Case Studies

A machining and component manufacturing application to bond metal parts efficiently with a minimal bond line on a production scale level.

UV adhesive and curing technology produced a strong bond between dissimilar substrates on a product that needed to withstand rough conditions.

Timing of production processes were reduced and the opportunity for better quality control measures were aided by Dymax See-Cure technology.

A UV adhesive and curing acrylic bonding application that required a quick, clear and clean finish to the bondline.

A custom design clock benefits from the use of UV adhesive and curing equipment for a transparent bond line finish.

British artist Carrie Reichardt relies on our structural adhesives to create a strong bond in her creative pieces.

Speaker coil assembly required a low viscosity adhesive with resistance to high temperatures and extended pot life.

A leading UK aerospace company commissioned Astech Projects to build a bespoke Automated Masking System to mask complex areas of aircraft components in order to avoid precious metal coverage during the manufacturing process. Astech worked with Intertronics to incorporate precision volumetric dispensing, Dymax SpeedMask resin, and high intensity UV curing lamps.

Franklin Electric, a leading international manufacturer of water and fuel pumps, needed to optimise their dispensing processes to reduce the waste of UV curing material during the application process. A preeflow eco-PEN450 provided the precise dispensing they were after.

The automobile manufacturing industry places high demands on suppliers with regard to process reliability, quality and efficiency. To meet these challenges, a preeflow customer had to optimise his application of a two-part sealant to make a form-in-place (FIP) gasket through precision dispensing.

An automated sealant dispensing system provided consistent and reliable results in this wearable technology application.

By switching to an automated dispensing system, this electrical manufacturer reduced scrappage and therefore improved quality and yield of their product.

GJD Manufacturing switched to an automated method of dispensing silicone for sealing a plastic lens to aluminium housing. By doing this, they improved the throughput and quality of their white-light and infra-red LED illuminators for the security industry.

A medical application using volumetric dispensing equipment to ensure the high quality and efficient production of a life saving cannula valve.

University Hospital Coventry chose a THINKY mixer to save time and improve the quality of their silicone mixing process to produce prosthetics.

Consistent high quality mixing and improved degassing of powders into resins advanced the process capabilities of a ceramic materials company.

A planetary mixing and degassing machine allows a high specification adhesive to be mixed homogeneously, improving simplicity and quality of production.

Plessey Semiconductors transitioned to a full production phase of their LEDs by using automated mixing and dispensing equipment.
