This video showcases a large custom designed Thermal Press machine being used to perimeter seal 2D bioreactor bags. It features a reverse actuator to accommodate the weight of the thermal head.
Choosing Between Pneumatic and Servo Actuators for Thermal Assembly
A Practical Guide from Thermal Press International In precision thermal assembly – whether joining, sealing, or staking thermoplastics – actuator choice influences consistency, performance, and validation capabilities. Pneumatic and servo actuation each offer distinct advantages, depending on material characteristics, regulatory expectations, and production goals. Pneumatic actuators remain the industry standard
