If you need materials for potting, bonding, thermal management or environmental  protection, the adhesive experts from Techsil will be on hand to answer your questions. 

UK based Techsil are suppliers of industrial adhesives, sealants and tapes. At Southern Manufacturing 2015 they will be showcasing their UV curing adhesives and UV light systems from Panacol and Hönle and launching a new lightweight hand held UVA LED lamp with a long service life of over 20,000 hours. This portable lamp has an in-built on/off switch which means it is ready to use in an instant with no waiting time to warm up or cool down. Visitors to stand J26 can pick up a voucher to save £100 when ordering this lamp online.

After the level of interest last year, they will again be giving live demonstrations of OverTEC  our low cost, low pressure injection overmoulding technology for encapsulation of delicate components and launching our fully pneumatic reservoir/chamber glue gun TEC 4710B which is digitally temperature and pressure controlledperfect for production lines and high volume output.

Also new for 2015 Techsil have just published a brochure  which catalogues thei products. This helpful reference guide makes it easier to compare and select the right materials for your application. 

Other ranges on show include silicone adhesives and sealants from Momentive, ITW Stokvis Industrial Tapes, Hot Melt adhesives and our Epoxies and Polyurethanes. Over the 3 day event – you will get the chance to meet various key members of the team – Chris Dilley, a sales director with 19 years adhesives experience; Steve Morrow,  business development manager and tape and hotmelt glue specialist. Joining them will be representatives from Panacol – working together to answer your questions and offering new solutions or interesting approaches to existing problems you may have.

The show sees the UK launch of the UVAHAND LED which is a high-intensity hand-held UV lamp for curing UV reactive adhesives and sealants. It is easy to transport, ergonomically designed and perfect for mobile working. The arrangement of the LEDs guarantee a homogeneous intensity distribution whilst the intensive irradiation ensures reliable production results within a matter of seconds. A very lightweight solution, made from high strength materials making this lamp very durable. As the UVAHAND utilises LED bulbs, it has the benefit of a long service life. This is typically longer than 20,000 hours.

There is no requirement for a warm-up or cool-down period – it comes with a handy in-built on/off switch. The UVAHAND LED is for applications involving the bonding of glass, plastics and metals. It also lends itself very well to the electronics industry; curing UV reactive compounds on electrical and electronic components. This portable lamp is also suitable for the production and repair of plastic parts using UV curing polyester resins.

Techsil are excited to demonstrate OverTEC 5FR, our popular low pressure moulding system which seals and protects electrical and electronic components in a cost effective way through increased production and low cost tooling. Typically OverTEC can be used to overmould PCBs, make electric cable glands, provide strain relief on cables, protect sensors and to make electronic connectors for IP protection.
