One of the most recent products added to the GoKimco website is the Loctite EQ CL32 LED Spot 405nm. With new light intensities of up to 3 w/cm2, this system is three times greater than its predecessor and revolutionizes portable LED curing methods for all industries that need to achieve immediate operating strength on a variety of materials.
This lightweight LED light source is small enough to be used in crowded and hard-to-reach areas while minimizing operator fatigue, yet powerful enough to take care of all the curing needs your industry might require. Depending on your project and preferences, you can either power the system through a wall outlet if you wish to use it as a mount or you can take advantage of its 3-hour battery life if you wish to use it as a handheld unit.
Besides being small and powerful, the Loctite EQ CL32 also boasts a number of other benefits. For starters, its instant on/off makes the system easy and quick to use. Its long focus length allows the user to direct precisely into small joints or crowded areas with fast curing speeds. It also consumes little power and releases no IR emissions, which reduces the chance for thermal damage and warp.
How does this light work? Click here for a visual explanation on how to use the LED spot system, but for now, we’ll go over the basics. For common applications, just apply a light cure instant adhesive to the parts that you wish to be mated, potted or sealed. GoKimco also offers a number of light cure adhesives, all of which are formulated for rapid light cure.
You can still adjust parts once the adhesive is applied without breaking the initial bond since the adhesive will not become activated until the light source is used. This allows you to ensure that your parts are in the desired place before using the using the Loctite EQ CL32 to adhere them together. Then use the instant on button and either the 365nm or 405nm LED heads to complete the curing process.
It’s that simple! The Loctite EQ CL32 is perfect for prototyping, scale up, or full production environments so you won’t want to miss out on this newly featured product.
]]>You do have to pay attention to the warnings...use the recommended filter (5 micron Filter –Regulator –Loctite 985397) for your inlet air supply and don't be turning your barrels upside down & sideways or leaving the vacuum on because if the adhesive leaks back into the system it is not good. That same vacuum component is sweet, though; it keeps the stuff from dripping and stringing all over your project.
Why would you want a Digital Syringe Dispenser, you ask? Control, my friend. This machine gives you control when you put the goop on the doohicky. You know how easy it is to squeeze too hard and get too much. The Loctite 883976 lets you do the foot pedal in Manual Mode but it also has Incremental Mode where the machine puts on the brakes as you previously set it or the Automatic Mode where you have programmed it to do exactly the same thing every time you step on the pedal. You can get dots all the same size, beads in even widths, or just fill syringes for a quick squirt when you want one.
If you use Loctite a lot--and most of us do--this is a machine that belongs in your dream shop.
]]>The Loctite 883976 Digital Syringe Dispenser is an affordable adhesive dispenser for companies that need to augment their repair equipment while staying within a budget. Priced significantly lower than the brand’s Digital Precision Syringe Dispenser (model no. 97006), the Digital Syringe Dispenser (883976) offers precision dispensing at an affordable price. Although this is a much less expensive piece of equipment, it features the same precision and reliability that all Loctite dispensers have.
In the electronic repair industry, precision is a two-fold term. First, the amount of liquid dispensed must be precise. Few industries have less room to perform physical repairs than the electronics repair industry, where every nanometer counts. Second, the dispenser’s timing must also be accurate. In some cases, a repair might be manually done, in which case this latter aspect of precision is less important. Many manufacturers, though, use computerized assembly lines for at least a portion of these repairs. The equipment used in these assembly lines must be precisely coordinated.
Loctite’s Digital Syringe Dispenser is precise in both of these aspects. While dispensing adhesives, it creates a vacuum. This vacuum sucks any extra adhesive back into the dispenser, so only the exact amount is distributed. As for timing, the dispenser has three modes: manual, incremental and timed. When adjusting the incremental and timed modes, repair personnel can adjust the timing to the nearest 0.001 second.
Within the computer repair industry, Loctite is a recognized and trusted brand. Because their products provide reliable performance for lengthy periods of time, many computer repair facilities use their dispensers. At its affordable price, the Loctite 883976 Semi-Automatic Dispensing System provides a practical, accurate and dependable solution for companies that need equipment for assembly electrical components, repairing circuit boards and wire tacking.
