MS Ultraschall Technologie GmbH

What MS Ultraschall Technologie GmbH does

MS Ultraschall Technologie GmbH, operating commercially as MS Ultrasonic Technology Group, is a Germany-based industrial equipment manufacturer specializing in ultrasonic welding and cutting technology. The company is headquartered in Spaichingen, Germany, and operates as a majority-owned subsidiary of the Schunk Group, a diversified industrial conglomerate. Its core offerings address the precision joining, sealing, stamping, cut-welding, and riveting of thermoplastics, textiles, nonwovens, and food products across six target verticals: automotive, packaging and food, textile and nonwovens, medical technology, consumer goods, and electrical components.

The product portfolio is organized into five modular lines: MS sonxMAC (custom special machines), MS sonxTOP (series production machines, including the MEMBRANE variant that combines punching and sealing in one step), MS sonxSYS SEAL (packaging systems), MS sonxSYS COMBINE (nonwovens processing systems), and MS sonxCOM (ultrasonic components such as converters, boosters, and horns). Engineering differentiation centers on a proprietary servo-electric drive platform that achieves an 80% energy reduction versus conventional systems, multi-frequency capability across all standard ultrasonic frequencies, and over 90% in-house production that anchors quality and customization.

The business operates a direct enterprise field-sales model with dedicated sales and service hotlines, supplemented by an event-driven demand-generation engine (flagship trade shows including MSV, Fakuma, and ASSEMBLY, plus proprietary MS sonxSHOW customer events) and a multi-language digital presence spanning German, English, Polish, and Italian sites. Revenue is generated from one-time machine sales (special and series machines), recurring components and spare parts, and after-sales service contracts, with quote-based pricing and no publicly disclosed price list. Global reach covers North America, EMEA, and Asia through localized sales support. Andreas Marquart serves as Managing Director (Geschäftsführung).
