See the possibilities. We’ll work with you to explore bonding with different types of adhesives and dispensing options from powered manual dispensers all the way to fully programmable machinery.
Our experts will work with your team to help you understand dispensing options and how they affect your process, from the adhesives and tapes you use to the various levels of automation available.
Serving customers with three Bonding Process Centers around the world.
Most problems have more than one solution – it’s a matter of choosing the best one for the circumstances. We can help you make the best choice by testing on a variety of different equipment options.*
This variable-ratio, positive rod displacement, meter-mix dispense system has dual independent-drive servo motors to accurately meter materials. The ratio is adjusted in the operator interface, and the system dispenses precision volumetric shots or bead profiles.
Assembly applications:
Rubber application roller to apply coating directly to a part passing through the machine. The coating thickness is varied by the doctor roll pressing against the applicator roll, which uses variable speed and direction capabilities to apply coatings with precise control of adhesive coating weight.
Assembly applications:
One-shot 3D Measuring Macroscope combines the advanced optical design of a digital microscope with high-speed, high-accuracy measurement and 3D technology. This new technology captures 3D data over a wide area with just a click of a button, eliminates measurement variation and provides a variety of measurements such as profiling, volume and roughness.
Assembly applications:
PURBlue 4 adhesive melters efficiently process PUR, from two-, three- or four-kilogram foil-encased slugs or form-liner slugs with foil bottoms. PURBlue melters provide the ability to easily use small volumes of PUR for increased productivity and reduced adhesive waste.
Assembly applications:
Automatically apply a wide variety of 3M™ VHB™ Tapes to flat surfaces and square tubes. Tape strips can be applied continuously or in strips with gaps, as required. The 3M VHB Tape is applied with pressure immediately thereafter. The tape is cut flush or at a pre-set distance from either end.
Assembly applications:
Apply a wide variety of 3M™ VHB™ Tapes or other pressure sensitive tapes to flat surfaces. Tape can be applied continuously or in a pattern.

(SPEECH) [UPBEAT MUSIC] (DESCRIPTION) Logo, 3M Bonding Process Center. Title, Feed through Spray System. Reciprocating spray head for uniform adhesive coverage. Capable of spraying water based or solvent based adhesives. Can spray samples up to 24 inches in width. Infrared oven to aid in flashing off water or solvent. The doors to the oven are closed. A wide piece of foam is placed on a conveyor belt the same width. It begins to slowly move forward. A gauge is labeled Gun Atomizing. A gold switch is flipped up indicating On. Below, a knob is turned from off, past gun, to man. A pink adhesive sprays from a nozzle as it moves back and forth across the width of the foam, which continues to travel forward toward the oven. Adhesives, Solvent and Water-Based. Infrared Oven, Maximum temperature 500 degrees Fahrenheit. The foam, now covered in the pink mist, slides slowly through the oven.

Spray booth systems are often used in high-output applications and can be customized to accommodate most part shapes and sizes. These systems can include x-y tables, robots, conveyor systems, and automated spray heads to spray adhesive for even coverage or a specified pattern across a part. With a spray booth system there is minimal operator involvement and over-spray is reduced.

"The customer feedback about the 3M Bonding Process Center in Neuss is absolutely positive! Our end users find it very helpful to learn about potential dispensing solutions and test the equipment with their substrates."
In a world where social distancing and staying home are important to everyone’s health and safety, we can also work with you remotely. Rather than scheduling an in-person visit you can arrange to send us your parts and we’ll discuss what you’d like us to test and show you, which we can then do remotely.
You have your experts and we have ours. Let’s put them together to find a complete solution for your application.
