Automated Bonding and Dispensing

Robotic bonding is a type of automated assembly where two or more parts are joined by applying adhesive and pressure between the parts.

The bonding dispensing process can be automated with solutions such as:

- A special-purpose machine
- A robot with an adhesive dispenser
- A fixed adhesive dispenser and a robot that moves the item needing bonding (integrated dispensing)

For dispensing equipment and adhesives, we often collaborate with G.A. Lindberg, who supplies Swedish industry with adhesives and lubricants.

Dispensing equipment is crucial in the manufacturing industry for handling, dispensing, mixing, pumping, pre-treating, and curing various materials such as adhesives, grease, casting compounds, and more. lim, fett, gjutmassor, och mer.

  1. Types of Dispensing Systems
    • Syringe and Plunger: The simplest form of dispensing system where the desired amount of material is manually extruded.
    • Air Pulse Dispenser: Instead of manual handling, an air pulse dispenser dispenses the exact amount of material.
    • Time and Pressure Adjustment: Dispensers come in various versions depending on the material's viscosity and volume precision.
    • Applications: Dispensers can dispense everything from thin solvents to paste-like solder pastes or adhesives without spillage.
  2. Advantages of Dispensers
    • Sophisticated Dispensing: Dispensers provide sophisticated and precise dispensing.
    • Mess-Free Handling: Dispensers minimize spillage and mess.
    • User-Friendly: Most dispensers are handheld, but they can also be integrated into small robots for automated dispensing.

In summary, dispensing equipment is a vital part of the manufacturing process, and dispenser technology enables precise and efficient handling of various materials.

Considerations for Bonding

Here are some important points to consider when applying adhesive:

  1. Surface Preparation
    • Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from contaminants. Dirt, oil, or dust can negatively affect the adhesive bond.
  2. Choice of Adhesive Type
    • Choose the right type of adhesive for your application. Consult an expert like GA Lindberg.
    • Consider the material you are bonding and the requirements for strength, flexibility, and temperature resistance.
  3. Amount and Even Distribution
    • Apply the correct amount of adhesive. Too much adhesive can create uneven surfaces and excess waste.
    • Distribute the adhesive evenly over the entire surface for the best results.
  4. Pressure and Curing Time
    • Apply pressure to the bonded surfaces to ensure good adhesion.
    • Follow the adhesive manufacturer's recommended curing time. Removing the pressure too early can affect the adhesive's performance.
  5. Environment and Temperature
    • Bonding should be done in a clean, temperature-controlled environment. Extreme temperatures can affect the adhesive's properties.
    • Some adhesives perform better at room temperature, while others may require specific temperatures for optimal performance.
  6. Safety
    • Use protective gloves and work in a well-ventilated area when handling adhesive.
    • Avoid contact with eyes and skin. If accidental contact occurs, rinse immediately with water.

In summary, precision, the correct choice of adhesive type, and proper application are crucial to achieving strong and durable adhesive bonds.
