TBW-500: Tubing Welding Machine

The TBW-500 QX Tubing Welding Machine is a benchtop system that welds a variety of tubing sizes and materials. It is designed to weld similar polymer
components such as inner lumen to distal shaft or balloon distal and proximal necks to the catheter shaft.

Key Features

  • Easy programmable touchscreen with up to 16 storable weld configurations
  • Vision system crosshairs feature delivers desired positioning for repeatable, high-quality welding results
  • Vision system tablet PC supports high-resolution settings for detailed viewing of each weld with screen capture and save
  • Automated heat shields protect surrounding catheter components, such as the balloon
  • Quick exchange welding die for simplified setup and change out of die for multiple welding operations
  • Wide range of custom dies for low-profile welds
