Fast-Track Production with UV Foam-in-Place Robotic Dispensing
Overview
Join us for a free webinar! This presentation will showcase how automated robotic dispensing and rapid UV LED curing enable ~1-second cure times for high-speed Foam in Place Gasket (FIPG) applications, delivering a scalable, energy-efficient process with consistent, high-quality gasket performance. The combination of plasma pretreatment, automated robotic dispensing of foam UV, and UV LED curing systems sets a new benchmark for productivity, sustainability, and repeatable quality in industrial sealing.
Technology contributions include: Sunstar Engineering (Penguin Foam UV material for high-precision sealing), Excelitas® (LED curing systems), Enercon® (plasma pretreatment), INPRO Technologies (automation integration)
