Résumé : |
Hot gas welding has now become an established alternative to vibration and infrared welding. The reasons for this are the mechanically and visually excellent welds obtained and the low-emission, particle-free process. A further development of the welding tool avoids long process times and reduces material degradation. |
Note de contenu : |
- Improvements demonstrated in practice
- Focus on the weld strength
- Fig. : A relatively minor modification to the hot gas tool not only reduces process time but improves weld quality at the same time
- Fig. 1 : The gas outlet zone of a conventional hot gas tool (left) and modified tool (right) with (a) and without (b) tubes as hot gas nozzles
- Fig. 2 : Comparison between the melt layer thicknesses obtained with a conventional and
a modified hot gas tool shows the reduced plasticizing time at a glance (material : Ultramid B3WG6 GPX, process medium : nitrogen, welding rib width : 4mm)
- Fig. 3 : Photos of melted welding ribs with a homogeneous structure due to the new gas channels (a) and crater-like structures opposite the hot gas nozzles in a conventional tool (b, actual component)
- Fig. 4 : With the modi¬fied tool, melt layer thickness is virtually the same for different distances between the hot gas nozzles and welding rib, which means a wider processing window (heating element temperature: 500°C, material: Ultramid A3WG6, process medium: nitrogen, welding rib width: 4mm)
- Fig. 5 : Comparison between the weld tensile strengths of two different materials achieved with a conventional and a modified hot gas tool (process medium : nitrogen, welding rib width : 4 mm) |
