Dukane Manual Part No. 403–566–01
Section 1 – Introduction
DPC II Plus
™
Key Features
• Timer Board option provides weld and hold
time control and stores up to eight setup files.
• Press Board option provides control for a
Dukane ultrasonic press and thruster.
• Multi–Point Control Module option permits
one DPC to handle up to eight probes in an
automation environment (DPC II Plus or DPC II).
• Plug and Weld system recognizes when modules
are added or removed from the system
• Process Control Menu automatically
reconfigures the user interface to conform to the
modules or hand probes currently installed.
• 4–Line LCD Display gives the complete
parameter setting to speedup the setup process.
• System Connections are provided for
automation equipment to monitor and control
the ultrasonic welding process.
• Modular Design simplifies upgrades and
increases flexibility as your application
requirements change.
• Flow Through Cooling Tunnel is
thermostatically controlled to reduce thermal
gradients and increase component life. Fan runs
only when required to minimize dust buildup.
• Pulse Width Modulation is Dukane’s patented
circuitry that allows the DPC power supply to
efficiently control the voltage sent to the
transducer in the acoustic stack.
• Linear Ramp Softstart circuitry is provided
allowing the acoustic stack to be brought to
operating amplitude smoothly, minimizing the
startup shock stress.
• Auto-Trac Tuning automatically tracks the
resonant frequency of the acoustic stack (horn,
booster, transducer), and adjusts the generator
output frequency to match it.
