Ultrasonic Welding
Ultrasonic welding utilizes high frequency, vertical motion to produce heat and the flow of thermoplastic material at the interface of mated parts.
THG2 Ultrasonic Welder
Vibration Welding
Vibration welding produces a side-to-side scrubbing motion of low frequency energy, but it’s the high amplitude that creates frictional heat at the interface of the parts.
TX120 Servo Vibration Welder
Hot Stamping
Utilizing the precise delivery of heat and pressure, Hot Stamping transfers the text and/or image from a die by depositing dry ink from a mylar carrier.
Staking
During the staking process, a solid or hollow “boss,” or tab, protruding through a mated part is heated to a softening temperature and formed to a head that captures the mated part.
Simple Stake
During the staking process, a solid or hollow “boss,” or tab, protruding through a mated part is heated to a softening temperature and formed to a head that captures the mated part.
Hot Plate Welding
In the hot plate welding process, parts are brought into contact, or nearly in contact, with a heated platen or focused infrared heat source to encourage flow at the joint.
Spin Welding
For assemblies with circular mating surfaces, Spin Welding is a must. During the spin welding cycle, one part is spun against its fixed mating part to produce frictional heat at the joint interface.
Inductive Insertion
Inductive insertion is a process by which threaded metal inserts are rapidly heated through the use of induction and then inserted into plastic parts for a strong and lasting bond.
