Vibration welders

The assembly of thermoplastic materials using vibration welding occurs when two surfaces that come into contact are melted. The increase in temperature at the welding point needed for the melting process is obtained by rubbing one of the two pieces to be welded.

01 / Vibration Welding

The assembly of thermoplastic materials using vibration welding occurs when two surfaces that come into contact are melted. The increase in temperature needed for the melting process is obtained by rubbing the two pieces to be welded. Pressure is applied to the moving piece in order to keep the parts to be assembled in contact during the welding process. This technology is suitable for welding thermoplastic materials with complex shapes or containing particular materials, offering a valid alternative. In some cases, it is a better option than ultrasound welding.

Areas of
Application
Technical articles
Vibration welding allows the assembly of items with complex shapes and sizes. Nevertheless the mechanical seal that guarantees this type of welding is very high.                                                                             APPLICATION EXAMPLES: welding of diesel filters, welding of automotive pumps.
Toothed belts
For this sector, the use of vibration welding allows the creation of toothed belts and conveyor belts of different sizes. This is made possible thanks to posts designed specifically for each strap.                                        APPLICATION EXAMPLES: welding of dowels for toothed belts, welding of dowels for conveyor belts
Eyewear
The technology that best matches the sector linked to the world of glasses is definitely vibration welding. It has long since become an essential part of the eyewear production process.                           APPLICATION EXAMPLES: welding of the dowels on cellulose tablets, welding of the rods.
