The machine uses ultrasonic technology and guarantees safe and efficient processing of varying material thicknesses up to 3 mm and pleat heights from 10 mm to 50 mm without retooling. Depending on the material, customers can choose from various sonotrodes (titanium/steel) and anvil wheels. The C&S DUAL application variant (welding and cutting in ONE operation) is also available. The PFAFF 8317 is offered in the versions BASELINE and SYNCHRO (with a self-moving sliding table synchronized with the welding process).
A special version with tape feeder enables the joining of non-thermoplastic materials. Via the tape feed adhesive tapes are fed reliably. The adhesive tape is positioned between the two end folds and ensures the “joining”.
