Process Comparison: Ultrasonic vs. Thermal Insertion

Ultrasonic Insert Installation Thermal Insertion & Heat Staking
* Best for single-insert high-volume runs * Best for multiple inserts processed simultaneously
* Generates heat via high-frequency mechanical friction * Generates heat via precise, direct thermal transfer
* Ultra-fast cycle times (often under 1 second per insert) * Slower cycle times, but optimized by multi-point tooling
* Restricted to a single plane per cycle * Easily accommodates complex, multi-plane geometries
* Ideal for robust parts that can withstand high-frequency vibration * Ideal for intricate, delicate components or sensitive electronics
* Creates a high-strength bond with excellent material displacement * Delivers a low-stress bond with minimal residual plastic tension
