Benefits of Plastic
Welding
Plastic welding for manufacturing has many benefits, hence its application in several industries and rapid prototyping. Below are a few benefits:
Additional Consumables
There is no need for extra consumables such as fasteners, solvents, or glues. Therefore, there is a reduction in complications, risks, and costs accrued due to extra consumables.
Compatible with any Joint Shape
The process is suitable for parts of any shape. Development in the different welding techniques has made it possible to work with complex shapes. Therefore, you can weld parts with curved or irregular shapes with ease.
No Need for a Ventilation Environment
Some welding techniques used for plastics don’t produce fuses, e.g., vibration-based welding. Therefore, there is minimal need for protective gears and infrastructure that aids ventilation.
Cost-Effective Option
The technique requires a low need for consumables and a low cycle time. Therefore, it is more effective than other joining methods such as riveting.
Highly Versatile Welding Choice
It is suitable for parts of any size or dimension. This is unlike other joining methods. For example, riveting requires the parts to have a minimum size depending on the rivet. So, the only thing required is to find the most suitable one among all techniques for welding plastic parts.
Lighter than Using Mechanical Fasteners
Welding plastics do not require many consumables. Consequently, this reduces the weight of the final welded products, unlike other methods that use mechanical fasteners and rivets contributing to the overall weight.
The Weld is Permanent
The welded joint is permanent, in contrast to adhesives or other plastic joining mechanisms. Therefore, it is a reasonable choice when you don’t want the internal component to be compromised.
Plastic Welding Process
The use of thermoplastics in manufacturing brings a need for precise joining processes that can manage intricate joint lines. Plastic welding, much like metal welding, creates a permanent, molecular bond between thermally sensitive components, eliminating the need for adhesives or mechanical fasteners. At Foxx Technologies, we offer various plastic welding methods, with hot gas welding being one of our most common processes.

Ideal Plastics for Welding Applications
There are many plastics options on the market that are ideal for your varying challenges. Plastic welding services are typically performed using these polymer-based materials:
Polytetrafluoroethylene
is resilient, stable and features the ability to withstand exposure to harsh chemicals. Consider this as an alternative to metal piping you may using.
Metal brazing
involves something called capillary action, which is the melting of a filler metal at a low temperature to join two base metals.
Polypropylene
is known for its elasticity and high chemical resistance. This plastic is often seen in consumer product packaging, and is also used for projects in the textiles industry.
Chlorinated polyvinyl chloride
is known for its ability to withstand high temperatures. It’s often used for hot- and cold-water piping as well as industrial liquid handling.
Polyvinyl chloride
is a lightweight, rigid plastic known for its strength and fire retardant properties. It can be used in many of your construction projects.
Polyvinylidene fluoride
is a durable, strong plastic known for its ability to withstand harsh chemicals. We have used it as a solution for our clients in the medical device and semiconductor industries.
