Abstract

There is provided a portable conduction welding apparatus for conduction welding of thermoplastic composite parts. The welding apparatus includes a support frame assembly, an air pressure assembly, a heating system, and controller(s) having power supply(ies). The air pressure assembly includes a linear pneumatic actuator assembly, a directional air valve assembly, and an air regulator assembly. The heating system includes a first heater assembly with first machined insulation plates, a first machined heater block, first heater element(s), and first thermocouple(s). The second heater assembly includes second machined insulation plates, a second machined heater block, a dovetail connector plate, an air cylinder isolator plate, second heater element(s), and second thermocouple(s). The welding apparatus welds together at a weldline, a first thermoplastic composite part aligned to the first heater assembly and a second thermoplastic composite part aligned to the second heater assembly, by applying force, and conducting heat during a thermal welding cycle.
