Application technology for components, assemblies and production processes in plastics engineering

Plastics engineering combines diverse requirements for materials, geometries, and surface properties. Precise application of viscous media is crucial in processing and assembly – for functional optimization, joining technology, surface finishing, and process assurance. Particular challenges arise from component surfaces that are difficult to wet, high dimensional tolerances, and material-related shrinkage behavior.

Typical applications in plastics engineering

Glue
Assembly bonding, structural connections, housing or component bonding
Dense
Plastic housings, connectors, sealing grooves
Greasing / Lubrication
Guide elements, hinges, friction contacts
Release agent application
Forming processes in casting or thermoforming
Precoating / Primer
Adhesion promoter for low-energy plastics (e.g. PP, PE)
To seal
Protective coatings against environmental influences
