On the Design and Analysis of Acoustic Horns for Ultrasonic Welding Teflon Encapsulated O-Ring

Article Preview

Abstract:

The acoustic horn plays a very vital part in high energy ultrasonic machining, and its design is critical to the quality and the efficiency of ultrasonic machining. This paper performs the analysis and design of acoustic horns for ultrasonic welding Teflon encapsulated O-ring by employing ANSYS finite element software. Firstly, the theoretical dimensions of the horns are calculated. Moreover, their natural frequencies and amplitudes are obtained through the simulations of ANSYS.
