Plastic Welding

Tennis shoes, waterbed mattresses, inflatable pool toys, 3-ring binders, IV bags, lawn furniture and prescription drug packaging. If your company manufactures any of these products, chances are you are using a high frequency heating system.

High frequency heating has been part of the plastic processing vocabulary ever since the 1940s. The bonding of plastic using high frequency energy is the industry standard for most plastic materials, and high frequency plastic welding equipment far outnumbers any other high frequency heating operations.

Richardson Electronics is in the unique position of being able to offer not only original parts, but also replacement components for the vast majority of plastic welding systems used today.

Whether you are preheating, bonding or embossing, Richardson Electronics has the power tube and associated components for your high frequency plastic processing system. We offer tubes from world leaders like Amperex, Eimac, ITT, Machlett, Toshiba, Triton, Westinghouse and many more. Our large inventory of new and rebuilt power tubes is second to none.
