Ultrasonic Bonders for Nonwovens and Textiles
Create Fast, Secure Bonds
Sonobond ultrasonic bonding systems quickly assemble products made from performance textiles, including PPE, filters and automotive components. They outperform traditional sewing and adhesive joining methods by producing secure barrier seams and bonded edges without stitch holes, glue gaps, fraying or unraveling.
Because there are no perforations, ultrasonic bonding is a better way to produce safe and compliant medical garments and disposable nonwovens.:
- Seam and trim in one efficient step.
- Comply with stringent regulatory requirements.
- Seal the outer shell of body armor to meet NIJ standards.
- Eliminate stitch holes and glue gaps in liquid and air filters, including HEPA filters.
Sustainability Advantages
In addition to performance advantages, ultrasonic bonding supports sustainability initiatives by eliminating the need for thread, adhesives and chemical binders. Material consumption is reduced, production waste is minimized and energy usage is lower than conventional joining methods.
Key Applications for Ultrasonic Bonding Technology
- Medical and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Includes face masks, surgical gowns, disposable shoe covers, sterilization pouches and wound dressings. Ultrasonic bonding improves barrier integrity while eliminating added materials that contribute to waste.
- Filtration Products: Includes pleated, HVAC, and HEPA filters, as well as air, liquid, and gas filters for automotive and aerospace applications. Eliminating adhesives can improve product cleanliness while reducing chemical usage.
- Dry Bags: Since seams are stronger and created without perforations, bags remain waterproof and durable while avoiding additional sealing materials.
- Protective Gear: Since seams are created without perforations; ballistic-resistant materials are protected from water exposure, and consumables like thread and adhesives are not used.
