Heat Stack Welding SPM

S.P. Engineers' heat staking technology allows for the joining of components to plastic molding. The staking process joins materials without the need for vibration. This results in no cosmetic damage to class A surfaces. S.P. Engineers' heat staking is an ideal solution for industries that require sensitive plastic parts to be joined, such as Automotive, Electronics, and Medical.

ADVANTAGES OF HEAT STAKING MACHINE

Thermal Presses heat the staking post/insert while applying pressure axially to permanently set the parts. Advantages of the thermal heat staking/inserting process include

• Reliable permanent inserts.
• No particulates or noise.
• Multiple level inserting/heat staking.
• Multiple size inserts.
• Handles slippery thermoplastics.
• Easier maintenance in a low-tech environment.
• Cost-effective.
• Short Cycle Times.
• Tight Assemblies.
• Excellent repeatability and process control Elimination of mechanical fasteners and adhesives.
