New Generation Laminating Technology

As consumers increasingly demand both comfort and style, especially seamless intimates have gradually become a popular choice of modern women nowadays. To grasp and adapt to this demand quickly, Henkel offers an innovative technology to create a comfortable and seamless experience called non-sewing. With the advantage of high production efficiency, multiple base material options and flexible design, non-sewing has become a leading trend in the textile industry.

Henkel as a leader in the sustainable development of adhesive solutions, we are driving the textiles industry forward to sustainability based on 4 main pillars: contributor of sustainability, pioneer of value chain partnership, navigator of efficient production and guarantee of excellent performance.

“As a technology leader in the adhesive industry, Henkel provides a diverse portfolio of non-sewing solutions that are optimized to meet the demands of consumers, while exceeding their expectations for efficiency...

Sustainability is becoming a megatrend and is a major development goal for many packaging manufacturers and companies around the world.

This case study demonstrates how Henkel and MauserCABS used structural adhesives to replace welding in the redesign of a lighter multipurpose vehicle cabin while also reducing CO2 emissions.

Application Challenges and Objectives

Data center switches, routers, and servers are incorporating larger, more powerful CPUs/GPUs to manage increasing data processing and bandwidth demands.

The new semiconductor packages, many containing multiple large dies, are seeing higher power concentrations, resulting in elevated operational temperatures.

At the same time, new generations of switch, router, and server designs are becoming more compact, which limits the thermal material types that are effective with very thin bond lines.

Customer Challenge

• Modern-day motor drives are integrating more complex power devices to manage growing energy efficiency requirements.  The customer’s next-generation motor controller required a thermal interface material (TIM) to manage new performance challenges and higher power densities. 
• As the IC power module is subjected to motor vibration, reliability and stability of the thermal interface material – with no material migration -- is critical to enable operational integrity.
• Any thermal material selected had to meet challenging metrics: Electrical isolation with high dielectric strength (>5000 Volts) and low thermal resistance are necessary to meet in-application conditions.

Hot melt tank pressure impacts the rate of adhesive flow and amount of product being dispensed. Operators must manage the pressure setting, integrate set speed in the application and avoid adhesive build-up and overspray. Tank pressure is critical to efficiency on the production line.

Preventing char buildup on packaging production lines allows the equipment to run more efficiently. Implementing some simple processes can reduce char buildup and allow hot melt packging adhesive to work more effectively.

Effective Management Maintains Package Integrity and Reduces Waste

Consumer demand for convenience and single-use products continues to grow. At the same time, they want to minimize waste and are choosing more socially responsible products. 

EPIX® padded mailers and other packaging materials are evolving to reduce waste.

Double-walled paper cups made possible with EPIX® provide greater temperature resistance.
