    Model Covered This manual contains instructions for installing, setting up and operating the Ultrasplice 40 Actuator. An Ultrasplice 40 Actuator requires a compatible Branson Metal Welding Controller to function, that is covered in separate manuals and user documents. 2.1.1 Controller Manual Set...
  • Page 23: Overview Of This Model

    2.2.2 The Pneumatic System A pneumatic cylinder drives the anvil actuator to apply a precise pressure to the parts to be welded during the weld cycle. Pneumatic control is done by a compatible Branson Metal Welding Controller. 2.2.3 The Linear Encoder The linear encoder is a sensing device that tracks mechanical displacements related to the splice's resulting height and/or width.
  • Page 24 The horn is coated to further enhance tool life and to provide corrosion resistance. Since the horn is a vital part of the ultrasonic assembly system, it should not be altered without proper training and advice from Branson. 2.2.7...
  • Page 25: Figure 2.2 Gather And Anvil

    Figure 2.2 Gather and Anvil Anvil Gather 2.2.8 Anvil The Anvil contains a serrated or knurled surface and is designed to hold the wires to be welded stationary against the lower component, which is vibrating at 40,000 Hz. The Anvil is supported on precision, roller bearings and applies the compressive force required to bond the wires.

    Features The UltraSplice 40 is a complete 40 kHz, precision, light weight and portable, ultrasonic wire splicing system capable of producing perfect quality wire splices up to six square millimeters in cross section using an advanced 700 watt power supply. The Ultrasplice 40 ultrasonic wire splicer offers the following features: •...
  • Page 27: Controls

    Controls • Down Stop: The down stop is used to prevent contact between the Horn and Anvil if the welder is cycled without the part(s) to be welded. A minimum gap of 0.001 in (0.02mm) is recommended • Gather adjusting screw: Used to set the width of the compression chamber. Depending on the application the anvil will need to be set accordingly DCM00038 REV.
  • Page 28: Ultrasonic Theory

    Ultrasonic Theory 2.5.1 What Is an Ultrasonic Weld? Ultrasonic welding joins metal parts by applying the energy of high frequency vibrations onto the interface area between the parts to be welded. 2.5.1.1 How Does It Work? Electrical Energy is transformed into high frequency mechanical vibration. This mechanical vibration is transferred to a welding tip through an acoustically tuned horn.
  • Page 29: Table 2.1 Calculating Power

    The power required to initiate and maintain vibration (motion) during the weld cycle can be defined as: Table 2.1 Calculating Power Where: • P = Power (watts) P = F x A x f • F = Force * (N) •...
  • Page 30: Figure 2.5 Weld Power Graph For Clean Components, Dirty Components And When Part Is Missing

    Figure 2.5 Weld Power Graph for Clean Components, Dirty Components and when Part is Missing 2.5.4 Power The converter/ booster/ horn, (stack assembly), requires minimal electrical power to initiate and maintain motion (vibration) at a ‘no-load’ condition. As the mechanical load increases, the power required to maintain the mechanical vibration also increases.
  • Page 31: Figure 2.7 Pressure Variable With Increased Time

    2.5.5 Time The time required to deliver the necessary energy is defined as the Weld Time. For most welds, the time required will be less than one second. If more energy is required and all other weld parameters are maintained, the weld time will increase (Figure 2.7).
  • Page 32: Figure 2.9 Amplitude's Influence On Weld Power And Time

    also increases. Subsequently, because of the increased Power less time is required deliver the same amount of Energy. This relationship is illustrated in the following power diagram (Figure 2.9): Figure 2.9 Amplitude’s Influence on Weld Power and Time 2.5.7 Resonant Frequency The ultrasonic tooling acts as a spring having node points and anti-node points.
  • Page 33 2.5.8 Avoiding an Overload Condition It is possible to increase the Amplitude and or the Pressure to a point where the power available is not adequate to initiate or maintain vibration under the given mechanical load. At this point, the power supply will stall resulting in an Overload condition. NOTICE Electronic circuits in the system will protect the power supply if an overload condition exists.
  • Page 34: Terminology

    Terminology Actuator: A mechanical device which houses the converter/booster/horn (stack) assembly in a rigid mounting and is utilized to move the stack up or down. This allows for precise control of welding pressure while delivering mechanical vibrations from the ultrasonic stack to the work piece(s). After Burst: A short duration (burst) of ultrasonic energy that begins after completion of the AFTER BURST DELAY.
  • Page 35 Energy: Energy is the area beneath the ultrasonic power curve and is calculated in joules, (Watts X Seconds = Joules). When the ultrasonic welding system is setup in the “Weld In Energy” mode the system will deliver the amount of energy as programmed. NOTE: The maximum (default) time allowed for delivering ultrasonic energy is five (5) seconds.
  • Page 36 Power Supply (Ultrasonic): An electronic device that converts 50/60 cycle electrical current into 20 kHz, (20,000), 40 kHz (40,000), or 60 kHz, (60,000) cycles per second high frequency electrical energy. Power Supply Overload (Ultrasonic): The point or limit at which the amount of power in watts, required to keep the ultrasonic stack in motion, exceeds the available power from the power supply.
