Ultrasonic unit handles low-power welding.


The 2000LP family of low-power ultrasonic ultrasonic /ul·tra·son·ic/ (-son´ik) beyond the upper limit of perception by the human ear; relating to sound waves having a frequency of more than 20,000 Hz.

ul·tra·son·ic
adj.
1.
 systems from Branson Ultrasonics ultrasonics, study and application of the energy of sound waves vibrating at frequencies greater than 20,000 cycles per second, i.e., beyond the range of human hearing.  Corp., Danbury, Conn., is a new offering for applications with power requirements of 500 watts or less. The power supply and controller, usable with Branson's new 2000 Series hand welder, have a digital LED display, digital control of amplitude and other parameters, and visual/audible alarms.

The 2000LP provides auto tuning and stores horn frequency at the end of each weld. Parameters of the last cycle are also stored, even if the power is turned off. Three frequencies are available: 20 kHz at 150 and 500 W, 30 kHz at 500 W, and 40 kHz at 150 and 500 W. Applications include spot welding Spot welding

A resistance-welding process in which coalescence is produced by the flow of electric current through the resistance of metals held together under pressure. Usually the upper electrode moves and applies the clamping force.
 and cutting of composite materials composite material or composite, any material made from at least two discrete substances, such as concrete. Many materials are produced as composites, such as the fiberglass-reinforced plastics used for automobile bodies and boat hulls, but the . Tel: (203)
