  • Patent number: 8096462
    Abstract: A modified ultrasonic bonding machine and process uses a sharpened bonding wedge to perform cutting of short material. The sharpened wedge is controlled by the same position control device control used to position the bonding wedge for bonding. The software is modified to permit selection of bonding or cutting, and the bonding wedge is replaced with a cutting wedge. The modified ultrasonic bonding machine allows the operator to use the automated system of the machine to do the cutting, and the precision gained ensures that no damage to the parts is caused by the cutting process.
