Machine overview

Welder for stretch ceilings and finishing components

SUPRA MAX was designed primarily for PVC film used in stretch ceiling production. The machine is ideal for joining material, producing neat welds and preparing components that require accurate positioning on the worktable.

It can also be used for other finishing operations involving films and technical materials, such as pool components, interior decorations, lighting, signage or products requiring a durable, neat joint.

Precise linear, spot and shaped welds

The large, flat worktable makes it easier to lay out film and guide the material accurately beneath the electrode. SUPRA MAX is therefore well suited to components where weld appearance, repeatability and control of component position are important.

The machine can produce small spot welds, continuous linear welds and welds of various shapes, depending on the tooling used and product requirements.

Safety and process control

Zemat high frequency welding machines use systems designed to support operator safety, protect key machine components and maintain process stability. These solutions help protect the electrode, material, generator and work area, while process monitoring systems enable fast detection of irregularities and help maintain repeatable welding parameters.

  • AntiFlash™ – a fully solid-state, maintenance-free system that protects the electrode and material against electrical arcing.
  • WCS™ – a system for monitoring welding cycle parameters.
  • ATS™ – a system for automatic adjustment of HF/RF output power.
  • EMC mains filters designed to protect the customer’s electrical network against electromagnetic interference.
  • Enclosed and shielded welding chamber designed to effectively protect the operator from exposure to electromagnetic fields.
  • The machine complies with current machinery safety requirements and applicable standards. Compliance is confirmed by complete Technical Documentation, an EC/EU Declaration of Conformity supplied with each machine, and CE marking.
  • Optional safety light curtains for an increased level of operator protection.

Measurement Laboratory

For machines manufactured by Zemat, mandatory electromagnetic field (EMF) emission measurements are carried out in the working environment. The tests are performed by the Mobilab laboratory operating within Zemat Technology Group. The measurement laboratory works in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025 and holds PCA accreditation, confirming the quality of its services and the reliability of measurement results.

HF Smart Control™

HF Smart Control™

Zemat HF welding machines are designed in accordance with European requirements for machinery safety and energy efficiency. The applied solutions support process stability, reduce energy losses and help maintain repeatable production parameters.

HF Smart Control™ includes:

  • Power consumption optimization
    Systems based on industrial programmable logic controllers (PLCs) measure and regulate the energy used during the welding process in real time. This allows power consumption to be matched to actual process requirements and helps reduce unnecessary electricity use.
  • ATS™ automatic tuning system
    ATS™ automatically adjusts and monitors welding process parameters, helping maintain the correct cycle conditions and use the supplied energy efficiently.
  • High-efficiency HF generators
    Modern HF generators provide stable operation, reduce thermal losses and support longer component service life.
