Seamsonic 8301/8310/8312
Programmable welding – PFAFF Seamsonic 8301 / 8310 / 8312
Ultrasonic welding machines of the Seamsonic series combine all the physical advantages of ultrasonic
welding with the whole range of technological sewing experience. On the PFAFF 8301/8310/8312 Seam-
sonic the workpiece is held between the sonotrode and the anvil wheel and welded continuously under
pressure. When welding continuously by the ultrasonic method, the material to be welded will be subjec-
ted to rapid changing pressure vibrations. The heat develops because of molecular vibrations beneath the
material surface, for thin materials within the immediate vicinity of the actual weld.

Ultrasonic welding with the Seamsonic is a modern, innovative and economic alternative and complementary
to conventional sewing technology. If assembling of laminates, clothing fabrics with high share of polymer
and technical nonwovens is required and in particular to get, the use of the Seamsonic is the first choice.
 Most of thermo­plastic sheets, laminates, textiles
and non-wovens are weldable *

High, continuous production speed

Lingerie items are comfortable to wear

due to a smooth seam

* The following materials are easy to weld:

Polyamide, Polyester, Polyurethane Polypropylen, Polyethylen.
Generally, pure textiles are to be preferred; mixed textiles containing
up to 30% other fibers may also be used.
The anvil wheel determines the design of the seam

Individualize the design of your seam using the anvil wheel of

the ultrasonic welding machine.

 Welding and Cutting in ONE operation

Single-wheel solution
The proved single-wheel solution was optimized by the use of
steel-sonotrode.This will reduce wear and associated costs greatly.
For our customers the fine C&S-seam with its high strength is the
main argument to buy this class of machines.

Main advantages are:

• Two manufacturing processes in one flow (Cut & Seal)
• Minimum seam width (micro seam) at high firmness
• High wearing comfort of welded materials
• Flat, not applied seams after taping with PFAFF 8303 or
PFAFF 8330
• New: Almost no wearing due to steel sonotrode
(up to 10 mm width

Double-wheel solution

This solution features two anvil wheels (one for cutting and sealing
and the other one to realize the second weld seam) on one post,
but on separate shafts. With this patented solution the load may
be individually adjusted – the two wheels are still running in sync.
This is an absolute unique selling point (USP) for this technology.
The machine may be adjusted better and more specifically to the
material at hand and increases the process reliability when welding
and cutting to weld seams. The minimum distance between weld
seam an cutting is around 1 mm.

Main advantages are:

• All the advantages listed "single-wheel solution"
• Edge cutting and sealing and a second weld seam as
reinforcement IN ONE OPERATION
• Differently shaped anvil-wheels provide optimal seam-quality
• The pressure of both wheels are adjusted separately
• Distance of the edge to of the weld-seam is always
equal to 100%
