The criteria to be considered when choosing the adhesive application method are as follows:<\/strong><\/p>\n BENEFITS<\/strong><\/p>\n DISADVANTAGES<\/strong><\/p>\n BENEFITS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
Points for targeted applications<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Adhesive dots are applied in single or multiple rows manually from a cartridge or automatic dispensing equipment. This is a very versatile method, as it can be used for many types of adhesive, from low-viscosity products to highly viscous or thixotropic pastes.
\nThis method is suitable for applying adhesives to targeted areas of parts and for three-dimensional shapes.
\nRobotic application can be combined with automated mixing\/dosing equipment to achieve uniform application even on complex shapes.
\nFor most applications, the adhesive can be dispensed directly from a disposable static mixer, which means that there is no need to clean the equipment between applications and that it is only necessary to change the disposable mixer. This application method allows the use of fast-curing adhesives.
\nNormally, clamping pressure is applied to the bonded parts when they are brought together to distribute the adhesive over the bonding area. However, this can lead to unevenness in the bonding line or air entrapment. If the bonded substrates are thin or flexible, this can cause an uneven surface or “witness lines,” which are visible on the outside of the bonded parts.<\/p>\n\n

Roller coating for large areas<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Usually associated with low- or medium-viscosity products, a film of adhesive is applied to a substrate using a roller applicator. Small manual roller spreaders are available, but the method often uses automated lines with integrated spreaders.
\nThis type of applicator can also be connected to automated mixing and dosing equipment. The equipment is generally fixed (not portable) and must be flushed and cleaned regularly with solvents, such as at the end of a shift.
\nOnly adhesives with relatively long processing times (slowcure) are normally suitable for this type of implantation.
\nOn flat substrates, a very uniform application of the adhesive can be achieved, with accurate control of the thickness of the bond line. This makes it particularly suitable for bonding large flat panels.<\/p>\n
