This summer, Emerson will launch the first model in its next-generation Branson Polaris Ultrasonic Welding Platform, an innovative, entry-level system that provides flexibility and control capability to meet diverse manufacturing needs. This model, the Branson Polaris Integrated Welder (IW), offers intuitive and ergonomic design to streamline operation and serviceability with actuator, power supply and process controls in a single unit.
The Polaris IW has a broad application scope with enhanced welding performance. With a sleek, all-in-one design, the welder takes up less space and can be efficiently integrated into automated production lines.
“Flexibility and control are key to gaining a competitive edge in today’s dynamic market, and manufacturers need solutions as advanced as their challenges,” says Kerryn Harrington, global product manager at Emerson. “The new Branson Polaris IW ultrasonic welder is an exciting first step in our latest initiative to bring welding innovation, scalability and efficiency to the plant floor. As the line expands, the next-generation Polaris ultrasonic welding platform will give manufacturers an innovative, fully configurable system designed to adapt to new demands, so they can continually optimize operations and achieve peak performance now and in the future.”
Upcoming Polaris product releases will offer scalable, automation-friendly systems with configurable controls, power supplies and software that allow manufacturers to customize their systems for a wide range of applications. With advanced connectivity, operators can analyze data, optimize performance and ensure compliance as production environments evolve.
Manufacturing engineers can choose their configurable Polaris platform components or work with Emerson welding industry specialists to help select the right mix of components for the most effective and most stable material-joining solution the application requires.
