What is the difference between an ultrasonic cutting machine and a traditional ultrasonic cutting machine?
Ultrasonic cutting machine is a kind of ultrasonic equipment specially used for cutting, and it is one of the important categories of ultrasonic applications.
The principle is completely different from traditional cutting. Ultrasonic cutting machine uses ultrasonic energy to heat and melt the material to be cut, so as to achieve the purpose of cutting the material.
The characteristics of the ultrasonic cutting machine do not require sharp blades, great pressure, and will not chip or damage the cutting material.
The cutting knife is doing ultrasonic vibration, the friction resistance is very small, and the material to be cut is not easy to stick to the blade. It has obvious cutting effect on frozen, viscous and elastic materials. It is especially effective for cutting food, rubber or objects that are inconvenient to apply pressure.
At the same time of cutting, the cutting part has fusion. Sealing the cutting part can prevent the loosening of the cut material (such as textile material flash). The use of ultrasonic cutting machine can also be expanded, such as digging holes, shoveling, scraping paint, carving, slitting and so on.
Differentiate traditional cutting
Ultrasonic cutting machine is a device that uses wave energy for cutting processing. The biggest feature is that it does not use traditional cutting edges.
Traditional cutting uses a knife with a sharp edge to press against the material to be cut. The pressure is concentrated at the cutting edge, and the pressure is very large, exceeding the shear strength of the material to be cut, and the molecular bonds of the material are pulled apart and cut. Since the material is pulled apart by strong pressure and rigidity, the cutting edge of the cutting tool should be very sharp, and the material itself has to bear relatively large pressure. The cutting effect is not good for soft and elastic materials, and it is more difficult for sticky materials.
According to the ultrasonic cutting machine, the cutting method can be divided into: knife cutting machine and anvil cutting machine. The two cutting methods are suitable for different process conditions and cutting objects.
