Production of the design developed to assembly filter parts, optimization of welding and field test

Maden, Hakan (author), Cetinkaya, Kerim (author)

For the joining of non-removable plastic parts, methods such as friction welding, friction-stir welding, ultra-sonic welding, chemical joining, and hot-plate welding are used. Rotary friction welding is generally used for joining the filter parts of water treatment devices. After the rotating friction welding of the filter parts, semi-melted agglomerations are formed in the inner parts. To prevent semi-melted accumulation, a weld joint profile design was developed in the ABAQUS software in a previous study. In this study, injection moulds had been produced according to weld joint profile design. The taken plastic presses were welded with the friction welding machine and the joint was controlled and compared. It is seen that the semi-melted agglomeration was successfully confined. By performing Taguchi experimental method and ANOVA analysis on friction welding machine parameters, the optimum pressure conditions were determined in order to carry out static and dynamic tests according to NSF standards and field tests by producing 1500 pilot products, and it has been put into use. The lifetime of the developed filter depends on the material which was used in the manufacture. The next study is aimed to improve the lifetime of the developed filters.
