THE APPLICATION

A Complete Process for a Safety-Critical Component

This project covers two-component adhesive dispensing and pressing for automotive airbag fabric. With material viscosity of 550,000–800,000 mPa·s and long dispensing paths across a flexible substrate, stable feeding, accurate metering, and coordinated motion are essential.

 

INTEGRATED SOLUTION

High Viscosity, Long Paths, One Cycle

DETECH integrated material feeding, servo-driven metering, static mixing, six-axis robotic dispensing, alternating worktables, pressing, and finished-part transfer into one production system.

One control architecture coordinates the material system, robot, transfer unit, and press. Process parameters and operating records can be connected to the production-line PLC for traceability and maintenance support.

PROCESS & CORE PRODUCTS

FROM MATERIAL FEEDING TO CONTROLLED DISPENSING

Core equipment selected around adhesive viscosity, mix ratio, dispensing behavior, and line integration.

 


MATERIAL FEEDING

DC55 Piston Platen Pump

High-viscosity material feeding module

High-viscosity material feeding module

The DC55 provides continuous feeding of high-viscosity A/B materials. A low-level alarm, drum securing mechanism, and pump circulation monitoring support stable material supply during production.

Wear-resistant seals are designed for prolonged exposure to high-viscosity media, helping reduce production interruptions during drum changes and maintenance.


 

MIXING & DISPENSING

Distem PDT 3 Shut-Off Valve

Two-component pneumatic shut-off valve

Two-component pneumatic shut-off valve

The PDT 3 controls two-component dispensing at a 1:1 volumetric ratio. A static mixer blends the A and B components inline, while the snuff-back function helps reduce dripping and stringing at shut-off.

Its adjustable mounting angle simplifies integration with robots and different workstation layouts.

PROJECT VALUE

Capacity, Process Stability, and Traceability in One Line

The system connects dispensing and pressing through one control architecture. Pressure, temperature, flow rate, and dispensing parameters can be uploaded to the production-line PLC, while alarm history, operating logs, flow and pressure curves, and service-life monitoring support fault tracing, maintenance planning, and future process optimization.


BROADER CAPABILITY

From Airbags to More Fluid Applications

The same engineering approach can be adapted to automotive batteries, lighting, glass, interior and exterior components, home appliances, and new-energy manufacturing. Feeding, metering, mixing, motion, tooling, inspection interfaces, and line cycle requirements are configured around each material and product.
