 INTRODUCTION

You need to assemble two thermoplastics, sheets, tubes, flexible membranes...

You are looking for a weld with external material addition to increase the mechanical strength of your assembly.

The technology of hot air welding with an external material input is simple and economically accessible to all; it can be a solution for the realization of :

  • tanks, containers and all boiler-made assemblies;

  • flexible, watertight butt-joint coatings.

We'll help you make the right choices:

  • the right equipment ;

  • the right materials ;

  • a favorable environment ;

  • the ability to qualify your welders and welding procedures.

This sheet is the sequel to Hot-air welding of thermoplastics without external material input [FIC 1252] . Please refer directly to this sheet for the basics and principle of hot air welding. We only deal here with the specific case of external material input using a hot-air flashlight or hot-cord extruder.
