• plastics welding — A uniting of thermoplastic, i.e., non setting plastics of similar or different type using heat and pressure and with or without the addition of plastic of a similar kind (filler material). The welding proceeds within the temperature range of… …   Dictionary of automotive terms

• welding — Art of fastening metals (or plastic) together by means of interfusing them. They are heated to a suitable temperature. In some cases pressure is used to bond them together. In other cases a filler material (solder) is used to join them. Among the …   Dictionary of automotive terms

• Plastics engineering — encompasses the processing, design, development, and manufacture of plastics products. A plastic is a polymeric material that is in a semi liquid state, having the property of plasticity and exhibiting flow. The nature of plastic materials poses… …   Wikipedia

• Welding — is a fabrication process that joins materials, usually metals or thermoplastics, by causing coalescence. This is often done by melting the workpieces and adding a filler material to form a pool of molten material (the weld puddle ) that cools to… …   Wikipedia

• Welding joints — are formed by welding two or more workpieces, made of metals or plastics, according to a particular geometry. The most common types are butt and lap joints; there are various lesser used welding joints including flange and corner joints. Contents …   Wikipedia

• Ultrasonic welding — is an industrial whereby high frequency ultrasonic acoustic vibrations are locally applied to workpieces being held together under pressure to create a solid state weld. It is commonly used for plastics, and especially for joining dissimilar… …   Wikipedia

• Plastic welding — is the process of welding plastic parts together. There are several techniques:Hot gas weldingThis is a plastic welding technique which is analogous to gas welding of metals, though the specific techniques are different. A specially designed heat …   Wikipedia
