Abstract
A new indigenous spin welding machine for thermoplastics with advanced mechatronic controls is conceptualised, designed in detail and a prototype is developed for joining of two thermoplastic parts in axis-symmetrical fashion. Manual spin welding machines for joining thermoplastic parts in axis-symmetrical manner are generally obtained by modifying drill type machines which causes the relative frictional rotation of parts under contact pressure exerted manually through a lever. The contact under relative motion causes the heat generation and results into fusion of parts. The joints from such machines exhibit inconsistency inherent in the manual process. The indigenous prototype machine is able to perform spin welding process with consistency. It enables the operator to choose and control the process parameters such as rotation velocity, time of rotation, spin pressure and cooling pressure.
