Assemble Batteries with High Power & High Storage Capacities


Advanced solutions for Electric Vehicles, Charging Stations, & Energy Storage Systems


Sonobond’s ultrasonic metal welders quickly and reliably weld up to 100 layers of anode and cathode foils – as thin as seven microns – to battery tabs and terminals, without tearing! They also easily weld the large wire bundles and HV terminals required for high power and high storage capacity batteries.


Using our patented Wedge-Reed System – with no external heat, current or fi llers – our


units create strong, solid-state, highly conductive welds, elimi- nating metallurgical defects such as porosity and intermetallics that commonly exist in fusion welds.


This System welds tinned and oxidized metals – a unique ability unmatched by any other ultrasonic system – as well as stranded copper wire bundles up to 100 sq.mm cross section.
