Cut edge

The perfect cutting result

The quality of the cutting edge is considerably better when using an ultrasonic cutting tool than with mechanical or thermal cutting processes. The high-frequency ultrasonic vibration reduces the resistance of the rubber material, making it easier to cut. This creates the perfect cutting surface for further processing.

Components

Sonotrode

  • Optimized sonotrodes calculated using the finite element method
  • Auxiliary frequency analysis to prevent heat development
  • Heat dissipation thanks to specially hardened steel
  • Optional: Component cooling possible

Test it

 

5 × more durable and robust

The Herrmann hardened steel sonotrode is up to 5 times more robust than standard titanium sonotrodes. If required, it is also possible to rework the cutting edge – this extends the service life even more.

Converter

  • Reliable four-disk piezo technology
  • Absorption of axial and torsion forces thanks to rigid decoupling principle
  • Sturdy body made from durable titanium

ULTRACUT-Generator

  • USB and Ethernet interfaces
  • Easy to enter process parameters, limits for power, time, energy
  • System performance evaluation
  • Generator with fieldbus interface for setting parameters
  • DataRecorder data memory
  • Graphical display of the cutting process by use of additional software (DIASim)

Booster

  • Maximum efficiency thanks to increased amplitude
  • Made from high-quality titanium
Why Herrmann?

Global partner with expertise

  • Integration: Easy to integrate into existing production lines thanks to smart adapters. The simplest alignment options in the system.
  • Process: Digital generator with limit monitoring and optional data recording, as well as visualization of the cutting process.
  • Ingenious result: The optimized sonotrode surface design reduces resistance and thus prevents rubber burns and contamination on the cutting surface. Overall, significantly less contamination.
  • Perfect product: Sturdy designs to prevent costly production down times. Optional system cooling to prevent the transfer of heat to the rubber material.
