Permabond says TA4208 Black is still a breakthrough product, more than a year after its launch. It offers unique features that make it not only a highly versatile adhesive, but also incredibly practical in terms of everyday use.

Permabond was recently approached by a cladding company looking for a fire-retardant adhesive. There are quite a lot of these around, but this company had particular requirements that meant a more tailored solution was needed.

FANUC has launched what it says is the world's first ever explosion-proof, ATEX-rated collaborative robot for processes such as adhesive dispensing, where it can reduce waste, increase productivity and boost safety.

Bringing screws into the correct position and separating them is a challenge faced by many partially and fully automated productions. Vibratory conveyors are one solution here, but they are often associated with high noise levels and also cause abrasion on the conveyed screws due to the vibrations. ARNOLD UMFORMTECHNIK offers a good alternative with its segment conveyors.
