SSP – Ultrasonic composite cutter & welding system

Ultrasonic cutter and ultrasonic welding gun

The SSP ultrasonic cutting and welding portable equipment is a concentration of all our know-how. It incorporates a latest generation digital generator combined with an ultrasonic cutter or ultrasound welding pistol.

Small size, low weight, ergonomic design and multiple accessories make this your ideal partner for increased productivity in ultrasonic cutting and welding of composite materials.

Ultrasonic composite cutting

Our portable cutting system (SSP) is an ultrasonic cutter for cutting dry, prepreg, non-polymerised and honeycomb reinforcements up to 25mm.

Advantages

No fraying
Low cutting forces
Longer blade life
Cauterisation (TP composites)

Fabric and UD → Single layer

High deformability fabrics

Ultrasonic composite welding

Our ultrasonic welding pistol is designed for welding and assembly operations of composite and thermoplastic materials (PEEK, PA, PEI, etc.) as well as the pre-positioning of thermosetting composites.

Welding up to 25 plies, our equipment is perfect for pre-positioning before handling.

Allows to maintain thermoplastic composite stacks before handling.

Pre-impregnated fabrics: powders, films, co-blends,
Composite plates, strips etc.
Matrices: PA, PEI, PEEK, PEKK, PPS, etc.

Characteristics

Welding cycle settings (control of energy and welding time, amplitude adjustment)

Interchangeable tips for thermoplastic and thermosetting applications (conical, radial, diamond tips, flat). For details on our tips, please refer to our dedicated documentation.

Applications of manual composite cutting and welding using our ultrasonic equipment

Manual composite ultrasonic welding

Our ultrasonic welding pistol is very effective for positioning composite laminates. It allows to maintain thermoplastic composite stacks before handling

Here: positioning of woven glass fibre / PA66 composite plies and ultrasound pre-positioning of PEEK carbon plates

Manual ultrasonic cutting of carbon fibre

The ultrasonic cutting of UD thermoplastic prepreg is facilitated by our ultrasonic cutter. Cutting effort is reduced and precision is guaranteed thanks to our ergonomically designed equipment.

Manual ultrasonic cutting of honeycomb

Our wide range of blades designed for the handle makes it easy to cut larger thicknesses. Here, a 20mm thick honeycomb nomex is cut perfectly using the 25mm blade.
