FAQ

Application Product Types

1. Servo control technology allows precise adjustment of the filling volume via a touchscreen, ensuring consistent filling across all tubes and guaranteeing product uniformity. The tube chamber height can be easily adjusted based on tube length, and the external inverted feeding system ensures cleaner, more convenient loading.

2. Equipped with mechanically linked photoelectric sensors, offering a precision error of less than 0.2mm to minimize color deviation between the tube and registration mark, ensuring sealing quality. The system integrates photoelectric, electrical, and pneumatic controls — no tube, no fill; low air pressure alarms; and automatic machine stop in case of tube errors or safety door openings, ensuring safe operation.

3. The triple-jacket instant heater uses internal air heating, which protects the tube’s outer design while achieving strong and visually appealing seals. A PLC controller and color touchscreen provide programmable control and an intuitive interface. With a wide range of system parameters available, users can easily monitor machine status, enhancing reliability and ease of use.

How does an ultrasonic tube sealing machine work?
How does an ultrasonic tube sealing machine work?

It uses high-frequency (ultrasonic) mechanical vibrations (typically 20-40 kHz) from a piezoelectric transducer. The horn (sonotrode) presses the tube against the sealing anvil. The vibrations create friction and localized heat at the tube's plastic layers, melting and fusing them together under pressure to form a hermetic seal without external heat.

What are the main advantages over heat sealing?
What are the main advantages over heat sealing?
  • Cold process: Minimal heat generation protects sensitive contents (e.g., pharmaceuticals, biologics, gels).

  • Hermetic, particle-free seals: No burn-through or charring.

  • Speed: Seals in typically 0.2-1 second.

  • Energy efficiency: Consumes power only during sealing.

  • Consistency: Highly repeatable process.

What types of tubes can be sealed?
What types of tubes can be sealed?

 Laminated plastic tubes (e.g., with PE, PP, or Aluminum foil barrier layers), co-extruded plastic tubes, and some monolayer PE tubes. Common in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, medical, food, and industrial products.

Can it seal aluminum or metal tubes?
Can it seal aluminum or metal tubes?

No, standard ultrasonic sealing is for plastic or plastic-laminate tubes. Pure aluminum tubes require thermal conduction sealing. Laminate tubes with a thin aluminum foil layer inside are common and sealable.

What materials are NOT suitable?
What materials are NOT suitable?

Unsupported foils, PVC, PET, PTFE, or materials with high melt temperatures/bad friction properties. Always consult the manufacturer for material compatibility tests.

How long does a horn (sonotrode) last?
How long does a horn (sonotrode) last?

Typically years under normal use. Life depends on material (titanium alloy), operating amplitude, and maintenance. Avoid scratches and overtightening. Cracks or pitting require immediate replacement.

Can it be integrated into an automated filling line?
Can it be integrated into an automated filling line?

Yes, most models are designed for inline integration with conveyors, sensors, and PLCs for automatic tube feeding and discharge.

Is special training needed?
Is special training needed?

Basic operation training is recommended for setup, parameter adjustment, and troubleshooting to ensure seal quality and machine longevity.
