Processing & Dosing Technology.
The best material only works when it is correctly dosed, mixed, and cured. Cartridge, static mixer, dispensing device, and curing process form a coordinated system for reproducible results.
overview
Basics
Two-component adhesives and potting compounds only cure completely if they are dispensed in the correct ratio, mixed homogeneously, and properly cured. The dual cartridge keeps the components separate, while the static mixer blends them without moving parts, solely through dispensing pressure. Manual and pneumatic dispensing tools apply the material, and syringes are available for small quantities. Light-curing adhesives also require the correct dose of light, often from a curing chamber. Cartridge, mixer, dispensing tool, and mixing ratio must be compatible; the technical data sheet is binding.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the mixing ratio so important?
In 2K systems, both components react in a fixed ratio. If this ratio is incorrect, part of the system remains uncrosslinked and the curing process is incomplete. The specifications in the datasheet are authoritative.
Helix or quad static mixer?
Helix mixers are proven all-rounders, while quad mixers often achieve thorough mixing over a shorter length, thus reducing waste. The key factors are the ratio, viscosity, and mixing quality; see the data sheet.
Manual or compressed air dosing?
Handheld devices are suitable for individual pieces and small batches, while pneumatic devices are ideal for consistent dispensing at higher frequencies. Syringe dosing is recommended for small, precisely reproducible quantities.
