Infrared Plastic Welding
Branson infrared plastic welding systems offer clean, reliable joining for 3D moldings with the scalability you need for a range of applications.
Branson infrared plastic welding systems offer clean, reliable joining for 3D moldings with the scalability you need for a range of applications.
Branson’s infrared plastic welding systems offer clean-joining of similar and dissimilar materials, ideal for delicate parts. A highly precise process and 3D control provides aesthetically pleasing welds into complex product designs.
With Laser Plastic Welding and Plastic Vibration Welding, Emerson has the broadest portfolio of joining technologies and provides unsurpassed technical support.
Infrared welding utilizes intense infrared beams to quickly heat plastics immediately before joining. Emerson’s Branson technologies produce the clean, clear welds, advanced 3D molding capability, superior aesthetics and energy- efficient production that today’s manufacturers demand
During infrared welding, both part halves are held rigidly in position near an infrared emitting platen.
The platen then emits powerful infrared light into both parts along the determined joint path, usually a circle or line. The platen is quickly removed, and the part halves are immediately driven together and allowed to re-solidify under pressure
Infrared welding is frequently chosen for applications with complex and irregular shapes. Infrared is a useful joining technology in applications requiring strong hermetic seals or when flash and particulate need to be reduced. Infrared welding allows for clear-to-clear joining without the use of additives.
Non-Contact Plastic Welding for particulate-free and aesthetically clean joints on medium-sized parts. Key features include enhanced design flexibility to weld along contours and 3D parts, along with clean weld bead aesthetics.
IR-80/50 for Medium Parts
Specifically designed to weld medium-sized plastic parts, particularly components made of high temperature-resistant plastic.
IR-170/80 for Large Parts
Specifically designed to weld large-sized plastic parts that require advanced joint strength and more.
Create complete, virtually invisible welds for any-shaped plastic part, with no use of solvents or adhesives.
Flexible solutions that create durable seals without the need for glues, clips and yarns in product designs.
Weld components for large and small household appliances, from washers to kitchen and bath appliances.
