Light-curable adhesives rapidly bond glass, metal, and plastic by curing upon exposure to energy of the proper wavelength. Many factors can affect the controlled dispensing and processing of these materials. Dymax Corporation’s new white paper “Dispensing Light-Curable Materials: Process Controls & Troubleshooting” discusses substrate compatibility, temperature and viscosity, and how to set up a dispense system. It also covers syringe dispensing challenges, air bubbles and cavitation in syringes, using cartridges and pressure pots, and preventive maintenance.

In manufacturing, process controls are used to ensure that products are made to the highest standard possible. When effective procedures are laid out for each step in the manufacturing process, it’s much easier to reduce the risk of damage, failure, and loss.  Register to download the paper and learn how to properly set up and maintain your dispensing system.

Dymax Corporation develops innovative oligomer, adhesive, coating, dispensing, and light-curing systems for applications in a wide range of markets. Major markets include aerospace, appliance, automotive, electronics, industrial, medical device, and metal finishing.
