ABSTRACTA rapid electromagnetic induction bonding system has been developed that joins composites, plastics, metals, and combinations of these materials. The equipment is self-contained, low power (100–400 watts) and portable. Gangs of bonders have been used as a seem welder to rapidly join plastic reinforced composite and sheet metal. Structures can be bonded in a factory or in the field. Bonding times for laboratory specimens have been cut by a factor of 10 to 100 times compared to standard press or autoclave bonding. This type of equipment allows for applying heat directly to the bond lines and/or the adherends without heating the entire structure, supports, and fixtures of a bonding assembly.The bonder's portability and low power requirements allow for its use on site in any type of climate with power supplied by a variety of portable sources.

To determine the accuracy of the readjustable punches for separating operations (perforation + punching out) of sheet-metal forming, the accuracy parameters were analyzed using the random balance method using the method of experiment planning. Analytical dependencies are obtained to determine the values of deviation of the outer and inner contour dimensions of perforated and punched out sheet parts. From the dependencies obtained, it is possible to estimate and predict the value of deviation in the dimensions of the resulting part at any time during the operation of the punch. Practical recommendations on the calculation of the actuating dimensions of the working elements (stamping punch, matrix) of readjustable punches are offered.
