Speaking of 3M double-sided tape, I believe that many friends are familiar with it, which is can be seen everywhere, such as machinery,electronics,and other items. And as technology continues to improve, there are more and more types of 3M tapes that can be used in different industries. The AG glass covers that produced by Gelivable team use 3M tapes a lot, as well.
Nowadays, more and more customers require more strictly on 3M tapes bonding to AG glass covers, especially with the development of technology. If a company doesn’t have any update on 3M tape, and it won’t move forward. At the beginning, sticking 3M tape is a must-have need in many product assembly processes.Suppliers will bond the 3M tapes, or customers will do it by themselves.Because of the high requirements of 3M tape bonding, it’s not east to operate,even if the process seems quite simple.Not only should we pay attention to the alignment of the edge of the cover and the 3M tape, but also to no bubbles occur…. etc. If you make a mistake, you have to start it again!
But is it really easy to start over? No, this is another round of problems. In the process of bonding the 3M tape to glass cover, what if the tape is tilted at the end? First you have to tear the tape off, right? Just like a simple “tear” action will ruin the whole glass cover.
In order to better fit with the product and not easy to fall off, the 3M tape we use has a strong adhesion degree and stability. The products used outdoors will not be fall off for ten years no matter they are exposed to the sun, wind and rain. However, the tape we used is so good that it is possible to ruin thinner glass when tearing tape off. So, it’s a long tough story for us to tearing 3M tapes off.
If you want to bond a piece of cover well, you need at least a clean and dust-free environment. Otherwise,the 3M tape is exposed to the outside,and easily to generate some bubbles and dust.
It’s quite annoying question in costs, labor, and yield, if customers bond the 3M tapes by themselves.Therefore, many customers directly buy products that have already been bonded, or find a special person to bond, but in either case, AG glass cover bonding 3M tapes has become a top priority. Because the bonded tapes are directly purchased,and they can be used directly when customers get them. They can be assembled directly by tearing, which is not only very convenient, but also saves time and labor and costs.
Some friends asked me, “Why don’t you use machine fitting?” For now, the cost of a machine specially designed for glass cover is very high. In the case of small quantities, it is necessary to repeatedly adjust the machine and the speed is slow. As a result, the cost is not lower than the labor.
The most critical issue is still the problem of bubbles. If it is a more rigorous customer or industry, it will be quite difficult to meet the requirements of 3M tape.No one is willing to pay for better machines development if the quantities are small. At present, 3M tape is still in the artificial stage. If you wanna bond well and reach cost reduction, the best way is to find those manufacturers who specialize in this business! Following the core value of “creating benefits for customers”, Gelivable have developed 3M adhesive business for AG glass cover, and provide more comprehensive first-rate services for more and more customers.
