Active Alignment Adhesives

What is active alignment? Active alignment refers to the process of fine-tuning or precisely aligning components, typically optical or mechanical systems, while the system is actively operating. This method is commonly used in the manufacturing and assembly of high-precision devices, such as cameras, sensors, and optical instruments. In contrast to "passive alignment," where components are assembled based on predetermined measurements or templates, active alignment adjusts the components in real-time while…

Advantages of UV Cure Epoxy

Cationic epoxy, more commonly UV cure epoxy, refers to a type of epoxy resin system that cures through a cationic (positively charged) polymerization mechanism. Epoxy resins are polymers widely used in various industrial applications, including adhesives, coatings, and composites, due to their excellent adhesive properties, chemical resistance, and mechanical strength. In a cationic epoxy system, the curing process involves the reaction of epoxy groups (usually present in the resin) with…
