Sonobond Ultrasonics announced that technical sales personnel will display and demonstrate the capabilities of its SeamMaster Ultrasonic Sewing Machine at Techtextil North America, May 10-12, in Booth 1102.

Sonobond’s ultrasonic assembly equipment – featuring the SeamMaster Ultrasonic Sewing Machine – produces strong, regulatory-compliant sealed seams in nonwoven and synthetic materials. This enables manufacturers to achieve effective and efficient production outcomes wherever sewn seams are inadequate to satisfy their end-use requirements.

SeamMaster Ultrasonic Sewing Machines, considered the industry’s number one ultrasonic sewing machines, look and operate like traditional sewing machines. However, unlike conventional units that use needles and thread, Sonobond’s use ultrasonic vibrations to soften and fuse synthetic fibers. This creates strong, durable seals. In addition, these units use a patented rotary operation, where both horn and pattern wheel rotate at the same time, to produce ultra-reliable, soft-to-the-touch seams.

Here are some of the items in which Sonobond’s ultrasonic assembly equipment produce leak-proof seams – at four times faster than industrial sewing machines and 10 times faster than adhesive methods:  face masks and surgical gowns; body armor and ballistic vests; pleated, HVAC and HEPA filters; air, gas and jet fuel filters; vacuum & heavy-duty filter bags; hazmat & PPE garments; automotive & aviation acoustic and thermal insulation panels; lint-free cleaning & paint-prep wipes; as well as oil containment booms and spill clean-up cloths.

Sonobond personnel will demonstrate how quickly and easily sealed seams are produced in a variety of nonwoven and synthetic textile materials. Additionally, if show attendees bring their own materials to Techtextil Booth 1102, they will produce leak-proof seams for them.

Those who are not attending Techtextil can order no-cost viability testing of their own materials by visiting the website and filling out the order form:  https://sonobondultrasonics.com/request-for-free-sample-welds/. This will enable manufacturers to see the quality of the sealed seams before they decide to purchase any unit.
