Amada Miyachi America’s KN-II pneumatic weld head suitable for opposed electrode welding

Amada Miyachi America Inc. offers the KN-II series pneumatic weld head for opposed electrode welding applications that require fast follow-up to prevent material expulsion. It also is suitable for welding ring or annular projections with a perimeter length from 0.40 to 7.0 in. and for microelectronic cap welding applications requiring coplanarity.

The weld head is used to weld sensors, frequency devices, filaments, heating elements, photonics packages, strain gauges, and transducers. With its proprietary fast force follow-up feature, the weld head eliminates weld expulsion, preventing entrapment of ejected materials in projection-welded electronic devices.

Its dual-cylinder design delivers more than 4,000 lbs. of weld force.
