QT-420x6.35-OD8.7

Quik-Tek Inserts

QT Series Inserts

The advantages:
Ideal for thermoplastic parts
Especially designed for thermal installation
Screw-locked and low-tension anchoring
High pull-out values
Efficient installation due to single-spindle, 
multiple spindle or automatic machines with preheating device
Designed for thermoplastic plastics (PPS. ABS、PP etc.)     


Installation:
The QT thread insert is heated to the melting temperature of the plastic.
As a result of the heat transfer upon insertion,the plastic is plasticised for a short
time and flows into the undercut of the thread insert.Upon cooling,a low-stress
interference is realised.

What is ultrasonic inserts and heat-melt inserts ?

In the field of manufacturing and assembly, the demand for efficient and reliable connection methods has led to the development of various technologies. Among them, ultrasonic inserts and heat-melt inserts have become popular choices, especially in applications that require a strong and durable connection.

Learn about Ultrasonic Inserts
Ultrasonic Inserts are components specifically designed for joining thermoplastic materials by ultrasonic welding. The process involves applying high-frequency ultrasonic vibrations to the insert, which generates localized heat due to friction. When the insert is pressed into the thermoplastic material, the heat softens the plastic, allowing the insert to embed securely. The result is a strong bond that can withstand tremendous mechanical stress.

One of the main benefits of ultrasonic insertion is that it creates clean, precise joints without the use of additional adhesives or fasteners. This not only reduces production costs but also minimizes the risk of contamination, making ultrasonic insertion an ideal choice for industries such as automotive, electronics and medical devices.

Combining the advantages of technology
The combination of ultrasonic and heat-solder insertion technologies provides manufacturers with a versatile toolkit for achieving robust connections. By leveraging the strengths of both methods, companies can optimize their assembly processes to meet specific requirements. For example, ultrasonic inserts can be used in applications where speed and precision are critical, while heat-solder inserts can be used where additional mechanical strength or the ability to accommodate threaded connections is required.
