Lamination

Lamination is bonding two or more layers of material together such as films, textiles or non-wovens. The material involved as well as the ways of connecting the layers are numerous and divers. In addition, the techniques that are used, highly dependent on the type of material and its final application.

Joint International focuses on lamination through Hot-melt substrates; a.o. powder, film or non-wovens made out of thermoplastic synthetics.

Laminating media

These laminating media "join" the layers together when they are made more or less fluent through temperature. Once sufficiently fluid the components are pressed together with the Hot-melt between the layers. Result is that the components are connected together, when the laminate is cooled. The Hot-melt regains namely it's solid form and acts as glue.

Industrial equipment

Industrial equipment is used for this process. This is usually a flatbed laminating presse or a calender. In a flatbed laminating press the layers that are laminated will be heated very gentle, due to this process and laminating media the materials will be bonded. They are used to join the most delicate fabrics for example, but also to compress and assemble composite materials. The possibilities are therefor very large.
