03 / CURING

UV Curing.
Matched to your
process.

For reliable and repeatable curing of UV-curable adhesives, potting compounds, and coatings, dropflow supplies high-output UV-LED systems (365–450 nm): from compact handheld units (dropflow Cure 1G / 2G / Industrial) and multi-channel UV-LED spot curing systems (up to 18,000 mW/cm²) to light-shielded UV-LED curing chambers (UV-Cubes) and flood arrays. We match wavelength, irradiance, optics, and PLC integration accurately to your adhesive and cycle time.

  • Mobile & USB-controllable UV-LED light sources (dropflow Cure 1G / 2G / Industrial)
  • 4- to 12-channel UV-LED spot curing systems (Awellcure A2400-TP4 Touch, up to 18 W/cm²)
  • Shielded UV-LED curing chambers (UV-Cubes O100100 / O250250) & flood lamps

04 / DOCUMENT BONDING PROCESSES

BAT Adhesive App.
Documentation
at the workstation.

The platform by B.A.T. (Better Adhesive Tracking, Made in Germany) replaces error-prone paper logs and Excel sheets with tamper-proof digital quality assurance compliant with DIN 2304 (S1–S4), DIN 6701, EN 9100, and FDA 21 CFR Part 11 / MDR. Three specialized applications access the same LoRaWAN sensor network: KlebeDoku (PWA for operators & audits at the bonding station), BAT Cloud (browser dashboard with interactive floor plan for QA & plant management), and the mobile LoRaWAN Dashboard (smartphone app for commissioning & on-call teams).

The compact LoRaWAN sensors of the LX-100 series (7 variants for temperature ±0.4 K, relative humidity ±2 % rH, ambient light, PIR, and reed contacts, ~5 years battery life, supplemented by VOC/CO₂ sensors) and the 8-channel gateways (GW-8 / GW-8 Pro IP67 with 30-day local offline buffer and LTE failover) operate completely independently of your corporate IT network.

  • KlebeDoku operator app (RFID/PIN login, 1D/QR/OCR material scan with shelf-life interlock & 10-year audit trail)
  • BAT Cloud & LoRaWAN Dashboard (live charts, drag-and-drop floor plan, 3-stage escalation alerts & REST API)
  • LoRaWAN sensors LX-100 to LX-160, gateways GW-8 / GW-8 Pro & 5G/NB-IoT cold-chain adhesive transport tracking
Discuss digital bonding documentation

STRUCTURED PROCESS CONTROL

From QR scan to
signed audit report.

End-to-end capture of shift login, material batch (shelf-life check), and live environmental telemetry directly at the bonding cell.

  1. Shift Start & Material Scan (QR / Barcode / OCR)

    Login via RFID/PIN; scan adhesive, primer, and cleaner – with automatic interlock if the expiration date has passed.

  2. Live Environmental Data from BAT Cloud

    Temperature, humidity, light, VOC, and CO₂ readings from the LX-100 sensor flow automatically into the active batch protocol.

  3. Cryptographically Chained PDF Audit Report

    Complete with photo, note, or voice memo, sign digitally, and archive tamper-proof for 10 years.

BEFORE YOUR INQUIRY

Ask concretely.
Clarify technically.

What matters for initial technical qualification.

How do we find the right solution?

Start with your application. Substrates, joint geometry, target cycle time, and planned integration into your production line set the direction. For UV curing we clarify wavelength, irradiation area, and PLC control; for dispensing and bonding we align medium, viscosity, shot volume, and degree of automation.

Which manufacturers and product lines does dropflow cover?

In dispensing and bonding technology we partner with Musashi Engineering (high-precision dispensing controllers, jet and volumetric valves, desktop robots), ThreeBond (industrial adhesives, liquid gaskets, and structural adhesives), and Walther Systemtechnik (material supply, pressure tanks, pumps, and dispensing valves). This portfolio is complemented by CNC manufacturing and C-parts, UV-LED curing systems, and the BAT Adhesive App.

How does the BAT Adhesive App support documentation?

The BAT Adhesive App combines QR-code-guided work instructions at the workstation with batch tracking, shelf-life validation, and deviation logging including photo documentation. Via Track’n Trace, temperature, humidity, and ambient light are continuously monitored via LoRaWAN sensors. We are happy to demonstrate the solution live or set up a pilot kit.

What should we prepare for a technical inquiry?

A brief description of your application is enough to get started. Helpful details include the current or desired adhesive/material, component geometry, dispensing or curing task, and planned production volume. For manufacturing and C-parts, material specs, tolerances, and drawings shared after initial contact enable precise quotation.

Does dropflow support dispensing and bonding projects on-site in the St. Gallen Rhine Valley and across Switzerland?

Yes. From our headquarters in Widnau (St. Gallen Rhine Valley), we personally support industrial companies in the Rhine Valley, Eastern Switzerland, Liechtenstein, all of Switzerland (Zurich, Central, Northwestern, and Western Switzerland), and neighboring Vorarlberg/Southern Germany with process analysis, sampling, dispensing trials, and system integration.

Which industries does dropflow engineer dispensing, bonding, and UV systems for?

Our systems are used wherever adhesives, sealants, potting compounds, thermal interface materials, or lubricants must be applied and cured repeatably – especially in Swiss medical technology, electronics and semiconductor manufacturing, sensors, photonics/optics, precision mechanics and watchmaking, as well as general mechanical and automotive engineering.
