Engineers have many options for welding small parts made from nonferrous metals. These include laser welding, resistance welding, soldering and ultrasonic welding. The latter process, ultrasonic welding, offers numerous advantages. It creates solid-state metallurgical bonds with high conductivity. It does this without producing arcs, sparks or fumes, and without melting the metals. In ultrasonic metal welding, high-frequency vibrations are applied to the parts under pressure.

Ultrasonic welding has long been a proven process for welding plastics and nonferrous metals. There are two techniques for ultrasonic welding, longitudinal and torsional, which differ based on how vibrations applied to the parts. Longitudinal, or linear, ultrasonic welding is the more common technique. However, the process has limitations in terms of the size, shape and orientation of parts that can be welded.

It’s the late 1930s, the war effort is starting to get pretty real for the US, and Philip Marlowe, private eye, is assigned to a seemingly innocuous case that ends up being more than he bargained for. Sound familiar? Well not only is Philip Marlowe a famous hard-boiled genre character that’s nearly 100 years old, he’s also played by the sometimes-capable Liam Neeson. I was immediately drawn to the premise, but a lack of passion and follow-through bring Marlowe down to Earth.
