Machine for butt-welding two thermoplastic sheets together - locks one sheet in place, positions other sheet, presses heated blade against first sheet, removes blade and presses both sheets together
Machine for butt-welding two thermoplastic sheets together - locks one sheet in place, positions other sheet, presses heated blade against first sheet, removes blade and presses both sheets together
Butt welding machine for sheets of polymers from polypropylene, polyethylene, PVC, PVdf etc. has a two-part clamping table (preferably divided along its centre line) with opened or closed joint for the weld position; a locking beam is positioned over each part of the table to hold plastic components there under pressure; operating devices beneath the table have an orientating and heated blade which former positions the plastic components from underneath and moves to/from the open joint; the blade can enter the joint gap and thereby heat the components when the joint is closed; the blade can be dropped down on to a frame and pressure members press together the components under preset adjustable pressure for a pre-set/adjustable time. One half of the table is fixed to the machine frame; the other half has low friction guides on the frame so that the joint position can be opened/closed by pressure members which move one half to/from the other. Angle arms swivel the orientating blade beneath the moving half of the table; the heating blade and pressure cylinder are mounted on a low friction guide on the main frame and between stops across the direction of operation. ADVANTAGE - The machine design is simple and inexpensive. It functions at least as well as existing designs.
