Martin Frost – UK sales manager, Telsonic UK the wholly owned subsidiary of Telsonic AG Switzerland, talks to AZoM about the ultrasonic torsional welding. In plastic welding, conventional LINEAR ...

New research will optimize the welding, additive and manufacturing process. Arc welding and additive manufacturing are hugely important for creating large metal components relatively inexpensively and ...

Several techniques are available for joining thermoplastic composites, including resistance welding and ultrasonic welding. While resistance welding uses Joule heating inside an electrically ...

Device makers are taking increased interest in product designs and assembly that support closed-loop recycling. A Branson plastic welding process can safely and nondestructively “unweld” plastics used ...

In the tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding process, an electric arc is struck between a refractory electrode made of tungsten and the work piece, while a shroud of inert gas, usually argon, shields the ...

Components for the aerospace or transportation industry are typical applications for fibre-reinforced thermoplastic polymer composites. These components often require the production of large, complex ...
