The Ultimate Guide to Welding Methods for Technical Textiles

Welding is a widely used form of material joining in the technical textile industry. It is used on thermoplastic-coated textiles, i.e., textiles with a polymer coating that melts under heat.
There is a huge variety of thermoplastics, but the ones most used in the technical textile industry for coating include: PU, TPU, TPO, PVC, and various alloys.

If you work with thermoplastic coated technical textiles in your industry, this guide is for you.

In this welding guide you’ll learn about:

• Welding considerations and options for different applications and industry manufacturers
• A detailed overview of the welding process
• The advantages of welding in production
• Materials and factors influencing weldability
