Subject field(s)
  • Engineering Tests and Reliability

OBS

The pressurized dual seam [testing] method was mentioned earlier in connection with the double-wedge thermal seam method. The air channel that results between the double seam is inflated to approximately 30 lb/in[upperscript 2] for 100 to 200 ft. If no drop in pressure occurs, the seam is acceptable; ...

OBS

The hot wedge or hot knife method consists of an electronically heated resistance element in the shape of a blade that is passed between the two sheets to be sealed. As it melts the surfaces, roller pressure is applied. An interesting variation is the dual-hot-wedge method, which forms two parallel seams with an unbonded space between them. This space is subsequently pressurized with air and any lowering of pressure signifies a leak in the seam.

... continuous systems for forming, filling, and closing flat and gusseted plastic bags are becoming increasingly popular in the resin market. Such systems typically use prefabricated tubing for high strength.... An integrated system for forming, filling, and closing of shipping bags would contain the following stations : unwind unit; compensator roller; hot-emboss marking unit; sealing station for bottom seam; bag shingling; separation of bags; introduction of bag-holding tongs; bag filling; supply of the filling product; sealing station for closing seam....

Subject field(s)
  • Hand Tools
  • Carpets and Floor Coverings
CONT

Carpet seam roller. Extra wide head spans beyond the hot seam to reduce dishing in the seam area. The stationary roller shaft allows forward and backward motion without altering the carpet back position. Use of the roller will improve hot melt transfer into the carpet back for stronger seams while the star roller blends the carpet yarn for better looking seams.

CONT

Rouleau de joint de tapis. La tête extra large dépasse le joint pour réduire le bombage. L'arbre fixe permet le mouvement de va-et-vient sans changer la position de l'endos du tapis. L'usage du rouleau améliore le transfert de la colle à l'endos du tapis assurant un joint solide tandis que les rouleaux à dents répartissent les fils du tapis uniformément.
