Tube closure
Our Tube Terminator pneumatically pinches off and ultrasonically seals tubes that are charged with coolants, fluids or gases.
The one-step process is achieved in seconds. With the ability to crimp and seal copper tubing, without brazing, the Tube Terminator creates an airtight bond, which results in fewer defects, and decreases production time.
The Tube Terminator’s ergonomic design allows the operator to make precise crimps and airtight seals. It is a portable, hand-guided unit, and weighs less than 30 pounds (14kg), making it ideal for spot welding on large parts that bench welders can’t accommodate. It can be hung with a counterbalance for greater manoeuvrability, and is adaptable for robotics use.
The ultrasonic Tube Terminator seals tubing to a preset thickness (usually to single-wall thickness), which eliminates leakage problems that may occur with conventional sealing methods requiring heat, fluxes, solder or filler materials. Integrating the Tube Terminator into production lines provides a cost-effective assembly method that can help save money on labour and consumables.
