Hot Plate Welding 101: Process, Materials, and Design

In this webinar, we’ll walk through the fundamentals of hot plate welding—how the process works, where it’s commonly used, and what engineers should know when evaluating it for an application.

We’ll spend some time on material considerations, including how different resins and fillers can affect the welding process and what to look for when determining whether materials are compatible.

What we will talk about:

• What is hot plate welding
• Common applications for the process
• Material considerations, including resins, fillers, and compatibility
• Basic part and joint design considerations
• Strengths and limitations of hot plate welding
• How hot plate welding compares to other plastic welding technologies
• Live Q&A
