Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for connecting two bodies according to which a connection means is arranged between connection surfaces of the bodies to be connected. The connection surfaces and the interlying connection means are held adjacent to each other. At least one of the bodies is mechanically stimulated in order to produce friction and frictional heat. The connection means contains at least one cross-linkable polymer or polymerisable and cross-linkable resin which is converted into a thermoplastic material by means of the frictional heat produced, rendering the connection means and the composite of the two bodies considerably more heat-resistant.
Abstract:
A welding tool, such as a vibration welding tool, includes one or more relief areas for material to flow into during a welding process to help prevent deformation of a substrate that a component is being attached to.

Abstract:
A method and a system for controlling the path of movement of an orbital motion welding system are provided. The locus path of a voltage space vector of a frequency converter feeding the electromechanical system is adjusted by an oscillation amplitude controller with respect to amplitude by using a path controller working in a rotating coordinate system, and a voltage generator. The adjustment is done with respect to the spectro-composition (relative amplitude and phase of the harmonic oscillations) so that the resulting path of movement equals the desired path of movement. The paths of movement obtainable with the invention include all kinds of ellipses including circular and linear paths of movement along one axis as extremes.
