About Westphal Wavetec
Westphal Wavetec GmbH from Ahrensburg near Hamburg has been developing, manufacturing and servicing ultrasonic systems for plastics processing since 1989. The portfolio includes ultrasonic generators (300–1200 W, 20–40 kHz), hand welding devices, piezoceramic ultrasonic transducers and custom-made sonotrodes made of titanium and aluminium. In addition, the company offers contract welding of thermoplastics, repair of ultrasonic equipment – also third-party brands such as Früchtling and Herfurth – as well as loaner devices. In the metalworking sector, sheet metal parts, individual parts, welded assemblies and complete assemblies including electronics are manufactured; materials include stainless steel, aluminium, steel, brass, bronze and Makrolon. Other pillars are hardware logistics, projects & prototypes with funding support, and the charging infrastructure brand STEER.E. Customers come from plastics processing, the bulk goods and food industries, and e-mobility.
