Ultrasonics Ultrasonic welding utilizes high frequency, vertical motion to produce heat and the flow of thermoplastic material at the interface of mated parts. Read More » Vibration Vibration welding produces a side-to-side scrubbing motion of low frequency energy, but it’s the high amplitude that creates frictional heat at the interface of the parts. Read More » Hot Plate Welding In the hot plate welding process, parts are brought into contact, or nearly in contact, with a heated platen or focused infrared heat source to encourage flow at the joint.

During the spin welding cycle, one part is spun against its fixed mating part to produce frictional heat at the joint interface. Read More » Staking During the staking process, a solid or hollow “boss,” or tab, protruding through a mated part is heated to a softening temperature and formed to a head that captures the mated part.
