Equipment Principle
High-frequency welding machines (also known as RF welding machines) operate based on the principle of high-frequency electromagnetic fields (referred to as high-cycle waves). A self-excited oscillator generates high-frequency waves, causing the molecular polarization of airbag materials under the influence of the electromagnetic field. The rapid directional alternation of the electromagnetic field induces molecular friction within the material, generating heat. Combined with the pressure from the mold, this process achieves precise welding of the airbag material.
Application Scenarios
- Peripheral Welding of Airbags: Automotive seat massage airbags require evenly distributed small airbags. These airbags, functioning like masseuse hands, undergo peripheral welding via the high-frequency welding machine to ensure airtightness and durability, guaranteeing reliable massage functionality.
- Welding of Inflation Nozzles: Inflation nozzles are critical components of airbags. The high-frequency welding machine ensures robust bonding between nozzles and airbags, preventing air leakage.
Operation Process
- Power On: Connect the machine to a three-phase power supply and turn on the power switch located on the side control box.
- Preheating: Activate the heating module to preheat the vacuum tubes and mold, ensuring optimal operational temperatures for effective welding.
- Mold Installation & Calibration:
- Place insulating material on the lower mold and install the upper mold on the top electrode.
- Test the mold alignment using the trial switch. Adjust the lower mold if bonding is uneven or calibrate the upper mold’s four pillars for horizontal alignment.
- Verify mold-electrode contact using thin paper strips.
- Parameter Setup: Configure welding parameters such as delay time, high-frequency duration, and cooling time to meet specific quality requirements.
- Welding Execution: Position the airbag in the mold and initiate welding. The machine operates automatically based on preset parameters.
- Cooling & Removal: After welding, allow the product to cool and solidify. Once cooled, raise the mold head and remove the welded airbag.
- Post-Processing & Inspection: Conduct cleaning, quality checks, and other post-treatment steps to ensure compliance with standards.
Equipment Advantages
- High Efficiency: Rapid welding process enhances production output.
- Eco-Friendly & Energy-Efficient: Eliminates adhesives, reducing pollution and energy consumption.
- Superior Welding Quality: Ensures airtightness, durability, and visually seamless weld joints.
