Hotmelts, also referred to as hot-melt adhesives, are used in almost all production areas. Typical application areas can be found in the automotive area for gluing in the paper rolls in the oil filter housing, or in electrical engineering for the extrusion coating of components and electronics, as well as in furniture manufacturing and the textile industry.
Our volumetric dispensing systems are designed exactly for these applications and meet the increasing demands of reproducibility of position, shape and dispensing volume of the applied adhesive, sealant or casting material. Patented dispensing heads with heatable gear wheel pump systems and their integration in the path control guarantee precise volume application, regardless of the dispensing speed and flow properties of the material. Thus, all common hotmelts, like polyamides, polyurethane or polvoefine (reactive or non-reactive) can be processed at temperatures of up to 210°C.
Liquid Seals: Electronic and mechanical assemblies are increasingly being sealed according to the "form in place" (FIP) method. Instead of inserting a conventional gasket (punched gasket, molded seal, endless product), the sealing mass is dispensed directly onto the component in its liquid state. The savings potential, due to the FIP method, is tremendous: No tool costs for component changes, no warehousing costs, no waste. The liquid seal immediately adheres to the component, so slipping is impossible. Transport security is automatic. Manual mounting by hand with all its imperfections and risks can therefore be avoided. Usually, fasteners, guides, webs and grooves aren't necessary.
The volumetric dispensing systems from DATRON are setting new standards in the area of industrial dispensing technology, and are therefore meeting the increasing requirements for the reproducibility of position, shape and dispensing volume of the applied adhesive or casting material. Our highly-precise dispensing systems ensure optimum production quality and the maximum level of process reliability. Integration of the dispensing head in the path control guarantees that the applied amount has a precise volume, regardless of dispensing speed and the flow properties of the material.
Process-sure Bonding: Bond materials accurately, with high strength and permanence.
Whether in the automobile, aerospace, rail and shipbuilding industries, or in the food, medical, hygiene or electronics areas - bonding is done in all industrial sectors.
The standards for new products with regard to stability and less weight are constantly increasing. Within manufacturing technology, this leads to completely new challenges for automatic gluing. The volumetric dispensing systems from DATRON are setting new standards and are meeting the increasing demands for repeatability of position, shape and volume of the applied adhesive, sealant or casting material. Our highly-precise dispensing systems ensure optimum production quality and maximum level of process reliability. Integration of the dispensing head in the path control guarantees that the applied amount has a precise volume, regardless of dispensing speed and the flow properties of the material.
All common 1-component sealants, adhesives, cast masses, EMC shields, hotmelts or abrasive materials can be applied accurately this way - even in very thin beads. In the critical starting/stopping areas, we ensure optimal transitions due to special control functions.
Dispensing of silicones, polyurethanes, MS polymers and hotmelts: Silicones are certainly the most common single-component, air-hardening sealants. They generally demonstrate extraordinarily high UV and weather resistance and some are heat-resistant up to 250°C.
Polyurethanes are also universally used, since they not only have sealing properties, but are also elastic and have bonding functions. In addition, they are characterized by their tensile strength/elongation.
MS polymers (MS=modified silane) are elastic sealants with good UV and weather stability, can usually bond without priming on many substrates, are highly elastic, even at low temperatures, and can be painted with solvent-containing and dispersion paints.
Hot-melt adhesives, also referred to as molten adhesives, are solvent-free and are solid at room temperature. They are applied hot on the bonding surface and form a bond as they cool. This group of adhesives, also known as hotmelts, is based on various chemical raw materials.
All these different sealing and bonding materials can be volumetrically dispensed, process-sure, with our industrial dispensing systems. Integration of the dispensing head in the path control guarantees that the applied amount has a precise volume, regardless of dispensing speed and the flow properties of the material.
Dispensing of housing seals: Plastic and metal housings from the electronics or automotive area, as well as assemblies from the areas of telecommunication, consumer or household goods, are being increasingly sealed according to the "form in place" (FIP) method. Instead of inserting a conventional gasket (punched gasket, molded seal, endless product), the sealing mass is dispensed directly onto the component in its liquid state. The savings potential, due to the FIP method, is tremendous: No tool costs for component changes, no warehousing costs, no waste.
