TITLE, Sterile Docking Process, Apparatus and System ABSTRACT, A process, apparatus and system for making a sterile connection between two thermoplastic resin tubes is disclosed. The tubes are severed by an array of hot wires so as to form molten tube ends. The array is maintained at a temperature such that ambient air immediately within the vicinity of urging is kept sterile. Then, the tubes are aligned with each other and urged together. As the thermoplastic resin cools a sterile weld is formed.
