PURPOSES

The objectives of this Production Engineering Measure (PSM) are to:

1. Demonstrate the capability limits of ultrasonic welding to join com- binations of metallic materials of interest to the electron-tube in- dustry. This part of the work will be limited in that it will not continue exhaustive attempts to weld those combinations which might prove particularly difficult to join.

2. Analyze the welding requirements for three specific electron tubes. The three tube types selected are the Type 608OWB, 58lUWB and 6205. These were selected by the U. S. Amy Electronics Materiel Agency because they are widely used in military equipment, and have a record of failures due to improperly welded joints.

3. Prepare fixturing and tooling for the specific electron tubes, so that ultrasonic welding may be used in the manufacturing process.

U. Weld the parts required to assemble electron-tube mounts for the three tube types, and evaluate.

5. Build production ultrasonic welding equipment which will enable an electron-tube manufacturer to make the welded connections in a broad range of electron-tube types.

6. Install the ultrasonic welding equipment in a production company, and produce on a pilot basis with that company's personnel, a limited lot size of each of the three tubes for subsequent evaluation in ac- cordance with applicable military specifications.

NARRATIVE AND DATA

ELECTRON-TUBE STODY

1. Tooling

The tooling designed and fabricated during the last report period was based upon previously developed welding and assembly sequences (Third Quarterly Progress Report). Ir implementing the various fixtures, minor modifications in assembly Svequence (Table I) and in the tooling enabled im- proved results. Combinations of tools in place for welding are shown in Figures 1 through 5«

The anvil tips were designed to bolt in various positions to a common copper block, which was bolted in turn to a steel base plate that could be mounted in any one of several locations on the welding head anvil support. This arrangement facilitated both alignment between the combi- nations of sonotrode and anvil tips and clearance for the components being welded. Typical of modifications to anvil tips, for component clearance purposes, were the relief area ground into the rear side of anvil tip Al (Figure 1) and the small reduction in width of the projection on anvil tip A2 (Figure 2). These alterations in no way affected or changed basic tooling design concepts or welding procedures.

One anvil tip (A3 in Figures 3 and 5) was designed to do the work previously performed by two tips. This tip was mounted on the copper block through two slotted bolt holes, and its lateral movement permitted the weld- ing of two sets of Junctions.

Sonotrode tip Tli and anvil tip Al* (Figure k) were tested in weld- ing of connector material and stem lead wire. The anvil tip width was re- duced from 11/16-inch to 9/16-inch, in order to overcome tip resonance at the welding frequency which produced only marginally satisfactory welds.

2. Welding

The tooling was used in producing the ultrasonic ally welded Type 608OWB electron-tube mount shown in Figure 6. Two stages of sub-assembly are shown in Figure 7. All components to be welded (Table II) were taken from the present Type 608OWB mount production line and were ultrasonic ally welded in the "as is" condition, as required for proper electron-tube manu- facture, without additional cleaning or preparation. All welding was accom- plished on the "Sonoweld" ultrasonic welder Model W-600-TSR. Settings of power, clamping force, and weld pulse time have been recorded for each Junc- tion to assist in start-up of electron-tube production.

IN COR PO RAT KP

In connection with welding of connectors and stem leads in glass stem assemblies, the glass fractured between the lead feed-through sections because of ultrasonic energy stresses transmitted through the stem lead. Many components involving glass have been ultrasonically welded without en- countering this problem. It is possible that the physical condition of this particular glass (composition and temper) contributed to fracture, and the matter will be investigated durirg the rjext reporting period. Preventive measures such as damping and mass loading being impractical ir this case, it was found that putting crimps in the stem leads with specially made pliers (Figure 8) solved the problem by the formation of sharp discontinu- ties which reduced the transmission of ultrasonic energy along the lead. Quality welds were then made on a reproducible basis without glass fracture, and the crimps did not alter spacing between stem leads or appear to intro- duce other factors which might affect tube performance.

Experience gained during the program was reviewed as requested by USAHMA, with the result that specific suggestions were submitted con- cerning possible work scope modifications, for demonstrating even more dramatically the successful application of ultrasonic welding to the manu- facture of electron-tube mounts.

CONCLFSIONS

Successful ultrasonic welding of the 72-weld lype 608OWB electron- tube mount has demonstrated the suitability of the equipment and process for fabricating complex assemblies.

PROGRAM FOR NEXT REPORTING PERIOD

Engineering representatives of Chatham Electronics will r view the welding of the I^pe 608OWB electron-tube mount at Aeroprojects, in order to establish the suitability of all assembly and welding details for manufacturing production quantities of this mount. Investigation will be made into whether the physical condition of the glass in stem assemblies contributed to the glass fracturing during welding of connectors and stem leads.
