Patent ID: 11007601

Abstract:
A device for establishing a bonding connection, with a bonding head mounted so as to rotate about an axis of rotation, and a transducer (1) mounted on the bonding head. The transducer (1) has a piezo actuator (5) for generating ultrasonic vibration, in particular a natural ultrasonic vibration. Electrodes are (20) provided on the piezo actuator (5) in such a way that the piezo actuator (5) can be excited by an electric field in a field direction (10) transverse to a polarization direction (9) of the piezo actuator, and as a result of the excitation and of the connection of the piezo actuator (5) to the fastening section (6) and to the tool holder (3), the piezo actuator (5) carries out a shearing motion in a shearing plane (18) formed by the polarization direction (9) and by the field direction (10).
