B. Lesson Proper
a. Discussion

Fusion Welding: More related to metals and

alloys. Here the base metals are heated to the
melting temperature by mostly electrodes and
joined. The base metal edges are fused.

Plastic welding: It is related to welding plastic

materials to plastic by heat source. Here also
the plastic is heated to the melting
temperature and bonded.

Plastic welding
Plastic welding or heat
sealing is the process of
welding plastic workpieces
together. It is one of the
primary processes of joining or welding
plastics

Several Techniques of plastic welding

Hot gas welding
Also known as hot air welding,
is a plastic welding technique
which is analogous to gas
welding metals, though the
specific techniques are different. Specially
designed heat gun, called a hot air welder,
produces a jet of hot air that softens both parts
to be joined and a plastic filler rod, all which
must be of the same or very similar plastic.
Hot air gas welding is common fabrication
technique for manufacturing smaller items
such as chemical tanks, water tanks, heat
exchanger, and plumbing fittings. Two sheets
of plastic are heated via a hot gas (or heating
element) and then rolled together. This is a
quick welding process and can be formed
continuously.
Free hand welding
With freehand welding, the
jet of hot air (or inert gas)
from the welder is placed on
the weld area and the tip of
the weld rod at the same time. As the rod
softens, it is pushed into the joint and fuses to
the parts. This process is slower than most
others, but it can be used in almost any
situation.
Speed tip welding
With speed welding, the
plastic welder, similar to a
soldering iron in appearance
and wattage, is fitted with a
feed tube for the plastic weld
rod. The speed tip heats the rod and the
substrate, while at the same time it presses the
molten weld rod into position. Speed tip
welding method is a much faster welding
technique and with practice can be used in
tight corners.
Extrusion welding
Allows the application of
bigger welds in a single weld pass. It is the
preferred technique for joining material over
6 mm thick. Welding rod is drawn into a
miniature hand held plastic extruder,
plasticized, and forced out of the extruder
against the parts being joined, which are
softened with a jet of hot air to allow bonding
to take place.
Contact welding
This is the same as spot
welding except that heat is
supplied with thermal
conduction of the pincher tips
instead of electrical
conduction. Two plastic parts
are brought together where heated tips pinch
them, melting and joining the parts in the
process.
Hot Plate Welding
Related to contact welding, this
technique used to weld larger, or
parts that have a complex weld
joint geometry. The two parts to be
welded are placed in the tooling attached to
the two opposing platens of a press. Hot-plate
welding is the process of welding two plastic
parts together using a heated tooling plate. A
weld rib or bead on each component is
brought into contact with the hot plate. Heat
conducts into the weld rib causing it to melt.
High frequency welding
(Often abbreviated HF welding
or RF welding) is a
manufacturing process where
two plastic parts are welded
together using an electromagnetic field. The
resulting join can be very strong – often close
to the original strength of the materials joined.
In some scenarios the weld can be even
stronger than the original materials.
Common products manufactured with high
frequency welding are tarpaulins, tents,
ceilings, advertising banners, waterbeds,
inflatable boats, medical and especially blood
and urine-bags, tensile structures, conveyor
belts, rain clothing etc.
Ultrasonic welding
Ultrasonic welding is an
industrial process whereby high-
frequency ultrasonic acoustic
vibrations are locally applied to
work pieces being held together under
pressure to create a solid-state weld. It is
commonly used for plastics and metals, and
especially for joining dissimilar materials.
Ultrasonic plastic welding is a fast and
efficient technique that creates a strong, clean
and hermetic seal, while increasing
production without compromising quality. It
is used for packaging, medical devices and
other specialized applications that require a
high-quality seal.
Friction welding
In friction welding, the two
parts to be assembled are
rubbed together at a lower
frequency (typically 100-300
hz) and higher amplitude (typically 1 to 2 mm
(0.039 to 0.079 in) than ultrasonic welding.
The friction caused by the motion combined
with the clamping pressure between two parts
creates the heat which begins to melt the
contact areas between the two parts creates
the heat which begins melts the contact areas
between two parts. It starts to form layers that
intertwined with each other that results strong
weld.
Spin welding
is another form of frictional
welding. With this process, one
part is held stationary, while the
other one is rotated at high
velocity. The rotating part is then pressed
against the fixed part with significant force.
Laser welding
Is a fusion welding process in
which two metal pieces are
joined together by the use of
laser? The laser beam provides a
concentrated heat source, focused to the
cavity between the two metal pieces to be
joined.
Solvent welding
Refers to a process in which
a solvent or solvent blend
with no dissolved polymer is
used to create a joint
between two thermoplastic parts. Solvent
welding and solvent cementing are simple and
inexpensive processes that produce durable,
hermetic joints
Plastic welding rod
A plastic welding rod, also known
as a thermoplastic welding rod,
is a rod with circular or triangular
cross-section used to bind two
pieces of plastic together. They are available
in a wide range of colors to match the base
material's color. Spooled plastic welding rod
is known as "spline".

b. Application
Group activity
Direction: Choose the several techniques of
plastic welding in a mastery box.

Direction: Students will create straight

through cable using 568B color coding
arrangement, by following the steps in
creating Straight through cable.
 c. Generalization

Always take into considerations that before

using the cable in connecting actual devices.
It is suggested that you must use a LAN tester
first to check the functionality of the cable.

IV. Evaluation
Students performances will be evaluated/rated using the Performance Rubrics.
(the teacher will explain how the performances will be assessed through scoring
rubrics.)
