Telsonic says its latest suite of ultrasonic welding systems have been used to produce a series of exterior and interior components, including sensor housings and switch bezels, for a number of current JLR models.
The company claims ultrasonic welding offers precise and repeatable control of the joining process, ensuring that the welding process does not distort, discolour or otherwise damage the ‘A’ surface finishes. Systems for this type of application include dual USP2000 20kHz 3kW presses, each of which uses titanium multi-tip tooling. All of the tooling is interchangeable across both machines to support flexibility in production says the company.
