Adhesives & glue

Applications

IR drying and UV polymerisation of adhesives

Adhesives or glues have become very popular in the assembly and design of all kinds of products and production machines since they are increasingly durable, create a very strong force, can be removed when heated and help to assemble products very fast avoiding screws.

There are many different adhesives nowadays used, materials range from new UV and solvent acrylats, to natural or synthetic rubber.

The glue is brought on the materials by drops, spraying or blade distribution. Most popular applications are for adhesive tapes, lamintated foils and papers, electronics on high volumes production machines producing in a speed of 5-100 m/min.

Application areas are foils, tapes, band-aids, laminated papers, plastics, etc.

UV and IR is used to polymerize the UV acrylat or preheat with IR rubbers and eliminate the water solvents.

for lamination

DR. FISCHER solutions for adhesive tapes

Lab polymerisation to simulate the Dr Fischer UV channel and to produce new tape samples for customers.

Complete UV channel with very sensitive UV modules in the beginning to high power modules at the end of the channel.

Retrofit solution to replace the exisiting UV fluo tubes with an affordable and easy to retrofit led system.

Ejection and cooling

DR. FISCHER solutions range from IR boosters including IR module, power supply and control to UV low and medium ressure lamps or complete dryers to 15-25 m long UV Led channels with up to 200 lamps or modules with power supply and control via Profinet. Typical irridiance levels in the UV vary from 0,1-100-9000 mW/cm2.
