Take our extrusion welding course and learn all there is to know about plastic welding processes, from initial preparation to final inspection of the welded joint.

What is extrusion welding?

With extrusion welding, you connect workpieces together by forcing hot extruded plastic into the welding joint. The plastic is heated and moulded using an extruder.

Welded joint preparation

You will learn more about different weld joint preparation on an extrusion welding course.
