After all, joining technology is of central importance in almost all <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ruch.de\/en\/applications\/\">applications<\/a>. When selecting the connection, we focus entirely on your requirements: Should the connection be detachable or not? What forces act on the system? Are there additional requirements for tightness? These questions need to be clarified before we decide on a connection technology.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]With Snap-Lock technology, we create a stable connection that can be released again. We achieve this by equipping the two components with a tongue and groove connection &#8211; it acts like a clip fastener and snaps together. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ruch.de\/en\/expertise\/process-expertise\/#bonding\">bonding<\/a> also makes it possible to achieve an inseparable joining between two or more molded parts made of the same or different materials.<\/p>\n<p>Another technology is NOVAweld<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>.
