We will be exhibiting at the Adhesive and Bonding Technology Exhibition 2024 held on May 24, 2024.

This is a surface treatment technology that dramatically improves the adhesion of fluororesin films and polyimide films, which have been considered difficult to bond until now.

At Kawamura Industries, we apply plasma treatment to films, metal foils, non-woven fabrics, and more, performing surface modifications such as hydrophilization and hydrophobization. This treatment significantly improves the adhesion of various films and allows for the removal and purification of organic substances from the substrate surface. It can effectively remove residues such as rolling oils that are difficult to completely eliminate with wet cleaning. Additionally, it is possible to bond various materials together without the use of adhesives. **Features of Kawamura Industries' 'Vacuum Plasma Treatment'** - Dramatically improves adhesive strength - Effectively removes rolling oils and organic substances, purifying the surface - Enables adhesive-free bonding of various materials - Selects suitable gas types and plasma treatment conditions for each project - Treatment effects last for an extended period - Continuous processing is possible with roll-to-roll technology *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

It is a material with excellent heat resistance, oil resistance, and hydrolysis resistance, eliminating the need for adhesives. Suitable for insulation applications in EV/HEV vehicles!

Kawamura Industries' "Namil" is a material that is directly bonded without the use of adhesives, thanks to our unique plasma surface treatment and thermal lamination technology. Since it is manufactured through a process that does not use any adhesives or solvents, there are no emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), contributing to the reduction of environmental impact on the Earth. By using aramid paper on both sides, we enhance heat resistance and varnish impregnation, and by using PPS film in the intermediate layer, we improve hydrolysis resistance. It is also possible to produce a high heat-resistant grade using polyimide film for the intermediate layer. **Features of Kawamura Industries' "Namil":** - Excellent heat resistance due to being adhesive-free - Thin and excellent thermal conductivity due to being adhesive-free - Superior varnish impregnation due to the use of aramid paper on the surface - Excellent oil resistance and hydrolysis resistance. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

CLT, which has been widely adopted in the construction field, is now expanding its applications into the civil engineering sector. The "Hyper CLT Mats" are civil engineering CLT products that utilize wood CLT as temporary materials. Traditionally, steel plates have been the mainstream choice for temporary roads, access routes, and heavy machinery yards. The Hyper CLT Mats introduce a new option of "wood" to that market. The 5x10 mats weigh approximately 230 kg, making them lightweight and easy to install and remove with small machinery, with a maximum capacity of 40 mats on a 10-ton truck. They also have advantages in terms of workability and transportation efficiency. Moreover, they offer added value that can only be achieved with wood, such as glare reduction, noise control, CO2 fixation, and consideration for aesthetics. This product is expected to be a new proposal for not only construction companies but also building material firms, lumber companies, and material trading companies. It is a registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS, with the registration number "TH-250021-A." The use of wood is not limited to construction anymore. The utilization of Hyper CLT Mats is expanding as a new market that connects civil engineering and wood.

In civil engineering sites such as mountainous areas and construction sites, it may be necessary to use wooden boards on slopes or inclined access roads. Hyper CLT boards are civil engineering materials utilizing wood CLT, which can be laid not only on flat ground but also on sloped terrain. They can be used for temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery entry paths, and measures against muddy conditions, creating a driving environment that takes advantage of the unique surface characteristics of wood. The 5×10 board weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 board weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to install and remove even with small machinery, which is a notable feature for maneuverability in narrow sites. This wooden board is registered as a technology under the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's NETIS system as "TH-250021-A," and can also be utilized for safety measures and innovative ideas in public works.

Stable adhesion to rough and uneven surfaces such as stone, sheet metal, textured glass, and wood. Piab's "PX Suction Cup Series" is designed for handling rough surfaces, patterned surfaces, and uneven workpieces that are difficult to hold with standard flat suction cups. The high-conformity EPDM sealing ring adapts to the irregularities and shapes of the work surface, while the rigid aluminum support plate and internal support pad provide a stable grip. The internal support pad helps stabilize thin sheets and delicate workpieces while minimizing suction marks. It is suitable for demanding industrial applications involving stone, metal, glass, and wood. Additionally, a cone valve integrated version is also available. By preventing leaks from suction cups that do not contact the workpiece, it enhances safety during transport while reducing air consumption. This is also effective for energy-saving measures in large-area grippers that use multiple suction cups.
