Plastic Welding advantages for Industrial Maintenance Repairs
Plastic welding is a reliable and cost-effective method for repairing tanks, pipes, and plastic equipment that are commonly used in industrial settings. It is quick, efficient, and requires minimal setup or preparation. With plastic welding, you can be assured that your repairs will be done quickly and correctly the first time around. Let’s take a closer look at the advantages of plastic welding for industrial maintenance repairs.
Time Efficiency
Plastic welding allows for quick repairs to tanks, pipes, and plastic equipment without lengthy setup times or preparation. Additionally, removing large portions of the affected area is unnecessary before beginning the repair process. This ensures that less time is spent on each repair job while still ensuring quality results.
A large plastic tank was brought to our facility in need of repairs due to a large crack in the bottom. After cleaning the area of failure and removing all debris, our technicians we're able to perform a bond test to the plastic and weld the crack back together, saving the tank owner thousands of dollars from having to replace the tank.
Plastic welding offers a robust and reliable bond that is designed to last for many years.
Cost Effectiveness
Plastic welding is an affordable solution when compared to other methods of repair such as soldering or brazing. For example, if you were to use soldering as a means of repair, you would have to invest in additional materials such as flux and solder rod—materials that may not even be needed when using plastic welding. Additionally, with plastic welding there is no need to purchase additional tools or equipment since most plastic welders are portable and easy to use. This makes it ideal for both large jobs and small maintenance tasks alike.
If the repair tools and techniques are cost-effective, so are the repair costs. Industrial maintenance professionals can save thousands of dollars by repairing their plastic tanks, pipes, or equipment rather than replacing them.
Durability
The high temperature used during plastic welding ensures stronger bonds between components than what can be achieved through other methods like adhesive bonding or soldering. Additionally, this high temperature also creates smooth joints between components which reduces the risk of failure due to fatigue over time. As a result, repairs completed via plastic welding are more durable than repairs completed by other methods of bonding materials together.
In conclusion, investing in plastic welding provides many benefits including increased time efficiency, cost effectiveness, and durability when compared with other methods of industrial maintenance repairs on tanks, pipes and plastic equipment. With its quick setup times and portability features, you can find yourself quickly completing jobs with quality results each time; all while saving time and money! Investing in a good quality welder will provide you with years of reliable service that will pay dividends in your organization's bottom line over time!
