquartered manufacturer of ultrasonic welding equipment, has introduced the Ultrasonic Servo-Driven Splicer (USDS).
USDS captures and secures groups of wires and fuses the ends together to create a stronger bond with better electrical conductivity than soldered joints, the company said. Rinco is working to expand the USDS offering with higher power versions.
The company's ultrasonic welding machines enable the welding of non-ferrous metals without any additives. By manufacturing custom tools and components, Rinco offers products for a variety of applications including batteries, cable terminals, power cables, IGBTs, foil sheets and microelectronics. The higher conductivity compared to commercial bonds increases the use of ultrasonic metal welding in the production of batteries, busbars and wire harnesses.
Rinco's ultrasonic metal welding line includes the Ultrasonic Servo-Driven Bonder (USDB), which has a robust mechanical design that can withstand various loads and reaction forces. Rinco's systems can be integrated into special-purpose machines or automated lines.
“The Ultrasonic Servo-Driven Splicer offers manufacturers another effective option in the welding market,” said Bill Aurand, Rinco Sales Manager. “Our system is very efficient, helping manufacturers meet today's production needs.”
