A strong commitment to continuous improvement of production machinery and technology has been the hallmark of Beckmann Converting over the decades.  As business conditions allow, the company makes significant capital investments with a goal of achieving long term improvement in efficiency of operations and quality of finished materials.  In late 2023, BCI invested in replacing the ultrasonic technology and controls in one of its high production laminating machines.

After extended discussions with all of the major suppliers of ultrasonic equipment, BCI decided to commit to the latest ultrasonic bonding technology from Herrmann Ultrasonics, Inc.  With North American Headquarters located in Bartlett, IL, just outside of Chicago, the company demonstrated the flexibility and forward thinking in designing an ultrasonics system and components that would meet the special requirements of BCI's textile laminating requirements.  The upgraded machine was fully commissioned in late 2023 after several months of installation and testing.

"The investment we made in new ultrasonics has proven to deliver on productivity and quality improvements over 2024 and gains are continuing into 2025," reports Klaus Beckmann, founder and President of Beckmann Converting, Inc. The company anticipates migrating this new ultrasonics capability to additional laminating machines in the near future.
