New Dispensing System Specially Designed for Applying Light Cure Acrylics to Tubing
Rocky Hill, Conn. - February 24, 2005.... Henkel Corporation has introduced its new Loctite® Light Cure Adhesive Dispensing System for Tubing, equipment that rapidly and consistently applies a uniform coating of light cure acrylic adhesives to the outer diameter of tubing.
The new system is designed for simple, one-handed operation. By inserting the end of the tubing into the opening on the dispenser, a film of adhesive is applied to the tubing. The application rate can be easily adjusted to optimize the amount of adhesive dispensed. The equipment accommodates adhesives with viscosities as high as 1500 cP, and parts from 2.0 to 6.0 mm in outer diameter. Maximum dispensing length is 8 mm.
The design of the dispense system prevents light exposure during the dispense process. Easily interchangeable stainless steel bushings are available in 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm and 6mm diameters to accommodate various tubing sizes.
The unit's electric motor continuously recirculates adhesive through the dispensing bushing, eliminating the need for compressed air and ensuring adhesive availability. A separate transformer supplies power to the unit, minimizing its footprint and weight. A sight glass allows the operator to easily determine adhesive fill level.
