How FreeWeld™ Technology Simplifies the Welding Process
FreeWeld™ technology is an innovative solution that redefines high-frequency (HF) welding processes. By using a patented welding electrode, it completely eliminates the need for a traditional ground foot in open linear HF welding machines. This groundbreaking approach not only simplifies the production process but also removes many technological constraints associated with classic grounding.

Traditional Ground Foot – Limitations and Risks
In standard open-frame HF welding machines, operator safety is ensured by a special ground foot that closes the circuit between the welding electrode and the worktable. To effectively shield against electromagnetic emissions, this ground foot must adhere perfectly flat to the working surface. However, this limits the number of material layers that can be welded and prevents working with products featuring spatial elements, such as valves, grommets, or protrusions. An improperly set ground foot not only diminishes the quality of the weld but can also pose safety risks to the operator.

Modern Alternative: FreeWeld™ Technology
FreeWeld™ addresses these challenges by allowing a full HF welding process without the use of a ground foot. Developed and patented by Zemat Technology Group, this technology is available exclusively in their machines. The key component of this system is the special FreeWeld™ electrode, compatible with HF welding machines produced by Zemat Technology Group. Once installed, the PLC system automatically recognizes the electrode, locks the ground foot in the upper position, and the hf welding machine is immediately ready for safe operation without the risk of electromagnetic emissions.
Technological and Production Benefits
FreeWeld™ technology significantly enhances the flexibility of the welding process. It enables working with materials that have irregular surfaces and with pre-assembled products containing spatial elements. Additionally, it eliminates the need for perfect material placement on the table, which was previously necessary for proper ground foot function. Working with an HF welding machine in this way becomes faster, more consistent, and less prone to operational errors.
Top-Quality Welds – Stronger and More Aesthetic
One of the most significant outcomes of using FreeWeld™ is the superior quality of the welds. This technology is characterized by two parallel lines of weld, which are not only aesthetic but also functional. The melted polymer is encapsulated between the lines, enhancing the strength and smoothness of the seam. Consequently, the finished product not only looks better but is also more durable and resistant to damage.
Exclusivity and Safety
The FreeWeld™ system is available exclusively in high-frequency machines manufactured by Zemat Technology Group. It is designed with maximum operator safety and work efficiency in mind. By eliminating the source of electromagnetic emissions, these devices meet the highest workplace safety standards. Investing in this technology is a step towards more modern, automated, and energy-efficient production in industries such as automotive, medical, and technical plastic component manufacturing.
