Hot Plate Welding for Automotive Plastic Parts: An Engineer’s Guide to Stronger, Repeatable Joints
Automotive plastic parts are getting larger, lighter and more complex. The welding process therefore has to do more than join two molded halves: it must control melt formation, collapse distance, alignment and pressure with repeatable precision. For water tanks, lighting housings, air ducts, battery-related enclosures and other sealed assemblies, hot plate welding remains one of
