METHOD FOR JOINING A JOINING PARTNER MADE OF A THERMOPLASTIC MATERIAL TO A JOINING PARTNER MADE OF GLASS

摘要

Disclosed is a method for joining a joining partner made of a thermoplastic material to a joining partner made of glass, characterised by the following method steps: producing a thermoplastic joining partner (2) made of a laser-absorbing thermoplastic material; producing a glass joining partner (1) made of a laser-transmissive glass material; superimposing the thermoplastic joining partner (2) and the glass joining partner (1) by applying a joining force (F) to the joining partners (1, 2); heating the glass joining partner (1), in particular using radiation (15); and applying a laser processing beam (3) onto the boundary surface (20) of the thermoplastic joining partner (2)through the glass joining partner (1) into a joining zone (18) so as to melt the thermoplastic joining partner (2) and so as to form a bond between the two joining partners (1, 2) in the joining zone (18) in conjunction with the cooling thereof.
