Σύνοψη

The main objective of this dissertation is to carry out a survey on existing methods for the welding of plastic pipes and in addition to choose the materials to design a portable friction welding device for plastic pipes. This machine will be based on a revolutionary friction welding method which refers to a range of techniques that rely on a relative motion between the thermoplastic parts to be joined. While a force is applied between them at the interface, the material is caused to heat and m~1t which will lead to the weld of the two parts.
The area of investigation is focused on the welding methods of plastics and in more thorough examination of the friction welding processes. This will lead to the best solution of the objective and by taking in consideration all the facts the machine will be designed. During my research I investigateu an interesting device at CNE Technology which was the first machine of its kind that was build globally and gave results that were very impressive. My model is going to be pretty similar to it and it will be able to provide in industry faster throughput production times specifically when the work takes place out of the workshop.
