Mounting stoneware sewers with plastic pipes

  • Installation of a dosing system due to the large material consumption
  • Gap-filling and bonding with generous application of WEICON Flex 310 M® 2 K
  • With this type of drum dosing system, the adhesive is mixed only in the mixing nozzle

Advantage of our solution:

  • Compared to other adhesives: elasticity, tolerance compensation, good sealing effect, high adhesive strength and curing independent of ambient conditions thanks to 2C system
  • Adhesive is only mixed in the mixing nozzle

Bonding of 28,000 brackets for aluminum rhombs at the Pakistan Pavilion at the Expo 2020 in DUBAI

  • Use of several WEICON products at the pavilion
  • Cleaning the aluminium rhombs with WEICON Cleaner Spray S
  • Application of WEICON Primer K 200 for better cross-linking of the surface
  • Bonding the 28,000 aluminium rhombs with WEICON Flex 310 M® Classic
  • In the adhesion test, the material was damaged rather than the adhesive

Advantage of our solution:

  • Adhesive bonding instead of screws
  • Fast and visually appealing solution that meets the highest design requirements
  • Implementation of a total of 28,000 bondings
  • Processing at high outside temperatures of 40 °C possible

Crack repair of a moulding die for bumpers in the automotive industry

  • Cleaning of the rear honeycomb structure in the damaged area with WEICON Cleaner Spray S
  • Use of WEICON Crack Testing Agent to locate cracks
  • Pouring WEICON WR into the honeycombs to fill the cavities of the die
  • Material grouting of 235 kg WEICON WR was carried out over the period of one week (due to exothermic reaction)

Advantage of our solution:

  • Mould now withstands future pressure and further cracking is prevented
  • Economic repair to ensure final production of the batch
  • Cost savings of approx. 100,000 € for a new die
  • Another 8,000 to 10,000 pressings could be made to complete production
