...Robert W. Messler Weld‐bonding combines the physical force‐based process of welding with the chemical force‐based process of bonding or, more properly, adhesive bonding. When done properly, the claim is that a hybrid process results which offers the best of both processes; the high joint efficiency...

...Mike Wilson Discusses the application of robots for automated welding and bonding in manufacturing industry, and the part that laser‐based seam tracking systems have played. During operation, the sensor works as a slave to the robot and so little training is needed. Sensor maintenance is limited...
