Heat Staking Machine

Heatstaking machines are beneficial when joining two parts that consist of different material which cannot normally be ultrasonically welded.Features Although each machine is custom built for its specific application, the following information details typical machine features. Rugged, tubular steel frame construction using the highest quality components Safety guarding HMI /MMI process controls provide easy set up and repeatability of control. Quick disconnect heater elements Palm buttons and emergency stop Controlled air flow Heater Burnout Alarms (optional) Closed loop systems for process monitoring (optional) Light Screens for protection (optional) Touch Screens (optional) Digital timer for weld time and post-cool Auto & Manual Setup mode head down for probe alignment with component Prewired and preprogrammed for optional slide kits, post cool, and fixture clamping. LVDT for slide conformation (optional) Benefits Cost effective Short Cycle Times Tight Assemblies Excellent repeatability and process control Elimination of mechanical fasteners and adhesives Applications Thermal press applications include heat staking, inserting, embossing, date coding and degating. Automotive industry for door panels, map pockets, light-pipe staking, consoles, arm rests and switch clusters.  Medical applications include blood-processing equipment, chemical pumps, fittings, flow meters, IV drug delivery and surgical instruments. Consumer Product applications include personal computers, portable telephones, laser printers, copy machines, video games, speakers and appliance components. Industrial applications include conveyor systems, gears, pulleys, couplings, and motor housings. Thermal presses are also used in Toy Manufacturing and the Sporting Goods industry Works well with Large diameter studs Produces a large strong head Does not have to melt a large amount of material (less time, less force) Avoids sink marks on the opposite side of molded component Enables parts to be re-assembled with self-tapping screws should repair or dis-assembly be necessary
