Upcoming & On-Demand Webinars

Vibration is everywhere!  As the aerospace industry moves toward electrification of systems, there are many hurdles to overcome. Though it’s not a new challenge, vibration can cause damage to all types of components new and old.

Manufacturers have benefited from replacing mechanical fasteners with structural adhesives when bonding composites, plastics and painted metal. This presentation discusses a new generation of polyurethanes have low exotherm, odor and cost with rapid rate of cure.

Electric vehicle batteries, much like traditional combustion engine batteries need to be repaired or replaced as they age. As EVs are designed and rolled off the production line using more innovative materials for assembly, it becomes more complex to remove or repair battery pack components. This webinar will address serviceability of electric vehicle battery packs and different methods for assembly. 

Sensors are a driving force behind a lot of the position and motion technology on robots and drones. Join Justin Bessette, Engineering Technology Manager and David Fager, Sensing Sales Manager for a look at how technology is evolving in response to COVID-19 and how companies can get their products to market, quicker, with the right technology in place.

Take a virtual tour of our MRO Repair Station with Scott Waite as your guide. Our aviation repair station has been serving MRO customers since 1978 so you know we’ve got the expertise and tools to keep you flying.  But what really happens to a part that’s sent in for repair? We’ll show you the ins and outs of the process including cryogenic salvage to finished part and explain why each step of the process is critical to meeting your flight and safety needs.

Chemlok 3Stream is a new adhesion additive technology disrupting the LSR industry by transforming regular LSR into self-bonding LSR, without the premium cost and lead time associated with self-bonding LSRs or the labor and volatile organic compounds associated with traditional primer/adhesive applications.

Structural adhesives (acrylic, epoxy and urethane adhesives) improve appearance, strength and durability, while offering design flexibility and total cost savings. Compared to traditional fastening methods such as rivets, welds and fasteners, structural adhesives eliminate the costs associated with metal preparation and finishing operations to improve your manufacturing processes. These adhesives are used in a wide variety of applications across many industries. If you’re looking to learn more about adhesives, this is the webinar for you.

Chemlok 701 is a newly developed primer for bonding both mainstream castable polyurethanes and tougher to bond high-performance castable urethane products to metal. This primer was designed to perform well in tough environmental conditions like elevated temperatures and high humidity. In addition, the two-component system (CH 701/702) can be used for extreme conditions like direct water exposure at elevated temperatures.

Service Trucks and Specialty Vehicles are unique in that they are made based on the job(s) they’re going to carry out, and that often requires high-skilled labor, ever-changing designs and drawings, and lots of flexibility to meet end-user requirements.  Especially in the world of a pandemic, lead times are becoming increasingly long as both demand surges and product availability decreases. Want to alleviate some of these challenges?  In this webinar you’ll learn how structural adhesives hold up to various service truck applications, as well as how they can be used to increase design flexibility, product strength, and long-term durability while decreasing overall manufacturing time and costs.

Traditional joining techniques in the automotive industry includes welding and mechanical fasteners. However, many challenges arise when using these methods. By using structural adhesives, the need for mechanical fasteners as well as post-weld rework is eliminated. Adhesives also eliminate heat-affected zones and can double as a sealant. In traditional fastening methods, mounting lugs, screws, and rivets pierce through the aluminum battery box, which can cause a potential leak point and risks potential for outside moisture to seep into the battery pack. This presentation will dive into four top trends we’re seeing in the market for 2021 when it comes to thermal management solutions used in electric vehicle applications. Insights, data and real-world testing.

Offshore drilling is especially challenging due of the remote location and the dangers associated with operating in depths that can reach nearly 10,000 feet.  Mother Nature provides additional confrontations via wind, ocean swells, and heavy seas. Operating through the storms without expensive, unplanned downtime requires reliable and innovative products so you can drill longer and deeper without interruption. 

Shock and vibration are remarkedly different; but do you know how those differences affect your MWD directional drilling?  This webinar is focused on reviewing the principles, fundamentals, and challenges of shock and vibration in a downhole oil and gas environment.  In greater detail, shock and vibration theory, mitigation, and solutions will be discussed about how to successfully protect the MWD tool string from shock and vibration.  There will also be a brief overview of the Parker LORD family of downhole isolators.

Sipiol UV is a coating that cures with UV light in seconds and was developed for electric vehicle battery applications. This coating is electrically insulative and can eliminate the need for PET tapes. Attend this session for an overview of Sipiol UV product properties, applications, and performance data.
