Improving Production Efficiency Through Light-Curable Medical Device Adhesives: Real Life Ways to Optimize Your Assembly Process
Posted Date: 12/16/2009
Manufacturers have been utilizing light-curable acrylic adhesives since the early 1980’s to join plastics, glass, and metal substrates in a wide variety of industrial and medical applications. Research laboratories have recently made numerous advancements in light-curable adhesives, expanding their use into previously unheard of applications. These advancements include the ability to cure with the visible light emitted by new LED light systems, the ability to change color from blue to clear as the adhesive cures, plus a wide variety of enhanced physical characteristics including extremely low-durometer gaskets and potting materials. The results of utilizing these new technologies are lower energy use, product efficiency, lower carbon footprint, and overall cost savings.
This webinar features DYMAX Market Segment Manager Kyle Rhodes and Medical Market Specialist Nadine Blaesing. In the webinar they discuss how light-curable adhesives work, how to use new adhesive technologies to make a stronger manufacturing process, and review case studies to show how customers have used light-curable adhesives to their advantage.
