Laser Plastic Welding

With many years of market and process experience we offer creative and innovative solutions for challenging applications especially for laser plastics welding.

Laser plastic welding.

Laser applications laser welding is fast becoming the preferred technique for joining various materials together and plastics are no exception. Laser plastic welding high quality reproducible and completely without solvents laser based joining of plastics has many advantages and replaces traditional processes in many industries such as adhesive bonding and ultrasound or vibration welding. It enables highly efficient and flexible assembly from a small scale production of parts with complex geometries to a high volume industrial manufacturing where it can be easily integrated into automation lines. While laser polymer welding really isn t a new technology it is still not quite as well known or widely adopted as the legacy joining solutions for plastic components such as gluing fasteners snap fits and ultrasonic welding.

Laser plastic welding also often referred to as through transmission welding is a process of bonding plastic using focused laser radiation. The process is very much different than traditional metal welding. The concept involves passing a focused laser beam through an upper laser transmissive part to the interface of the two parts to be joined. High end laser technology evosys develops and manufactures customized laser systems for material processing.

It is the ideal choice for any sized part requiring a clean join including complex 3d contours. Learn how branson laser welding works. With comprehensive theoretical and practical knowledge in a wide range of plastics processing techniques leister is able to confidently apply multi faceted big picture solutions with ease. Laser radiation is shot through an upper transmissive plastic part and the energy is absorbed by the lower layer creating heat at the interface and melting both parts.

Laser plastic welding uses no friction vibration or harsh movement. Leister technologies has been a global leading provider of plastic welding equipment for over 70 years. Superior weld quality higher quality control and the ability to join complex shapes are just some of the features that make laser plastic welding a standout option for numerous industries.
