Fi-Tech Inc., Richmond, Va., has affiliated with Herrmann Ultrasonics, a Schaumburg, Ill.-based
manufacturer of ultrasonic welding systems used for nonwovens, plastics and packaging applications.
Herrmann Ultrasonics offers application laboratories for testing and weld horn manufacturing.
Its Non-Contact/Non-Wear technology enables bonding, embossing, laminating and slitting of nonwoven
