SAPHIR SYSTEM – one concept, maximum flexibility
The innovative SAPHIR SYSTEM from Weber Ultrasonics sets standards! Pre-configured for your specific needs, it is available as a manual workstation, a compilation of selected components or a custom solution perfectly adapted to your requirements.

Multifunctional – developing your process with the SAPHIR SYSTEM
The SAPHIR SYSTEM shows its true strengths when connected with other devices. It’s possible to realize machine concepts with up to 25 different functions. These functions range from the actual welding process and visual/mechanical inspections to sorting functions. Our engineers work with you to plan not only the technical concept but also the design of ideal weld seams and joints. Our proven development phase together with extensive testing in our Application Center assure you the optimum technical and economical solution.

Communication – the foundation for intelligence and safety
The communication capability built into the SAPHIR concept forms the basis for simple integration of the welding process in connected production environments. Standardized fieldbus systems such as PROFINET/PROFIBUS or Ethernet can be utilized. Optimum operational safety is ensured by functions that include complete documentation of all processing parameters, automatic backups and remote maintenance.

Die SAPHIR Module

The Feed Unit

The compact and robust construction of the feed unit allows simple integration in any automated system. It is available for ultrasonic welding stacks with frequencies of 20, 30 and 35 kHz, and also as compact unit.

The Saphir Generator – High performance for any welding process

The core of the Saphir system is the digital generator with power of up to 5,000 W. It is available with three standard frequencies of 20 kHz, 30 kHz and 35 kHz. The device, which operates reliably in ambient temperatures from -10 to +40 °C. Thanks to its compact design it can be easily integrated into existing systems. The Saphir Generator is also equipped with surge protection, temperature monitoring and many functions for process monitoring and control.

The Welding Stack

Welding stacks consist of converter, booster and sonotrode. They are always developed to fulfill customer or product-specific requirements with the help of Finite Element Method (FEM). High-quality materials such as titanium, CPM, aluminum and stainless steel are used in construction. The Quick-change module with indexed positioning increases flexibility and reduces set-up time.

Everything under control – Touch PC Control Unit

The touch control module (available in 7-inch and 15-inch models) comes with extensive, intuitive-use software for Windows which gives you complete control over all major functions in the Saphir system at all times.
Visualization of the welding process simplifies the determination of optimum process parameters.

Features:

– Documentation of all relevant processing parameters
– Interface for data communication
– Remote maintenance
– Automatic back-up function

SAPHIR CONTROL 4.0 – A software as individual as your products

The multifunctional control and process visualization is provided by a modern touch panel PC (TPC) with Windows-based control software SAPHIR CONTROL 4.0. It allows quick access and provides intuitive user navigation. The pre-defined operating modes of Time, Energy, Absolute Distance and Relative Distance simplify parameter setting for the welding process.
With the software you can track cycles, manage additional devices, store up to 200 welding programs and document production.

SAPHIR Accessories – Rotary index table, feed systems, enclosures and soundproofing

The SAPHIR SYSTEM has a variety of components and accessories which allow customization to your needs. We offer a complete assortment of optional equipment including individually produced workpiece holders, adjustment plates, feed systems such as rotary indexing tables, pressure clamps, and safety components such as noise insulation, protective barriers and safety glass.
