Abstract
A welding head for heated tool welding, particularly of thermoplastic materials. The welding head permits independent heating of the welding point on a body and the welding point on a welding part. The welding head has a gripper for receiving the welding part to be welded to the body. It also has a first welding mirror for heating the welding point on the body. A second welding mirror is used for heating the welding point on the welding part. The first welding mirror and the gripper are placed on a common supporting member, which is displaceable by drive means so that alternately the first welding mirror and the gripper are oriented towards the welding point on the body.
