What is Advanced Linear Vibration Welder?
An Advanced Linear Vibration Welder is a type of welding machine used for joining thermoplastics. It uses friction caused by vibration to create strong, airtight welds. Here’s a breakdown of how it works:
- Linear Vibration: One part is held stationary, while the other vibrates rapidly back and forth along a straight line (linear) against the first part. This vibration happens at a frequency between 150-250 Hz.
- Frictional Heat: The rapid back-and-forth motion creates friction between the two plastic parts. This friction generates heat which melts the plastic at the joining surfaces.
- Strong Bond: Once the plastic melts, the melted material fuses together, creating a strong bond between the two parts.
Advantages of Advanced Linear Vibration Welding:
- Versatility: It can weld large and complex shaped parts.
- Speed: The welding process is relatively fast, resulting in short cycle times.
- Material Compatibility: Works with a wide variety of thermoplastics, including PA materials.
- Clean and Efficient: There are no consumables, fumes, or emissions involved in the process.
- Strength and Airtightness: Linear vibration welding can produce high-strength, airtight seals between parts.
