Identifying the Best Industrial Equipment Supplier

Hello! My name is Tina. I have spent the past 6 months planning a series of blog posts which will explain the steps you can take to identify the best industrial equipment supplier. I was inspired to learn more about this interesting topic by my son, Gavin. Gavin has recently started work in the industrial supply industry. As he still lives at home, we often have long chats about his day when he returns home from work. The articles I have posted on this blog are based on the many conversations I had with Gavin. I hope you enjoy reading them.

Why Linear Vibration Welding Is Useful for Automotive Application

There are many different techniques used to weld thermoplastic parts. Welding thermoplastic has become popular because this material is used across a wide variety of industries. In particular, the automotive industry relies on thermoplastic parts for many different applications. Thermoplastic parts are used to design vehicle doors, bumpers, fuel tanks and the housing material used for lights.

One of the most effective welding techniques used for thermoplastics is linear vibration welding. This method produces durable and quality welds across many different vehicles.

An overview of linear vibration welding

Linear vibration welding is a mechanical process that joins two separate pieces via mechanical movement. The parts to be welded are first brought together under high pressure. Vibrational movements are then used to rub the target areas together in a linear motion. To prevent the parts from falling out of position, a swing frame assembly is used. The frame contains springs that control the frequency and amplitude of the vibrating parts. The friction and heat generated from the process melt target materials together, and a weld pool is created. The parts are then left to cool and solidify.

Linear vibration welding is useful because it can be used to design precise and durable welds. Whether joining a handle to the frame of a vehicle door or sealing together a broken bumper, vibration welding gets the job done in a quick and efficient manner.

Benefits of linear vibration welding for motor vehicles

For many different vehicles, linear vibration welding can be used to design, fix, and fine-tune multiple parts. The process is optimised for thermoplastics and thus can be applied to most parts of a typical vehicle. In the automotive industry, this welding technique is used in the following ways.

  • Creating complex shapes

Newer vehicle designs are becoming more complicated by the day. Doorframes and bumpers are being designed with complex shapes that appear attractive on the road. To achieve such shapes, vibration welding is used to join large and small parts together. And because the weld is strong and flexible, multiple shapes can be produced.

  • Joining different materials together

Linear vibration welding can be used to join thermoplastic, sheet metal and other similar materials. This feature is important for vehicles because the weld can be used to attach plastic frames to metal finishes in high-end cars. It can also be used to join thermoplastics of varying strengths across the length of a vehicle.

  • No fumes or emissions are released

Because vibration welding is clean and efficient, vehicle manufacturers and mechanics can use it in many different settings. No need to worry about harmful fumes and emissions when designing or repairing vehicles.
