Weber Ultrasonics AG has been awarded the “Innovative through Research” seal of approval by the “Stifterverband für die Deutsche Wissenschaft” (Donors’ Association for the Promotion of Science and Humanities in Germany). With this seal, the Stifterverband honors researching companies in Germany.
As a technology-driven company, the continuous development of our products and solutions plays a central role at Weber Ultrasonics. We are involved in numerous research projects and work closely with universities, research institutes and associations. This enables us to provide our customers with innovative ultrasonic solutions that stand for efficient processes and first-class results worldwide.

When you think of respiratory and surgical masks, which are currently produced predominantly in Asia, ultrasonics is probably not the first thing that springs to mind. Yet ultrasonic welding plays an important roll in making these products. As an experienced technology provider for mask production equipment, Weber Ultrasonics AG now manufactures respiratory and surgical masks in Germany. This is made possible by the fast and active support of other companies as well as the huge dedication of its own employees.

Weber Ultrasonics AG has been confirmed as a Critical Infrastructure Operator (CRITIS) for the measures taken against the spread of the SARS-CoV-2. Critical infrastructures are organizations or institutions with important significance for the state community, in the event of their failure or impairment supply bottlenecks, significant disruption of public security or other dramatic consequences would occur.
With our ultrasonic technology, products and daily work we can actively contribute to protect our environment from further spread of the disease of the coronavirus. We are proud of that.

Parallel to the introduction of precautionary measures for the protection of the health of our employees and business partners, we have made every effort to ensure that we can continue our sales and service support and to supply you with quality products from our company in the needed quantities and on time.

Our sales and service teams will be pleased to be at your personal disposal in our home offices. To contact us, please use the mobile numbers and e-mail addresses of your known contact persons directly.

Heike at the switchboard will be happy to help if you do not have the mobile number at hand.

High production speed, increased quality and optimum process reliability – not only since the outbreak of the COVID-19 disease manufacturers of hygiene and medical products made of nonwovens rely on ultrasonic welding. Although wearing a face mask as self-protection for an infection with viruses is controversially discussed, ill persons can contribute to the protection of their environment by wearing a suitable mask. Ultrasonic welding systems from Weber Ultrasonics can be perfectly integrated into automated processes for the mass production of all types of mouth and respiratory protection masks made of nonwoven materials.

Fresh, pre-packaged salads are among the most perishable foods due to their composition of cut plant parts and an often high natural germ load. At worst they can cause diseases or even food poisoning if the cold chain is interrupted on the way to the consumer. The MultiVegiClean project has developed a novel cleaning process that cleans lettuce and vegetables more effectively than before by using ultrasound. This ensures fewer germs in the final product, and also much lower water consumption.

The year is drawing to a close. We want to take this as an opportunity to thank you for the trust you have placed in us and for the enjoyable cooperation we have shared.

Warmest season´s greetings from all of our employees to you. We wish you a very merry Christmas, a year full of positivity, successes both professional and private, and of course good health.

The aim of the US4Greenchem project was to develop a biorefinery concept for the complete utilization of lignocellulosic biomass, which is energy- and cost-efficient and based exclusively on green technologies. By the combined ultrasonic and enzyme treatment of lignocellulosic raw materials, a substrate for sugar-based biotechnological applications can be obtained. At the end of March, the first pilot-scale trials were successfully carried out at the pilot plant in Finland.

Jonas Münz (16) and Jakob Rehberger (17) won for their project “ultraTEC – and the burr is gone” the prize of the Federal President at this year’s national competition “Jugend forscht”. Based on the patented Weber ultrasonic deburring system, the two students developed a method for Ulrich Medical in Ulm to deburr pedicle screws used in spinal injuries. Congratulations!

In collaboration with conveyor and process engineering system specialists Maschinenfabrik Dr. Ing. Gössling, Weber Ultrasonics developed an ultrasonic cleaning concept that cleans the screws individually in a continuous process.
