The workhorse line of ultrasonic welders, available in 20kHz, 35kHz, and 70kHz frequencies, have been upgraded with enhanced pneumatics, the latest in user-friendly features, and a fresh new look, according to Serge Patamia, CEO of Rinco Ultrasonics, based in Romanshorn, Switzerland.
“Our next-generation Standard Series technology elevates pneumatically-driven ultrasonic welding to a new level, pushing the limits of what our customers can achieve in terms of performance and cost to meet their rigorous manufacturing requirements,” said Patamia. “This proven, robust machine line now comes with some of the most user-friendly features in the industry to help manufacturers be more efficient and productive.”
The standard series line offers updated pneumatics including the latest safety standard features such as position monitoring of the ultrasonic stack.
The next-generation Standard Series also boasts a completely new graphical, ergonomic, and intuitive user interface. This user-friendly feature affords operators much greater flexibility, access, and speed. The user interface is easily operated via a built-in 10-in colour touchscreen monitor which provides quick and easy operation. The new touch panel generator face has a user-friendly interface which includes advanced weld data graphing.
The user interface also provides programmable password protection. Improved weld data transfer and storage is significantly enhanced with automatic transfer of welding results to internal and external data carriers and network drives.
The new Standard Series is also fully calibratable and offers permanent audit trails so users can track all system errors and adjustments. To ensure quality and process traceability, all events and changes to the parameters are automatically stored in an audit trail protocol. Non-volatile storage of all weld alerts and process changes makes setup tampering impossible. This permanent audit trail along with the Standard Series’ ISO 13485 and Class 6 cleanroom certifications help medical device manufacturers comply with the unique requirements of their industry.
The new Standard Series also comes equipped with a patented machine status indicator on the front of the machine. A light strip indicates machine status (ready=green, error=red) thus alerting the operator to good and bad parts.
