  2. Induction sealing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_sealing

    As the container passes under the induction coil (sealing head), the conductive aluminum foil liner begins to heat as a result of the eddy currents being induced. The heat melts the wax, which is absorbed into the pulp backing and releases the foil from the cap. The polymer film also heats and flows onto the lip of the container.

  3. Aluminium joining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_joining

    Aluminium alloys are often used due to their high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, low cost, high thermal and electrical conductivity.There are a variety of techniques to join aluminium including mechanical fasteners, welding, adhesive bonding, brazing, soldering and friction stir welding (FSW), etc. Various techniques are used based on the cost and strength required for the joint.

  4. Hermetic seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermetic_seal

    The term can describe the result of some food preservation practices, such as vacuum packing and canning. Packaging materials include glass, aluminum cans, metal foils, and gas-impermeable plastics. Some buildings designed with sustainable architecture principles may use airtight technologies to conserve energy.

  5. Exothermic welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exothermic_welding

    Exothermic welding, also known as exothermic bonding, thermite welding (TW), [1] and thermit welding, [1] is a welding process that employs molten metal to permanently join the conductors. The process employs an exothermic reaction of a thermite composition to heat the metal, and requires no external source of heat or current.

  6. Glass-to-metal seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass-to-metal_seal

    Uranium glass used as lead-in seals in a vacuum capacitor. Glass-to-metal seals are a type of mechanical seal which joins glass and metal surfaces. They are very important elements in the construction of vacuum tubes, electric discharge tubes, incandescent light bulbs, glass-encapsulated semiconductor diodes, reed switches, glass windows in metal cases, and metal or ceramic packages of ...

  7. Thermocompression bonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermocompression_bonding

    2. Typically, thermocompression bonds are made with delivering heat and pressure to the mating surface by a hard faced bonding tool. Compliant bonding [11] is a unique method of forming this type of solid state bond between a gold lead and a gold surface since heat and pressure is transmitted through a compliant or deformable media. The use of ...

  8. Welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welding

    Welding thermoplastic with heat is very similar to welding glass. The plastic first must be cleaned and then heated through the glass transition, turning the weld-interface into a thick, viscous liquid. Two heated interfaces can then be pressed together, allowing the molecules to mix through intermolecular diffusion, joining them as one.

  9. Percussion welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percussion_welding

    The electrical energy for the percussion welding can be supplied by a transformer, as alternating current (or rectified), or by the discharge of capacitors.Because of the short duration of the arc and of the fact that all of the weld energy comes from this arc, the electrical resistance of the parts to be welded does not affect the amount of heat generated at the weld and substances of ...
