Abstract
An arrangement for butt-welding tubular plastic components includes two chucking devices for holding the components in coaxial positions relative to each other and a heating device for heating the ends of the components without contact. The heating device includes a heating element which can be swung between the two chucking devices. The heating element heats the ends of the components without contact by heat rays. The heating element includes a metal plate which is coated with a ceramic coating and which is electrically heatable by heating cartridges.
Claims3
An arrangement for butt-welding plastic material components, especially tubular components and pipes, comprising:
- chucking device for holding said components in coaxial positions;
- a heating device for heating the ends of said components without contact by means of heat rays wherein said heating device comprises:
- a heating element of an electrically heatable copper plate which is coated by a ceramic coating having a thickness of 0.1-0.6 mm and further wherein;
- a plurality of heating cartridges and at least one thermosensor are mounted in said copper plate;
- a support member movable between said chucking devices wherein said heating element is mounted on said support member and further wherein said support member is displaceable in an axial direction of a tubular component axis, and further wherein said heating element includes stop cams wherein said stops cams are displaceable into contact with end faces of said chucking devices.
