Knowledge disk: Weldability of plastics

Joining technology is of particular importance for plastics processing. For joining injection molded parts and extruded plastic parts, we use ultrasonic, hot plate or hot air technology, depending on the application. We receive tasks from all areas of the plastics processing industries.

Our industry solutions

Automotive exteriors

For automotive manufacturers and suppliers, we design and produce equipment for the processing of particularly high-quality plastics, such as those frequently found in the automotive industry. Did you know that? The best result when placing and welding holders for sensors in the inside of painted bumpers is achieved with ultrasonic. The paint is not damaged in the process.
