New adhesive from Intertronics to suit LED lamp system for ultra-fast medical device assembly
New from Intertronics is the DYMAX 1020-M Ultra Light-Weld®, an ultra-fast, tack-free, LED-curable adhesive. Explained Intertronics M.D. Peter Swanson: “It’s designed for rapid bonding of a wide variety of plastics typically used in the manufacture of medical devices such as reservoirs, tube sets, port fittings, drug delivery systems and heat-sensitive applications. Visible/UV light-curable 1020-M is formulated for less-than-two-second, on-demand cure with the DYMAX BlueWave® LED Prime UVA spot-curing system.” This new high-intensity lamp features many advantages over conventional spot-curing systems including no consumable bulbs to change, no warm-up, cool cures, and constant intensity for thousands of hours. The unit produces the highest power of any LED spot-curing lamp on the market today, with an out of >15 W/cm2.
