Welded Transparent Panel
Overview
- Made by
- Supply chain / partners
- Materials
- Welded PVC or POE panel, Reinforced top band, Printed logo band option
- Finish options
- Clear, Frosted, Printed border
Selection tips
- Welding temperature and pressure decide seam clarity; unstable settings leave a milky white line.
- The top band takes the load: make it double-layer or add webbing.
- Print before welding: printing afterwards lifts because film tension is uneven across the seam.
- Against a sewn panel: welding is more waterproof but cannot be repaired, and it restricts the shape.
Manufacturing process & quality control points
- 1
Panel cutting
Supply chain / partnersPanels are die-cut from the canopy film to the dome pattern. Bubble panels are deeper and fewer than standard panels, so nesting on the cutting die is checked to control material waste.
Quality control points
- Panel dimensions · Template check per panel · First article + 1 pc per 2 h
- 2
Welding into the canopy
Supply chain / partnersPanels are high-frequency welded into the canopy. Weld width is checked, because a narrow weld peels and a wide one goes opaque and yellow.
Quality control points
- Weld width and appearance · Visual plus caliper on defined points · Per lot, AQL 2.5 (ISO 2859-1 general level II)
- Weld strength · Peel test on weld samples per batch · Per batch
- 3
Top band and logo application
Supply chain / partnersThe reinforced top band is applied and any logo band is printed by the supply chain.
Quality control points
- Band position and adhesion · Visual vs approved sample; tape test (ISO 2409) · Per lot, AQL 2.5 (ISO 2859-1 general level II)
