Transverse and torsional complex vibration systems for ultrasonic seam welding of metal plates
Transverse and torsional complex vibration systems for ultrasonic seam welding of metal plate specimens, using a 27 kHz complex vibration disk welding tip vibrating in transverse and torsional vibration modes, were studied. Using a complex vibration welding system with a welding tip vibrating in elliptical or circular locus, thick plate specimens can be welded with a more uniform and larger area compared to a conventional ultrasonic welding system. The disk welding tip vibrates in an elliptical or circular locus. The complex vibration system can continuously weld multiple parts of metal plate specimens such as heat sinks with a large number of fins.
