Ultrasonic Welding For Small Plastic Parts Manufacturing

Ultrasonic Welding For Small Plastic Parts Manufacturing

Small plastic parts bring their own challenges when it comes to joining, since there is often very little surface area to work with and no room for error in alignment. Andel Plastics provides ultrasonic welding suited specifically to small component manufacturing, using precise, repeatable vibration welding to produce a strong bond even on fiddly, intricate parts. The process is fast enough to suit high volume production runs, which matters when a project involves large batches of small components that all need to meet the same joint quality. Because there is no adhesive involved, there is also no risk of glue bleeding onto small, visible surfaces or affecting the finish of the finished part. Supported by our injection moulding facility and in house toolroom in Birmingham, we can manage a small component from initial moulding through to finished, welded assembly without involving an external supplier. For manufacturers producing small plastic parts at scale, this combination of precision, speed and repeatability is exactly what ultrasonic welding was designed to offer.
