Master Bond EP6STC-80 is a one component, non-frozen, silver filled epoxy engineered for bonding, sealing, and coating applications requiring exceptional thermal and electrical conductivity. This system offers an unlimited working life at room temperature and achieves a full cure at a moderate temperature of 80degC.

Zygology reports that PEM's RT free-running locking threads, previously available only on PEM S nuts, can now be added to PEM's internally threaded standoffs.

While primers can create a stronger, longer-lasting bond, they are an additional process step and carry H&S considerations. Here Kevin Brownsill, Head of Technical: Learning and Development at adhesives specialist Intertronics, discusses the options available to manufacturers and design engineers.

The AE-V0 line from Elesa has been expanded with new solutions made from UL-94 V0 certified self-extinguishing technopolymer, tested to ensure the highest safety standards for machines and equipment operating in environments where superior flame resistance is required, such as public spaces, complex industrial plants, and highly automated sectors.

SPIROL announces the launch of its newest machined Aluminium Threaded Inserts, designed for heat or ultrasonic installation into straight plastic holes.

Henkel announces the expansion of its line of sustainable adhesive sealants for use with interior and exterior heavy equipment and vehicle applications. Teroson MS 9381 HPT complies with strict regulatory requirements, eliminating tin, solvents, isocyanates, silicones, and PVC from its formulation while simplifying processing and improving performance compared to older-generation materials.

Emerson has launched the new Branson Polaris Ultrasonic Welding Platform, a highly configurable multi-use welding platform enabling advanced manufacturing engineers to design efficient joining solutions with software and hardware.

Higher energy efficiency, lower operating costs and an important contribution to a climate-neutral building stock - external thermal insulation composite systems (ETICS) are now standard in new construction and are increasingly used in renovation projects. With TherMax II, fischer offers the latest generation of its proven stand-off installation system to securely fasten attachments to ETICS with virtually no heat loss.

Yamaha Robotics has expanded the LCMR200 linear transfer system with new Free Modules for a simplified design that reduces system cost without losing precision.

Electromechanical joining is becoming much more effortless. For the first time, the new Integrated Joining System (IJSys) with force-displacement measurement by Kistler combines all the components of a servo press in a single housing.
