Making Filters Functional With Telsonic’s Ultrasonic Technology
There are many different items which play an important part in our lives but are to all extent and purposes invisible to us as we conduct our daily routines. Filters, and the process of filtration, is but one example of this scenario where everyday products which we consume, medicines, medical procedures, fuel, and environmental protection measures all rely on filters and filtration technology to keep us nourished, productive, healthy, and safe. This informative article by Telsonic’s Martin Frost, looks at the different types of filter media, their applications, and discusses how ultrasonic welding, cutting, and sealing processes have become a key part in the production of different filter types.
Filters are everywhere. A wide range of industry sectors use different types of filters within their processing plants or as part of their manufacturing procedures for chemicals, fuels, hydraulic oils, water and food products. The medical sector requires many filter products from face masks, respiratory filters, sleep apnea machine filters to micro filters for bodily fluids including blood and diagnostic systems. Occupational Health is another big area for filter protection against particles and gases within certain working environments and in addition, filters are an essential safety items for firefighters and military operations to ensure clean breathing air. A number of different filters are also used in the vehicles we drive, from domestic cars to mass transportation and earth moving vehicles, keeping the oils and fuel clean and the cabin air pollen free. Domestic vacuum cleaning has now evolved to have more filtration with primary and secondary filters. A common factor with all these filters is that they are mostly single use, ideally easily recyclable and are required in high volumes.
