Properties and characteristics of IR fusion joints
Non-contact heating
The components being joined are heated uniformly and
without contact to the ideal fusion temperature by
infrared radiation.
A defined gap between the heating element and the end
faces minimises the risk of contamination of the jointing
surface. Contamination of the heating element by plastic
particles is thus also eliminated.
Reduced bead formation
The fusion bead produced during jointing is considerably
reduced without any loss of quality. Bead-forming
equalisation is eliminated by non-contact softening of the
end faces. The minimal, defined bead is only formed
during the jointing process. The fusion area thus has
improved flow dynamics, low clearance volume and
greater throughput area.
Reproducible jointing processes
The jointing path controls the jointing pressure and thus
the fusion process. The high reproducibility of the joints
is assured by the clearly defined and controlled process
sequence.
Clear, simple operator guidance
Clear, unambiguous operator guidance via the liquid
crystal display leads the user interactively through the
fusion process in logical operating steps.
Welding report/traceability
The welding parameters for the relevant welding
operations can be read out directly via various interfaces
on the machine. It is possible to print these out on paper
(commercially available printers), on labels or to employ
electronic data output (PCMCIA card).
This automatically provides an accurate record with all
the essential fusion parameters for each individual
fusion joint.
