HiS SYSTEMS

Leading in process stability and precision. Whether you are using a manual work station or require integration into production lines, Herrmann has the solution for extremely strong and conductive metal connections. Fast setup and fewer suspect parts save considerable costs. 

  • Cost savings through higher production quality
  • Long term proven ultrasonic components
  • Digital Ultrasonic Generator 

Ensuring and monitoring quality is the main focus in metal welding. Setup of the process in a stable and reproducible manner and always keeping an eye on it via the graphic visualization - these tasks are met by the HiS product line by means of the VARIO Control controller. In addition, it ensures fast tool change for both the weld tool and the equipment of the application, as well as a space-saving design for easy integration. The well thought-out design guarantees cleanliness when working, accessibility, and maximum safety for the operator.
