A first plastic part is fixtured in a first fixture, and a second plastic part is fixtured in a second fixture for welding to each other. The first plastic part can be independently moved relative to the second plastic part in each of three directions: 1) linearly in a direction parallel with a z-axis, 2) linearly in a direction parallel with an x-axis, and 3) circularly in a circular arc about an axis parallel with a y-axis.

Machine and method for welding plastic parts together

A plastic welding machine for welding plastic parts together is capable of controlling the weld force vector in both magnitude and direction.

Welding machine for controlling direction and magnitude of weld force vector during a plastic welding operation

A method of reinforcing a support mat includes at least one extruder applying at least a first stream of weld-forming material over at least one seam formed between upper and lower, interconnected, at least partially overlapping, panels on the top of the mat and at least one automated extruder applying at least a second stream of weld-forming material over at least one seam formed between the panels on the bottom of the mat.

Methods for reinforcing a multi-panel support mat

Controlling direction and magnitude of weld force vector during a plastic welding operation

In a process for welding plastic parts together, an IR shield redirects IR radiation emitted from a heater of a heating tool so that IR radiation which would otherwise be directly incident on certain portions of a plastic part and/or on other parts of the heating tool is avoided.

Limiting dispersion of IR radiation from a heater element during plastic welding

Systems useful for reinforcing a support mat over at least one seam formed between upper and lower panels of the mat include at least one extruder configured to apply weld-forming material over the seam(s) to form at least one weld atop the seam(s) and at least one electronic controller associated with the extruder.
