Capabilities of JR Automation’s New Holland Location
The team at the New Holland facility has a wide range of experience designing and integrating automation systems for a variety of industries. However, they have unique experience with automating the process of radio-frequency welding (RF welding).
RF welding, or high-frequency welding, is an advanced plastic welding technique that employs high-frequency electric fields to heat and melt plastic materials. This type of welding is used for materials containing polar molecular construction like PVC and Polyurethanes. RF welding can be used to make strong seams without using adhesives. Some examples of products that may use high-frequency welding in their manufacturing process include medical IV or blood bags, floatation devices, tank liners, and more.
