Vibration Welding Tooling for IP Assembly

Vibration Welding Tooling for IP Assembly

Automotive dashboard assembly, means instrument panel (IP of automotive), is mostly welded with linear vibration welding method, because of which vibration welding fixture becomes the critical equipment for dashboard welding operation.

As an interior part of automotive, dashboard assembly is visible to passengers, thus it requests high protection to surface A, while it has to ensure the welding strength for reliable quality welding result. The difficulty of dashboard welding not because of only its big measurement, but because of the complex part structure design, which bring hug challenge to the welding tooling engineering and manufacturing.

Technical description

Automotive dashboard assembly, means instrument panel (IP of automotive), is mostly welded with linear vibration welding method, because of which vibration welding fixture becomes the critical equipment for dashboard welding operation.

As an interior part of automotive, dashboard assembly is visible to passengers, thus it requests high protection to surface A, while it has to ensure the welding strength for reliable quality welding result. The difficulty of dashboard welding not because of only its big measurement, but because of the complex part structure design, which bring hug challenge to the welding tooling engineering and manufacturing.


Dashboard assembly consists of different parts which concerned to welding including dashboard top panel, PAB chute (passenger air bag chute), window channel, IP carrier / frame, reinforce pad, instrument shell, glove box assembly, etc. The design of welding tooling not only involves in the parts measurement and construction, but also have to consider the specification of machine, especially the vibration welding ability and interface measurement of machine.



To design vibration welding tooling for you, MP Sonic must requests information including parts 3D data, machine specification information and parts assembly procedure instrument if there is.
