Typical ways of applying adhesive in industrial production

Component assembly and fixing

Dot or bead dosing of hot melt adhesive to fix plastic, metal or combined parts on assembly lines – a precise application with a repeatable result part after part.

Lamination and mounting of materials

Coating application of adhesive on a calender or flat-bed line to bond films, fabrics, foams or paper. An even layer across the full width of the material with no air pockets.

Coating application

Continuous application of a thin, even layer of adhesive – for applications in the electrical industry, technical textiles or anywhere the tolerance of the application thickness is critical.

Bead and dot dosing

Precise application of adhesive along a defined path or point – for sealing assemblies, gluing structural parts or applications where the position and repeatability of the bond are critical.

Why companies look for a bespoke solution

  • The standard offering from suppliers does not match the specifics of your application – a different material, a non-standard part shape or an unusual line speed calls for a different approach than a typical off-the-shelf solution.
  • Your current way of applying adhesive (manual, roller-based or an old applicator) does not deliver a repeatable result – overflow, an uneven layer or too slow a cycle complicate production.
  • You are not sure which technology is right for your application – whether hot melt or cold glue, what type of applicator, and whether the application can be automated at all.

How Kaletech solves it

Our entry point is always an application analysis – we assess what and where you glue, which materials and speeds are involved and what the requirements are for the strength and durability of the bond. Only then do we design the technology. Robatech systems cover hot melt gluing as well as cold gluing and a range of application methods from dot dosing through bead application to coating – so the solution can be adapted to your specific situation, not the other way round.

The key step is a test on your materials in the Kaletech testing centre. We assess how the adhesive behaves on your material, what process parameters are needed and how precise an application the system actually achieves. The test is without obligation and gives you a concrete answer – with no guesswork.

How an industrial application system works

Robatech technology for industrial and structural gluing includes hot melt gluing as well as cold gluing — two separate variants used according to the material and the type of application. An industrial system consists of three main parts: a melter (melts the adhesive to its operating viscosity), heated hoses (deliver the adhesive at a constant temperature and pressure) and application heads (apply the adhesive by the required method — dot, bead, spray or coating). The system is synchronised with the production line manually or via a PLC with industrial communication protocols. We always assess the specific combination individually — according to your material, speed and application method.

  1. Consultation and application assessment

    Tell us what and where you glue – the material, the part shape, the line speed and the requirements for the bond. On that basis we recommend the type of technology and adhesive. The consultation is without obligation.

  2. Test on your materials

    In the Kaletech testing centre we carry out a test with the chosen technology on your actual materials. The result is a concrete assessment – what process parameters are needed and what the application really looks like.

  3. System configuration and installation

    We design the configuration – a melter, a hose and an application head precisely for your line. We install the system, integrate it into production and train the operators directly on site.

  4. Service and ongoing support

    We provide spare parts, preventive service and an SOS line. If a fault occurs or you need advice on the settings, we are available.

„The aim was to replace the manual gluing of ironing boards with a faster and more economical solution – and that succeeded. Robatech supplied complete gluing equipment thanks to which we saved a quarter of the costs on both adhesive and production staff. I believe the cooperation will continue on further Leifheit projects."

Frequently asked questions

The easiest way is to describe to us what and where you glue – the materials, the part shape, the speed and the requirements for the bond. After a short consultation we can usually say whether the application is technically feasible and which technology comes into consideration. The consultation is without obligation.

Have a specific or non-standard application? We will design a solution.

Describe your application to us – we will assess the materials, the technology and the integration into your production. A test on your materials in the testing centre is part of the analysis. With no obligation.
