Electronics Potting & Encapsulation Dispensing: Choosing the Right System
Learn how to choose an electronics potting dispensing system: manual vs automated, one-part vs two-part materials, cartridges, static mixers, and guns.
AB Cartridge Connection Types Explained: Bayonet vs Bell-Mouth vs Threaded (A/B/C/F Systems)
Bayonet, bell-mouth, or threaded? Learn the three AB cartridge connection types, how Mixpac A/B/C/F maps to them, and how to avoid ordering the wrong interface.
200ml vs 400ml Dual Cartridges: Choosing the Right Size
Key Takeaways Size follows the shift, not the price. A 200ml cartridge suits single-station manual work; 400ml suits multi-station and pneumatic setups where changeovers cost more than material. Same interfaces, different roles. Both sizes mount the same C- and F-system mixers, so the choice is operational, not hardware. Ratio availability is equal. Both formats carry […]
Select Epoxy Mixing Ratios Explained: 1:1, 2:1, 4:1 and 10:1 by Volume vs Weight
Select Epoxy Mixing Ratios Explained: 1:1, 2:1, 4:1 and 10:1 by Volume vs Weight Getting the correct epoxy mixing ratio determines whether a two-part adhesive achieves its engineered tensile strength, glass transition temperature (T_g), and chemical resistance, or fails entirely on the production line. While epoxy systems are formulated across standard proportions—primarily 1:1, 2:1, 4:1, and […]
Adhesive Cartridges: The Complete Guide to Sizes, Materials, and Selection
Adhesive Cartridges: The Complete Guide to Sizes, Materials, and Selection Industrial dispensing precision depends as much on the fluid packaging container as it does on the automated valve or dispensing gun. Selecting the correct adhesive cartridge sizes, structural configurations, and barrel polymers prevents common manufacturing defects such as ratio drift, premature chemical curing, air entrapment, […]
Dual-Component Adhesive Cartridges: Sizing, Mix Ratios (1:1 to 10:1), and Material Compatibility
Dual-Component Adhesive Cartridges: Sizing, Mix Ratios (1:1 to 10:1), and Material Compatibility Selecting the correct 2k adhesive cartridge is essential for maintaining volumetric accuracy, preventing resin degradation, and avoiding mechanical dispensing failures. A dual-component cartridge serves as both a hermetic storage vessel and a precision volumetric metering cylinder. Choosing an incompatible system often leads to […]
1K vs 2K Adhesive Cartridges: Which Packaging Solution Fits Your Application？
1K vs 2K Adhesive Cartridges: Which Packaging Solution Fits Your Application？ Selecting the correct adhesive packaging system is a pivotal technical decision in industrial manufacturing and assembly. The choice between 1K vs 2K adhesive cartridges directly dictates dispensing accuracy, production line speed, material shelf life, and overall equipment investment. A 1K (one-part) adhesive cartridge stores […]
