• When to Use Friction Welding
  Normal welding doesn't allow the combination of different materials; but friction welding does. Friction welds provide a strong bond without the use of bolts and/or screws or the addition of extra weight. Forging industry dynamics over the last few years have left many customers with lengthy lead...
• The Friction Welding Advantage
  of different materials. Conclusion Friction welding has been successfully used in many industries. Applications include pump, agricultural and construction equipment; electric motors; and the automotive, drilling, marine and printing industries - Fig. 6. The process can provide increased design flexibility...
• Friction Welding for Food Industry Manufacturing (.pdf)
  The challenges of material price versus performance in food manufacturing equipment have gotten tougher with each price increase for raw materials. Friction welding as a way to reduce costs is a viable option for design engineering and new product development. Although the term welding is used...
• Causing a stir in welding
  where pieces are melted and resolidified to form a new and different material structure, friction stir welding produces solid-phase bonds between parts. The plasticized material is stirred and mixes across the joint boundary. This produces welds both strong and ductile, with up to twice the fatigue...
• Welding Options For Molded Parts
  . But not all plastics are weldable, including all thermosets. Welding thermoplastics is best done with a single-resin system. In other words, welded parts should be of the same material. Welds made with different plastics may have poor strength compared to part material. But there are a number...
• Thermography Enhances the Capabilities of Laser Transmission Welding (.pdf)
  is realized. Using this technique, the influence of different material modifications and laser irradiation. parameters on the heating behavior of selected thermoplastics is analyzed. Using an FPA detector with a. spectral sensitivity of 3.4 to 5 µm, the heat conduction during the welding process...
• Materials and Part Design for Vibration Welding
  Virtually all thermoplastic polymers can be welded to themselves utilizing the vibration welding technique. Vibration welding also offers the largest range of welding of dissimilar materials, as well as the ability to weld different molding grades (injection molded, extruded, etc.) to each other...
• Fatigue Life Improvement and Mitigation of Pitting Corrosion Damage of Friction Stir Welded 2219-T8751 Aluminum Alloy by Low Plasticity Burnishing (.pdf)
  Friction stir welding (FSW) is a new solid state joining process for aluminum alloys including those alloys considered not weldable. However, the FSW process produces zones of tensile residual stress at the edges of the stir zone. Recent residual stress studies performed at Lambda Research...
• Techical Reference: Feed-To-Length System (.pdf)
  fine gauge wire, to slabs of steel, to sheets of plastic. Post-feed processes include cutting, welding, scoring, and stamping, to name a few. ./49bc9e05-e753-43f7-b457-3a35ad3325bf Feed-To-Length System. By Joanne Botka. A feed-to-length application is one where a specific amount of material...
• Featured Application: Laser Cutting Viton(R) Rubber Gaskets
  SYNRAD's sealed CO2 lasers are used in a variety of industrial processes including cutting, welding, drilling, and marking. This news brief features news and information from Synrad, and highlights some of the interesting materials and products that are processed daily by Synrad's line of CO2...
