  2. Plastic welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastic_welding

    With speed welding, the plastic welder, similar to a soldering iron in appearance and wattage, is fitted with a feed tube for the plastic weld rod. The speed tip heats the rod and the substrate, while at the same time it presses the molten weld rod into position. A bead of softened plastic is laid into the joint, and the parts and weld rod fuse.

  3. Electrofusion welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrofusion_Welding

    It is most commonly used to join polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) pipes. Electrofusion welding is the most common welding technique for joining PE pipes. [1] Because of the consistency of the electrofusion welding process in creating strong joints, it is commonly employed for the construction and repair of gas-carrying pipelines. [2]

  4. Heat fusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_fusion

    HDPE pipe fusion. Heat fusion (sometimes called heat welding, butt welding or simply fusion) is a welding process used to join two different pieces of a thermoplastic. This process involves heating both pieces simultaneously and pressing them together. The two pieces then cool together and form a permanent bond.

  5. Electrofusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrofusion

    Electrofusion is a method of joining MDPE, HDPE and other plastic pipes using special fittings that have built-in electric heating elements which are used to weld the joint together. The pipes to be joined are cleaned, inserted into the electrofusion fitting and then alignment clamps and a voltage (typically 40V) is applied for a fixed time ...

  6. Extrusion welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extrusion_Welding

    Extrusion welding is an attractive process for applications that take advantage of its ability to weld thick sections quickly. For some applications, especially where there are large geometry parts where more traditional plastic welding methods (such as hot plate welding) is not possible, extrusion welding is the only feasible and cost effect option.

  7. Plastic weld non-destructive examination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastic_weld_non...

    The use of plastic pipe is limited in safety critical applications due to the lack of accepted NDE techniques and acceptance criteria. For butt welded plastic pipe, TestPEP proposed the use three different ultrasonic techniques. TOFD with PAUT probes to inspect the majority of the weld, traditional PAUT to look for flaws in the middle of the ...

  8. Spin welding of polymers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_welding_of_polymers

    Like all other welding methods this process utilizes heat, time, and pressure to create a weld joint. Heat is generated via internal friction generated between the two parts when rotating and subjected to a load normal to the weld joint. This frictional heat causes the plastic to melt and a bond to be created. [1]

  9. Implant induction welding of thermoplastics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implant_Induction_Welding...

    Implant induction welding is a joining method used in plastic manufacturing. The welding process uses an induction coil to excite and heat electromagnetically susceptible material at the joint interface and melt the thermoplastic. The susceptible material can be contained in a gasket placed between the welding surface, or within the actual ...
