Bonding has long been the standard in joining hybrid materials. However, this is changing. Polymer Stir Welding (PSW) now offers a process that is not only more sustainable and cost-effective but also sets new benchmarks in strength.
Our latest tests prove: PSW achieves significantly higher strengths than adhesive bonds in all tested material combinations — in most cases more than twice as strong. And all this without pre-treatment, mixing processes, or long curing times.
PSW vs. bonding – at a glance:
- Faster & simpler: Just position and weld, no complex preparation needed.
- Less process effort: No dosing, no clogged nozzles, no post-treatment.
- Higher strength: Immediately loadable joints with significantly improved mechanical properties.
- More sustainable: No adhesives, lower energy consumption, fully recyclable.
The technology switch is not a question of if – but when.
Those still using adhesives today are missing out on potential. PSW is not just an innovative process but a scalable solution for series production, lightweight construction, and the circular economy.
