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 ...

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

In the medical device world, laser welding encompasses a wide range of applications and part sizes. However, when laser-welding process cannot be fully verified, FDA requires that manufacturers ...

Research center Laser Zentrum Hannover (LZH) is researching ways to make welding thick plates in shipbuilding more reliable. The scientists are developing a multi-laser beam welding process with ...

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 ...
