An improved performance welding bar placed in a welding machine for the welding of thermoplastic material of low and high density, suitable for both the lower welding bar (11) and the upper welding bar (12) among which bars (11, 12) the material is moved along by at least one pair of lower (14) and upper (15) supply rollers, placed on top of each other, the two welding bars (11, 12) moved backwards and forwards between themselves by a control group (20), wherein each welding bar (11, 12) is made from a magnesium-zinc aluminum alloy, within which the percentage of zinc to be found is between 5.0-6.5% and the percentage of magnesium to be found is between 2.0-3.0%. According to the invention the use of a magnesium zinc aluminum alloy is provided for, for a welding bar in a welding machine of thermoplastic material, wherein the bar is continually activated by a forward and/or backward movement with regards to a second similar welding bar.
An improved performance welding bar placed within a welding machine for the welding of thermoplastic material, suitable for each of the two lower (11) and upper (12) welding bars, among said bars (11, 12) said material is moved along by at least one pair of lower (14) and upper (15) supply rollers, placed on top of each other, said two welding bars (11, 12) being moved backward and forwards between themselves by a control group (20), wherein said welding bar (11, 12) is made from a magnesium-zinc aluminum alloy, the weight percent of zinc is 5.0-6.5% and the weight percent of magnesium is 2.0-3.0%.
A method of welding a thermoplastic material which comprises employing a magnesium-zinc aluminum alloy as a welding bar in a welding machine where said welding bar is continually activated with a forward and/or backward movement with respect to a second welding bar.
