Hook and Loop Welding Guide:
A Strategic Decision Framework
Halco Simplifies Welding Decision-Making With Informative Guide
Adding welding to your sewing operations for hook and loop attachment can transform your manufacturing efficiency, but choosing the right approach requires understanding complex technical and business factors. To provide our perspective, we’ve developed “Hook and Loop Welding Guide: A Strategic Decision Framework for Manufacturers” that provides guidance to make informed welding decisions. This newly updated guide includes:
• Business case analysis including some basic volume thresholds and cost comparisons for welding technologies
• Technology comparisons of thermal, ultrasonic, and RF welding methods with equipment costs, cycle times, and application suitability
• Implementation considerations to guide you from initial evaluation through full production deployment
• Equipment partner resources with referrals to potential partners for different types of welding
This guide provides input to the strategic foundation you need to evaluate whether welding makes sense for your operation and, if so, select the optimal approach based on your production volumes, substrate materials, and business objectives.
