Problems solved by technology

Unfortunately, applying strips by hand is a time-consuming and labor-intensive process, increasing roofing costs and reducing the cost advantage gained by choosing thermoplastic roofing over metal roofing
Manual application also increases the chance of error and is not conducive to creating straight and / or parallel and / or equally spaced lines

Embodiment Construction

[0028] figure 1 A first exemplary embodiment of a dual welding machine 100 for welding thermoplastic profile strips 200 to thermoplastic roofing membranes is shown. The dual splicer 100 includes a split nozzle 300 , a splicer platform 400 , a splicer drive unit 500 , and a splicer supply device 600 . Throughout the drawings, the same reference numerals are used to describe similar components of the dual fusion splicer 100 .

[0029] Figure 1Ais a side view of the fusion splicer platform 400 . In one embodiment, the splicer platform 400 includes a platform 410 and one or more wheels 420 . In some embodiments, there is a first wheel 420a and a second wheel 420b. In some embodiments, there is a pair of first wheels 420a and a pair of second wheels 420b. In some embodiments, the pair of wheels 420a straddles the strip of thermoplastic profile 200 , while in other embodiments, the pair of wheels 420a does not straddle the strip of thermoplastic profile 200 . In some embodim...
