ONSERT® Quick and process-reliable bonding of fastening elements with light-curing adhesives

ONSERT® Spotlight You want to join glass components or glass displays? You need attachment points on fibre-reinforced plastics? Extreme sealing or corrosion requirements imply further challenges to consider. The potential joining process should furthermore present robust results and be suited for manual as well as completely integrated use – and all of that within seconds. Your solution: The ONSERT® adhesive technology Quick joining of fasteners using light-curing adhesives with high process reliability. ONSERT® studs ONSERT® for cable management

ONSERT® Spotlight Basically, all geometries which can be produced in injection moulding are possible: screw joints on engineering plastic parts, detachable and non-detachable snap connections, bondable ball studs, etc. can be applied to materials such as CFRP, GRP, glass, paint, cathodic dip coating surfaces, plastics or metals. You also benefit from our optimised system approach: We offer processing with manual, battery-powered tools and even completely integrated robot applications. Convince yourself.

ONSERT® Technology An efficient joint The ONSERT® technology allows the quick bonding of fasteners on diverse materials using light-curing adhesives with high process reliability. For the curing light to reach the adhesive, the ONSERT® fasteners are made from transparent plastic or from metal with a transparent plastic overmoulding. The focus is on the short cycle times, the material-friendly process as well as the flexibility with respect to fasteners and method. Your advantages ■ Sophisticated appearance for design and visible surfaces (customer parts) -no breakthrough or rear projection ■...

ONSERT® Product variants As already mentioned, basically all geometries which can be produced in injection moulding are possible for the ONSERT® adhesive technology. Fasteners such as screws, threaded bushes, snap connections, etc. are provided with a transparent plastic overmoulding. The geometry provides for sufficient bonding surface. ONSERT® fasteners can be applied to materials such as CFRP, GRP, glass, paint, cathodic dip coating surfaces, plastics or metals. Explore our different ONSERT® variants: Plastic-metal hybrid versions There are fields of use where full plastic components cannot...

ONSERT® Product variants Full plastic version ONSERT® Smart If requirements allow, full plastic fasteners are used. This increases the freedom of design and also positively affects the adhesive curing time. Moreover, in most cases full plastic components can be produced more economically. Modular version A bottom part to join a variety of top parts with different functions One-piece version A function, e.g. ONSERT® Smart for cable management ONSERT® specials Your initial conceptional ideas are the starting signal to develop tailor-made solutions. Special design requirements, hybrid joints or...

ONSERT® Adhesives DELO is a leading manufacturer of industrial adhesives. For 60 years, the owner-operated company has been offering tailor-made special adhesives and device systems for applications in high-tech industries - from the automotive industry and aviation to optoelectronics to the electronics industry. From DELO‘s adhesive portfolio, we decided to use the DELO PHOTOBOND product family. It cures within seconds when exposed to appropriate light and is well-suited for ONSERT® bonding. Since DELO and Bollhoff cooperate closely, the adhesive can be perfectly processed in combination with...

ONSERT® Joining process Process description The joining process comprises only a few steps. They are illustrated below with the example of the ONSERT® Smart stud: Feed of the ONSERT® fastener Application of the one-component adhesive Touching the tool to the substrate Stable joint Detailed information about the respective bonding process and amount of adhesive is also provided in our „Technical Manual ONSERT®“.

ONSERT® Processing systems - ONSERT® Portable Mini (©O The innovative battery tool for manual bonding The first step into the ONSERT® process technology is with the Portable Mini, which is ideal for prototypes, small series and repairs. Your advantages ■ Small and easy to use ■ Exchange units for different ONSERT® fasteners allow an easy adaptation of the setting tool to different fasteners ■ Process control mechanisms for a safe use ■ USB interface for tool setup and definition of process parameters Delivery scope ■ ONSERT® Portable Mini setting tool ■ Attachment for light intensity meter DELOLUXcontrol...

ONSERT® Processing systems – Application of adhesive Application of adhesive with adhesive dispenser from 600-cc cartridge If the numbers of pieces are larger and costs must be reduced, adhesive can be applied from big cartridges by means of volumetric application technology. Another option to apply the adhesive is the use of 600-ml cartridges (20 oz). For those devices, an adhesive dosing system is required. The motives to use 600-ml cartridges are the reduced adhesive price, more precise dosing, more comfortable and faster processing as well as a more robust process in general. The main components...

ONSERT® Processing systems The most extensive expansion stage of automation is the ONSERT® pick-and-apply system. In combination with the application of adhesive it is an expansion and can be fully integrated into robot-controlled processing cells. Your advantages ■ Processing of fastening elements in pick-and-apply mode ■ Flexible adaptation to a new component geometry and workstation (e.g. if using cobots) ■ The robot can bond most diverse fastening elements (bolt diameter from 4 mm to 6 mm, bolt length from 10 mm to 50 mm) ■ Nuts and special fasteners can be bonded if the gripper jaws are...
