Robert Soloff received his first patent in 1962 (for a sonic spray nozzle) and went on to invent the process of ultrasonic plastics welding one year later. After founding Sonics in 1969, and through the next 5 decades, he has continued his pioneering work in the field of ultrasonics, accruing an impressive 13 patents in his own name and overseeing an additional 18 company patents.
