When you hear the word welding, your first assumption will probably be something related to metalworking. That's an understandable assumption, as welding is typically used to join and fuse separate ...

While there are several different kinds of tools for welding plastic, not all of them are created equal. Like any tool, ...

When you think of welding two objects together, your first assumption may be that the objects in question are made of metal. Indeed, metal welding is the most common kind, but that doesn't mean it's ...

The last two decades have seen substantial improvements in ultrasonic plastic-welding machines. Bench-top models feature proportional-valve controls, linear encoders, line-voltage regulation, internal ...

If your project requires joining two pieces of plastic and need a stronger connection than you'd get with glue you can weld two pieces of plastic together by using a rotary tool to spin a plastic rod.

Bondic has created a new liquid plastic welding tool that basically offers a pocket-sized instant 3D printer which is powered by batteries. Watch the demonstration video below to learn more about the ...
