Adhesives are the backbone of modern assembly — and inkjet is finally ready for them. Until now, high-performance adhesives have been confined to analog dispensing methods because their viscosities (often well above 250 mPa·s) put them beyond the reach of conventional inkjet, which struggles past 50 mPa·s. Quantica's NovoJet™ Printhead changes that, opening a digital path for the materials that hold modern products together.

Two real-world adhesives, two demanding industrial applications. The session walks through Quantica's evaluation of an epoxy-based Henkel Loctite for fuel cell stack sealing and a methacrylate-based Kisling adhesive for e-motor lamella stacks. Each material brings different chemistry, curing mechanism (UV vs thermal), viscosity range, and process sensitivity — and each was successfully tuned for stable jetting through temperature and shear-rate control.

The rheology principles apply far beyond adhesives. NovoJet™'s ability to jet high-viscosity functional materials extends to coatings, encapsulations, thermal interface materials (TIMs), viscous resins, and particle-loaded fluids. The webinar closes by mapping the same temperature, viscosity and shear-rate framework onto these adjacent material classes — and what it means for manufacturers exploring digital, scalable production.
