Applications

The Sonobond SeamMaster offers a production alternative for joining and slitting synthetic fabrics. Materials best suited for ultrasonic bonding are 100 percent synthetic or blends with up to 40 percent natural fibers.Materials that can be used on the SeamMaster Series of ultrasonicbonders are polypropylene, polyester, nylon, acrylics, vinyls, PVC, and thermoplastic urethanes that are constructed as wovens, nonwovens, knits, industrial films, and laminates. Products include draperies, window shades, garments, blankets, filters, awnings, athletic accessories, automotive seats and carpets, banners, flags, medical apparel and disposables, safety garments, ballistics coverings, aviation insulation panels, netting, and ribbons.

Theory of Operation

Ultrasonic bonding is accomplished by channeling high-frequency vibrations to the fabric. As synthetic or nonwoven material passes between an ultrasonic unit’s horn and anvil, the vibrations are directed into the fabric where they create a rapid heat buildup. This heat causes the material’s synthetic fibers to melt and industrial fuse, creating bonded seams that will not fray or unravel.
