Telsonic UK is collaborating with the Nottingham office of Stratasys, performing a series of interesting 3D-printed polypropylene ultrasonic weld trials. A Stratasys H350 produced parts for the tests. Initial abstract trials were conducted with Telsonic’s 35kHz Handystar Energy handgun system to check the ultrasonic weldability of the material using various techniques. The success of these tests led to further investigation, guided this time by Telsonic UK, with new trial parts having features that reflect real world application shapes and weld preparation features for automotive ultrasonic welded joints.
