8-Mar-16S.Movchan Straw manufacturing and QC26 Parameters optimization after straw machine upgrade

8-Mar-16S.Movchan Straw manufacturing and QC27 Ultrasonic generator + sonotrode: standard mode vs cooling mode T=26 degree f: (39300±50) Hz T=35 degree f: > Hz F=180 gram, W=60 a.u. V=10 mm/sec Near the same => cooling mode was chosen F=4 kG

8-Mar-16S.Movchan Straw manufacturing and QC28 Parameters optimization: Force: F=(190±30) gram Ultrasonic power: W=(40±10) a.u. F= 180 g V=10 mm/sec W= 40 a.u. V=10 mm/sec

8-Mar-16S.Movchan Straw manufacturing and QC29 Parameters optimization: Speed: No dependence V=(10-20) mm/sec F= 180 g W=40 a.u.

8-Mar-16S.Movchan Straw manufacturing and QC30 New straws after straw machine upgrade

8-Mar-16S.Movchan Straw manufacturing and QC31 New straws: #3644 and #3645 F=4.2 kG -> 5.0 kG F=4.2 kG -> 3.5 kG F=210 gram, W=60 a.u. V=10 mm/sec

8-Mar-16S.Movchan Straw manufacturing and QC32 New straw: #3643 F=4.5 kG -> 4.0 kG F=200 gram, W=60 a.u. V=10 mm/sec

8-Mar-16S.Movchan Straw manufacturing and QC33 New straw: #3646 F=4.0 kG -> 4.0 kG F=180 gram, W=60 a.u. V=10 mm/sec

8-Mar-16S.Movchan Straw manufacturing and QC34 New straw: #3652 (check Ribbon option) F=205 G, W=60 a.u. V=10 mm/sec F=2.5 kG -> 3.0 kG

8-Mar-16S.Movchan Straw manufacturing and QC35 New straw: #3658 (check Ribbon option) F=4.0 kG -> 3.0 kG F=300 G, W=40 a.u. V=10 mm/sec

8-Mar-16S.Movchan Straw manufacturing and QC36 Conclusion Tensile machine in operation “Old” straws: Al straw (53 samples after test dP=3 Bar): F=( ) kg Cu+Au straw (48 samples, not tested at dP=3 bar): F=( ) kg, for 2 samples F=6.0 kg and F=6.4 kg Good seam: - PET alloy on both seam sides - F>4.3 kg (dL=2 mm) “New” straw: the same parameters
