Infrared welding is a specialized technique used for joining molded parts through infrared radiation, offering a contact-free heating process. This method uses either short-wave or medium-wave infrared radiators depending on the specific application. Common components such as 3-D contour radiators, panel radiators, and pin-base lamps emitting short wavelengths (1-2 µm) are employed, or alternatively, metal foils in ceramics emitting medium wavelengths (3-4 µm) can be employed. These machines apply pressure- or path-dependent welding processes, ensuring robust joints suitable for demanding applications. Bielomatik offers a renowned range of motorized machines designed for industries like automotive, home appliances, electronics, medical technology, and sports equipment. Infrared welding's versatility and precision make it a preferred choice across multiple sectors, particularly where exacting standards and efficiency are paramount.

Vibration welding is a technique whereby thermoplastic parts are joined through an oscillating, linear relative motion. This motion generates heat at the contact surfaces, causing the thermoplastic material to become plasticized and subsequently welded together. By incorporating linear vibration welding with infrared pre-heating, the process is enhanced, allowing for more efficient and effective joining of components. This method is widely applied in industries such as automotive, home appliances, white goods, sanitation, and installation technology. The process provides a reliable, strong bond suitable for applications demanding high precision and durability. By understanding the technological nuances, such as oscillation amplitude, frequency, and pressure, professionals can optimize the welding conditions for specific materials and design requirements.
