The Branson 101-149-053 Gold Booster is a gold booster used for ultrasonic welding horns at 20 kHz frequency. The Branson 101-149-053 Gold Booster has a 1:1.5 gain ratio. The Branson 101-149-053 Gold Booster has a 1/2-20 mounting thread and a length of 5.4 inches.[1]
What it is
How it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedIn an ultrasonic welding system, the booster is mounted between the converter and the horn. The converter transforms electrical energy into high-frequency mechanical vibration. The booster amplifies this vibration and transfers it to the horn, which applies the vibration to the workpiece. The booster is tuned to resonate at the operating frequency to maximize efficiency.
Where it fits in the process flow
General reference — not yet source-verifiedThe Branson 101-149-053 Gold Booster integrates into the ultrasonic stack of a packaging tool such as a wire bonder or die bonder. The booster is a component within the larger ultrasonic assembly that performs solid-state welding during semiconductor assembly.
