RFID-Coded Weld Tools

Herrmann Ultrasonics introduces two features to ensure more safety when changing welding tools with-in the production process. Firstly an RFID reader has been integrated into the tooling which guarantees that the right tool is in-stalled for the production. Not only is it built into the sonotrode but also into the fixture. The ultrasonic welding system automatically associates the correct parameter setting for parts to be welded with the in-stalled tooling. Medical device manufacturers will benefit from this new feature as it adds immense production security.
