8. Mistakes to avoid

Ultrasonic welding technology is complicated:

• With a minimum of training, an operator can master production changes;

• the design of parts must comply with certain rules specific to this technology;

• ultrasonic welding remains the fastest and most efficient (95%);

• consumables are often unnecessary;

• all thermoplastics can be assembled;

• other materials can be assembled with a thermoplastic film or foil acting as a "glue" (provided that the materials are all compatible with each other);

• all thermoplastic textures can be assembled (with varying degrees of ease and cleverness, but they can be).
