Why we ask so much
A welder is not a catalogue purchase
Two companies can buy the same press and get completely different results, because the machine is the smallest variable. What decides success is the resin, the joint geometry, the sonotrode and the fixture — and three of those four depend entirely on your part.
So we would rather ask ten questions now than quote a machine that cannot do the job. If the honest answer is that ultrasonic welding is wrong for your part, you will hear that too.
The five that matter most- Both materials — resin, grade, filler and regrind
- Photos of both halves, and a close-up of the joint
- What the weld must achieve — strength, seal, cosmetics
- Wall thickness at the joint
- Whether the mould tool is already cut
What happens next
- We review the parts and come back with questions or a recommendation — usually within a business day
- If the application looks right, we arrange a trial weld on your actual parts
- You get the welded samples back with the parameters recorded
- Only then do we quote the machine, the sonotrode and the fixture

joint design and
materials first — between them they answer most of what people ring us about, and they will tell you whether your part is a candidate at all.
