Morphology

uniter = unite (transparent) = unite + er

Built from 'unite' (to join) + '-er'; a device that joins parts is a straightforward agent/instrumental sense of the verb.

Etymology

Uniter comes from the verb unite, which comes from Latin unus meaning 'one' and is related to the English word unit. So a uniter as a machine is something that joins separate parts into a single 'unit', which explains its modern meaning of combining materials into one piece.
