            <link>http://news.thomasnet.com/fullstory/557355</link>
            <description>
Able to accommodate tinned or heavily oxidized wires, Dual Head SpliceRite(TM) welds wire bundles that have cross-sectional areas of up to 100 mm&amp;#178;. It comes with 3,500 W power supply and utilizes Wedge-Reed system, which directs high frequency ultrasonic energy via welding tips to wires to be welded. Welding heads on each side of weld area enables accelerated splicing of large wire bundles. Up to 250 jobs can be stored/recalled, and welds may be controlled by height, energy, or time.

            <description>CIC (Contained Inner Chamfer) capillary contains additional gold generated from free air ball during bonding in its inner chamfer. Device reduces production of large ball diameters and enables use of thicker wire bonding for UFP applications of 50 &amp;#181;m and below, reducing wire sweeps and short failures. Capillary supports UFP processes with maximized ball-on pad accuracy, higher ball shear, and consistent distribution of inter-metallic coverage.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;This story is related to the following:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href='http://news.thomasnet.com/news/materials-material-processing' target='_blank''&gt;Materials and Material Processing&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href='http://news.thomasnet.com/news/laboratory-research-supplies-equipment' target='_blank''&gt;Laboratory and Research Supplies and Equipment&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Search for suppliers of: &lt;a href='http://www.thomasnet.com/products/capillaries-10492254-1.html' target='_blank''&gt;Capillaries&lt;/a&gt;  |  &lt;a href='http://www.thomasnet.com/products/wire-bonders-6871107-1.html' target='_blank''&gt;Wire Bonders&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

            <description>SureWeld 20 kHz ultrasonic plunge welders can assemble cylindrical filters from pleated HEPA filter media. In overlapping applications, ultrasonic welders bond and trim edges of pleated filter media in one step to create 10 in. filter tube, which maintains HEPA rating. SureWeld bonders feature rectangular support columns, which eliminate deflection and keep filter unit in perfect alignment during assembly process.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;This story is related to the following:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href='http://news.thomasnet.com/news/materials-material-processing' target='_blank''&gt;Materials and Material Processing&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href='http://news.thomasnet.com/news/welding-equipment-supplies' target='_blank''&gt;Welding Equipment and Supplies&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Search for suppliers of: &lt;a href='http://www.thomasnet.com/products/bonding-machinery-45791605-1.html' target='_blank''&gt;Bonding Machinery&lt;/a&gt;  |  &lt;a href='http://www.thomasnet.com/products/ultrasonic-welders-93391605-1.html' target='_blank''&gt;Ultrasonic Welders&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

            <title>Charging System bonds materials electrostatically.</title>
            <link>http://news.thomasnet.com/fullstory/9510</link>
            <description>Model 3000 Autostat(R) uses forces of static electricity for adhering one material to another, such as temporary bonding of protective covering to metal sheets or wood paneling, spot pinning of over-wrapping material prior to heat sealing, edge pinning of web to einsure constant direction, and removal of air pockets during laminating. Power supply has variable output to insure highest degree of bonding necessary to complete holding process.
