Bonding – the joint together of two substrates with an adhesive.

Tacking – the mounting of electrical leads or components to a printed circuit board.

Coating – the application of a thin layer of material to a substrate.

Potting – the surface application of a material over or around a component.

Masking – the application of a temporary material designed to protect a component from processing. Masks can be peelabel, buranable or water-soluble.

Encapsulation – the application of a material to completely coat or surround the substrate.

At Dymax we combine our product offering with our expert knowledge of light-cure technology.
Where others only supply products, we are committed to developing a true collaborative
partnership, bringing our total process knowledge to our customer’s specific application
challenges.

Because we understand the process as a whole, we can offer our customer a solution where chemistry and equipment work seamlessly together with maximum efficiency. Our application engineering team works side-by-side with our customers, providing assistance with product and process design, equipment selection and integration, testing, evaluation, and pre-production trials throughout the life of the assembly process. Our laboratory is fully equipped to deliver mechanical or electrical testing, as well as specialty testing such as flowers of sulfur, salt spray, or thermal shock to ASTM standards. The lab also has a variety of curing equipment and manual and automated dispensing systems for evaluation.

Our assembly solutions and expertise give manufacturers the knowledge and tools to increase productivity, lower costs, increase safety, and achieve a more efficient manufacturing process. That’s a competitive advantage they can’t get anywhere else.

Application Areas

Light-Curable Materials, Curing Equipment, and Dispensing Systems for OEMs

For aerospace, automotive, electronics, and medical device manufacturers utilizing light-cure technology in their process, Dymax has products that suit many different application areas. We assist manufacturers in the design of complete system solutions comprised of chemistry, curing equipment, and dispense systems and provide the technical expertise to put them all together.

Some of the benefits of using light-cure technology in manufacturing include:

• Rapid cure for reduced work in process and increased throughput
• Materials are 100% solids and cure completely so there is no hazardous waste
• One-component materials lower capital costs and reduce pot-life issues

Companies use Dymax light-curable materials and equipment in a vast range of markets and manufacturing environments.
