Branson Welding Systems are available in 15, 20, 30, and 40 kHz. These systems are totally digital with touch screen interface, and have advanced communications features.
Ultrasonic assembly utilizes an acoustic tool called a horn to transfer vibratory energy through the part to the joint area, where it is converted to heat through friction that melts the plastic. Ultrasonics can be used to join not only rigid thermoplastics, but fabrics and films as well. Branson ultrasonic welding equipment converts 50/60 Hz current to 15, 20, 30, or 40 kHz electrical energy through a solid-state power supply. This high frequency electrical energy is supplied to the converter that transforms it to mechanical motion at ultrasonic frequencies. The mechanical motion is then transmitted through an amplitude-modifying booster to the horn. The horn, an acoustic tool, transfers this vibratory energy directly to the parts being assembled. The main components of an ultrasonic system are the power supply, converter/booster/horn stack, part fixture, and a means of providing horn contact with the parts -- usually an actuator.
Four frequencies of ultrasonic equipment are available to accommodate your application requirements. They are 15 kHz, 20 kHz, 30 kHz, and 40 kHz. |
2000X Systems are available in 20, 30, and 40 kHz. The power supplies have increased power output for all frequencies: 15kHz units are rated at 3300 Watts, 20 kHz units are rated at 1250, 2500, and 4000 Watts 30 kHz is available in 750 and 1500 Watts; and 40 kHz are available in 400 and 800 Watts. Four levels of control are available:
2000X t/ae
- Weld by time, ground detect
- Available in 4 frequencies – 15, 20, 30, and 40 kHz
- Digital amplitude setting
- Multiple language choices
- Increased power levels
Process Control -- The 2000X t/ae units have built-in digital amplitude control for fine tuning of critical applications; self-diagnostics and monitoring; printing capability for providing a record for future comparison and validation; presets for ease of setup and changeover of applications, and password protection feature for lock-out of unauthorized process changes once the equipment is set up for a specific application. An Ethernet card is optional.
The totally digital power supply has 4-line display and features:
- True Digital Autotune with Memory (AT/M) - Provides fully-automatic tuning and stores horn frequency at the end of each weld
- Total Amplitude Control
- Programmable Starting Ramp
- Energy Braking
Line / Load Regulation
- Systems Protection Monitor (SPM) Five levels of power supply protection are provided: 1) phasing, 2) over voltage, 3) over current, 4) over temperature, and 5) power.
2000X ea/ae
- Weld by time, energy, peak power, ground detect
- Available in 4 frequencies – 15, 20, 30, and 40 kHz

The d/aed systems feature a full VGA touch screen with simple navigation, graphing, and multiple communications options. A VQSSM (Visual Quality Screen) provides real-time quality monitoring. Additionally, this user interface provides:
- Process graphing with graph overlay capability – graphing of power, collapse distance, amplitude, force, velocity, and frequency.
- Power Match Curve: a feature that allows the user to develop a standard power graph, then set limits for process monitoring.
- Choice of language for message display and printout – English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, traditional and simplified Chinese
- USB port for data collection, mouse, printer, etc.

Branson offers a multitude of accessories for our ultrasonic welding systems; including software for statistical process control and process validation.
Sound Enclosures – The Sound Enclosure is designed to fit all Branson 2000 and 2000X Series ultrasonic welders, including 15 kHz products.
Inch leveling plate - The Self-Adjusting Dynamic Fixture Plate is designed to significantly reduce part marking and setup time for parts with deep and/or complex contours. It is used to support and self-align parts for ultrasonic welding. The plate is designed to allow quick, easy setup of parts having deep or complex contours.
Metric leveling plate - The Self-Adjusting Dynamic Fixture Plate is designed to significantly reduce part marking and setup time for parts with deep and/or complex contours. It is used to support and self-align parts for ultrasonic welding. The plate is designed to allow quick, easy setup of parts having deep or complex contours.
InfinityQS Proficient Enterprise SPC software - For additional functionality, Branson X-Port integrates with the InfinityQS ProFicient Quality Suite.
Torque wrench kits - Welding systems function with greatest efficiency when the stack components (converter, booster, and horn) are properly assembled and torqued. The Branson Torque Wrench Kit allows for accurate torquing.
Stack vise - The 20 kHz Universal Stack Vise is used for the separation, assembly, and torquing of 20 kHz stacks.
