Ultrasonic Metal Welding Machine for Glove Box Use Battery Tab Cap Welding

Product Overview

This ultrasonic metal welding machine is designed for compact, controlled joining of battery components and thin metal materials in glove box laboratory workflows. It combines a high-power generator with a dedicated welding head to support repeatable point-welding operations where controlled equipment dimensions, metric instrumentation, and defined utility conditions are important to process planning.

The equipment is particularly suited to welding 0.1 mm aluminum strip to battery caps and joining caps used with cylindrical cell formats such as 18650 and 21700. Custom welding areas and corresponding welding tooling can be specified for the intended component geometry, helping research and pilot-production teams adapt the unit to different cell assembly requirements.

A clearly defined electrical and pneumatic operating envelope supports reliable installation and daily use. The system is specified for 220 V operation with a tolerance of ±10%, compressed air at 0.4-0.6 MPa, humidity below 48%, and an ambient temperature not exceeding 45°C. These requirements give engineering and procurement teams a practical basis for facility compatibility review.

Key Features

• Ultrasonic Metal Joining: The equipment is configured for ultrasonic point welding of battery-related metal components, including thin aluminum strip and cylindrical cell caps. This provides a dedicated joining solution for laboratory-scale cell fabrication and materials research workflows.

• Battery Cap Welding Capability: The welding process supports cap-related work for 18650 and 21700 cylindrical battery formats. The defined application range helps laboratories evaluate equipment suitability against common cell assembly tasks.

• Customizable Welding Area: A reference process for 0.1 mm aluminum strip and cap uses a 1.5 x 3 mm welding area. The corresponding welding die or horn can be customized to match the required component and joint geometry.

• Dedicated High-Power Generator: The high-power generator has a compact footprint of 480 mm x 365 mm x 202 mm. Its defined enclosure size supports layout planning when the welding station must be integrated into a glove box or a constrained laboratory environment.

• Compact Welding Head: The welding head measures 420 mm x 180 mm x 290 mm at its maximum external dimensions. This form factor helps users assess working clearance, access, and installation requirements before commissioning.

• Defined Utility Requirements: The unit operates on 220 V ±10% and requires an air source at 0.4-0.6 MPa. Stating the operating utilities clearly supports more predictable facility integration and reduces ambiguity during equipment selection.

• Controlled Environmental Conditions: The specified operating environment requires humidity below 48% and temperature no higher than 45°C. Maintaining these conditions helps laboratories establish an appropriate installation and operating plan.

• Metric Instrumentation: All measuring instruments on the equipment use metric units. This improves consistency for laboratories that document dimensions, utilities, and process conditions within metric-based technical procedures.

• Bilingual Program Support: The internal program is required to include both Chinese and English. This supports operation and process documentation in multilingual laboratory or manufacturing environments.

• Three-Meter Transducer Connection: The transducer emission line connecting the welding head assembly to the electrical control box requires a length of 3 meters. This reference dimension should be incorporated into equipment layout, routing, and glove box integration planning.

Applications

Technical Specifications

The stated dimensions should be reviewed together with the intended glove box opening, internal working envelope, service access, and cable or line routing. The generator and welding head are listed as separate dimensional assemblies, so the complete installation layout should reserve space for both components and their interconnection.

The power requirement is 220 V with an allowable variation of ±10%. The compressed-air requirement is 0.4-0.6 MPa, with humidity below 48%. Facility teams should verify that the available electrical supply and air preparation system remain within these conditions during operation, particularly when the unit is installed in a controlled enclosure or shared laboratory utility network.

For the reference aluminum-strip application, the supplied process information identifies a 0.1 mm aluminum strip joined to a cap and a 1.5 x 3 mm welding area. This is a reference configuration rather than a universal limitation on every possible joint. Because the welding area and corresponding tooling can be customized, buyers should provide component drawings, material details, and target joint dimensions during technical review.

The listed cylindrical cell applications include 18650 and 21700 cap welding. These formats should be evaluated against the laboratory's actual cap construction, tab design, access direction, and glove box handling procedure. Final tooling selection and process validation should be based on the components that will be used in production or research trials.

The transducer emission line connecting to the electrical control box requires a 3 m length. This detail is important when positioning the generator relative to the welding head and glove box. Routing should preserve practical access and avoid creating unnecessary bends, interference, or obstruction around the operator's working area.

Why Choose This Product

• Purpose-Built for Battery Joining: The equipment addresses specific cap and aluminum-tab welding tasks rather than serving as an unspecified general-purpose joining tool. Its reference applications cover both 18650 and 21700 cylindrical cell formats.

• Adaptable Process Tooling: A 1.5 x 3 mm welding area is documented for the 0.1 mm aluminum-strip application, while the welding die or horn can be customized for different component geometries. This supports a better fit between equipment configuration and research requirements.

• Engineering-Ready Installation Data: Generator and welding head dimensions, the 220 V ±10% supply, 0.4-0.6 MPa air requirement, and 3 m transducer connection are clearly defined for procurement and facility planning.

• Consistent Technical Communication: Metric measuring instruments and Chinese-English program support help standardize operation and documentation across multilingual technical teams.

• Suitable for Controlled Laboratory Workflows: The defined humidity and temperature limits provide a clear basis for evaluating environmental compatibility, especially where the equipment is incorporated into glove box-based battery R&D.
