05 / ROBOT ULTRASONIC

Robotic Ultrasonic Welding

A robot-mounted ultrasonic unit follows programmed weld positions and surface angles. The concept suits automotive interior parts with distributed weld points, complex surfaces or flexible model-change requirements.

Flexible Welding Cell

Flexible welding for distributed points and complex surfaces

Programmed robot paths control weld position and tool angle. Single- or multi-robot layouts can be selected according to point count, takt and reach, then integrated with dedicated location tooling, safety guarding and process monitoring.

Flexible pathsRobot paths cover different approach angles and positions, with recipe changeover for multiple products.
Coordinated operationSingle- or multi-robot layouts reduce manual repositioning and repetitive work.
Fixture and safetyDedicated fixtures, guarding, door interlocks and process monitoring keep weld position and operating state consistent.
Quality recordsWeld parameters, alarms and product data can be connected to recipe management and project traceability.

System Reference

Robotic Ultrasonic Welding Concept Reference

The concept is developed around weld-point distribution, robot reach, part location, safety guarding and process monitoring. Final configuration requires sample and takt validation.

ApplicationsAutomotive interior plastic parts, multi-point assemblies, curved components and products requiring flexible changeover
System layoutSingle or multiple robots + ultrasonic welding units + dedicated location fixture + safety guarding
Typical taktSimilar welding equipment is commonly around 45 s; actual takt depends on weld-point count, robot paths, fixture motions and selected options
Path and changeoverProgrammed robot paths and weld angles, with recipe changeover for different products
Process monitoringOptional recording of weld parameters, alarms and product data, with recipe-management or traceability interfaces
Recommended input3D/2D data, weld positions and quantity, material combination, takt target, quality criteria and plant interfaces
