BONDING Joining Securely Through the Use of Adhesives. SEALING Closing or Securing a Part or Assembly with a Fluid-tight, Air-tight Adhesive. Virtually every product assembled requires bonding or sealing at some stage of the process. Liquid Control offers manual and automated technologies for single-component and two-component bonding and sealing for a broad array of products, markets and end-uses. Single-Component Sealing and Bonding Single-component adhesives and sealants such as silicone sealants, UV curable acrylates, urethanes and epoxies are used widely in the assembly of component parts from as small as surface mount electrical components to appliances and automobiles. Single-component materials are chosen primarily for their ease of use but they have a long curing process unless energy is used. The keys to the successful application of these materials are: understanding the chemistry, transferring the materials out of the shipping containers, creating repeatable flow rates or shot size, actuation and design of the dispense valve and finally equipping the system for automation or manual processes. Liquid Control, with its Dispensit product line offers a full complement of technologies to address all the key success factors of dispensing and keep the single-component process in complete control.

Liquid Control and its Decker Division provide manually operated adhesive dispensing machines with hand held guns, as well as fully automated dispensing machines that are integrated with production lines or robots. The key success factors for applying reactive two-component adhesives or sealants are: knowing the chemistry, accurately metering the individual components and finally mixing the two components as they are applied to a part. Our machines range in size from the Posidot for minute quantities of adhesive up to very large-scale meter-mix machines custom-built for robotic processes.
