Abstract :
The welding characteristics of 40 kHz welding system using the fundamental and higher resonance frequencies were studied. Using higher frequency, the welding characteristics of an ultrasonic welding system are improved due to the large vibration loss of plastic materials. The welding characteristics of the ultrasonic plastic welding system are improved significantly by driving the fundamental and higher resonance frequencies simultaneously.
