A variety of methods can be used to seal laminated GORE® Membranes to plastic parts, including:
Heat, pressure and time are optimized to create an integral seal between the laminate and the housing. Optimal parameters will depend on the following:
Heat in ultrasonic welding is created by high frequency sound energy delivered by an acoustic tool, known as a horn. The energy is directed toward the desired location for melting the membrane support and/or housing material.
