Ultrasonic Elastic
Attachment
technology provides
a robust, high-speed
process solution for
creating elasticized
materials that have
zero creep and
eliminate the need
for costly and messy
adhesives. Products
can range from
narrow containment
flaps up to large
waste panels and can
be constructed with
lighter-weight
materials without
concern for adhesive
bleed-through.
The system utilizes
rotary ultrasonics
to attach elastic to
nonwovens without
glue. Manufacturers
can avoid all the
production issues
associated with
using glue. The
process supports
line speeds up to
600 mpm. Even when
line disruptions
occur, the
ultrasonic
continuously attach
the elastic strands.
The end result
allows for maximum
product
performance.
By eliminating glue,
the end-user
experiences a softer
feel and a more
comfortable feel,
improved elastic
performance,
eliminated
creep. The
production line does
not need to shut
down to clean glue
residue. Avoid the
costs associated
with buying and
storing glue.
