Various welding methods

Hot air welding is also called hot air welding. Compressed air or inert gas (usually nitrogen) is heated to the required temperature through the heater in the welding gun and sprayed onto the plastic surface and the welding strip, so that the two are melted and combined under a small pressure. Plastics that are sensitive to oxygen (such as polyphthalamide, etc.) should use inert gas as the heating medium, and other plastics can generally use filtered air. This method is often used for welding plastics such as polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyoxymethylene, polystyrene, and carbonate.

Hot pressure welding uses heating and pressure to press the metal wire and the metal welding area together. The principle is to make the metal in the welding area plastically deform by heating and pressure, and at the same time destroy the oxide layer on the pressure welding interface, so that the contact surface between the pressure welding wire and the metal reaches the atomic gravitational range, thereby generating attraction between atoms and achieving the purpose of bonding.

Hot plate welding adopts a plate-drawing structure, and the heat of the heating plate machine is transferred to the welding surface of the upper and lower plastic heating parts by electric heating. The surface is melted, and then the heating plate machine is quickly withdrawn. After the upper and lower heating parts are heated, the molten surfaces are fused, solidified, and combined into one. The whole machine is a frame form, consisting of three plates: the upper template, the lower template, and the hot template, and is equipped with a hot mold, upper and lower plastic cold molds, and the action mode is pneumatic control.

Ultrasonic metal welding uses high-frequency vibration waves to transmit to the two metal surfaces to be welded. Under pressure, the two metal surfaces rub against each other to form a fusion between the molecular layers. Its advantages are fast, energy-saving, high fusion strength, good conductivity, no sparks, and close to cold processing; its disadvantages are that the welded metal parts cannot be too thick (generally less than or equal to 5mm), the weld position cannot be too large, and pressure is required.

Laser welding is an efficient and precise welding method that uses a high-energy-density laser beam as a heat source. It is one of the important aspects of the application of laser material processing technology. Generally, a continuous laser beam is used to complete the connection of materials. Its metallurgical physical process is very similar to electron beam welding, that is, the energy conversion mechanism is completed through a "key-hole" structure. The equilibrium temperature in the cavity is about 2500°C, and the heat is transferred from the outer wall of the high-temperature cavity to melt the metal surrounding the cavity. The keyhole is filled with high-temperature steam generated by the continuous evaporation of the wall material under the irradiation of the beam.

The beam continuously enters the keyhole, and the material outside the keyhole flows continuously. As the beam moves, the keyhole is always in a stable state of flow. The molten metal fills the gap left after the keyhole is removed and condenses, and the weld is formed.

Brazing is a welding method in which a molten filler (brazing material) with a lower melting point than the workpieces to be connected is heated to a temperature above the melting point to make it fluid enough to fully fill the space between the two workpieces by capillary action (called wetting), and then the two are joined together after it solidifies. Traditionally in the United States, temperatures above 800°F (427°C) are called brazing (hard soldering), and temperatures below 800°F (427°C) are called soft soldering (soft soldering).

Manual welding is a welding method that is performed with a handheld welding torch, welding gun or welding clamp.

Resistance welding is a manufacturing process and technology that uses heating to join metals or other thermoplastic materials such as plastics. It is a method of welding by applying pressure through electrodes after the workpieces are assembled and using the resistance heat generated by the current passing through the contact surface of the joint and the adjacent area.

Friction welding is a solid phase welding method that uses mechanical energy as energy. It uses the heat generated by the friction between the end faces of the workpieces to make them reach a plastic state, and then top forging is used to complete the welding.

Electroslag welding uses the resistance heat generated by the current passing through the slag as a heat source to melt the filler metal and the base material, and after solidification, a strong connection between metal atoms is formed. At the beginning of welding, the welding wire and the welding groove are short-circuited to start the arc, and a small amount of solid flux is continuously added. The heat of the arc is used to melt it to form liquid slag. When the slag reaches a certain depth, the feeding speed of the welding wire is increased, and the voltage is reduced, so that the welding wire is inserted into the slag pool, the arc is extinguished, and the electroslag welding process is turned on. Electroslag welding mainly includes melting nozzle electroslag welding, non-melting nozzle electroslag welding, wire electrode electroslag welding, plate electrode electroslag welding, etc. Its disadvantages are that the input heat is large, the joint stays at high temperature for a long time, the weld is easy to overheat, the weld metal is a coarse crystalline cast structure, the impact toughness is low, and the weldment generally needs to be normalized and tempered after welding.

High-frequency welding uses solid resistance heat as energy. During welding, the resistance heat generated by high-frequency current in the workpiece is used to heat the surface of the workpiece welding area to a molten or nearly plastic state, and then (or not) upsetting force is applied to achieve metal bonding.

Hot melt is a type of connection that is made by heating the parts to their (liquid) melting point.
