Why this process

  • Wire and sheet are welded in one joint.
  • Plated sheet is bonded without flux damage.
  • Low heat protects thin sheet and insulation.
  • Consistent joints across mixed materials.

Typical applications

Plated contact tabs · wire-to-sheet transitions · palladium contact bonding · small battery and sensor assemblies.

FAQs

Can a wire and a flat sheet be welded together?

Yes — the anvil supports the sheet while the horn consolidates the wire into it, making one solid joint.

Why is palladium used?

Palladium-plated surfaces resist corrosion and are common on high-reliability contacts; ultrasonic welding bonds them without damaging the plating.

Is the plating damaged?

No — the solid-state process consolidates the materials without melting the plated layer.
