Designed for the two-part structural adhesive dispensing process, the new 3M™ Adhesive Mix Monitor enhances quality control, simplifies processes, and helps ensure that adhesives will be mixed as expected. It is the first system to provide real-time feedback on the adhesive mix quality during the dispensing process, taking the guesswork out of using two-part adhesives:

Using proprietary 3M technology, the system uses disposable sensors and a small processing unit that streams data in real time, giving users visibility into their dispensing process, whether they are in the room or on the other side of the globe. The system utilizes red and green light indicators to present data that is clear and easy to understand and alerts operators to dispensing issues as they occur, minimizing rework and reducing the need for slow and costly checks. Additionally, the technology adds a level of traceability to two-part adhesive dispensing.

The system works exclusively with 3M two-part structural adhesives and easily integrates into existing manufacturing processes with simple setup, a small footprint, and just a few pieces.
