Sometimes innovation starts with a simple but fundamental question. At Bomatec, it was one that had accompanied us for years:
A question that is crucial in design – but one that, despite our experience, never had a definitive answer.
- Too many variables.
- Too many scenarios.
- Too many possible sources of error.
The project When two specialists work together, the result is more than just a result – it is the creation of new standards. By combining Bomatec’s expertise in magnet technology with the high-performance adhesives of Kisling AG, we set out with a clear objective: to find the perfect adhesive bond for every magnet coating. Together with Kisling AG, we have developed a comprehensive test matrix in which various Bomatec magnetic coatings were tested with state-of-the-art industrial adhesives – realistically, resiliently, consistently.
The following were tested, among others:
- Shear and tensile strength in different scenarios
- Thermal and mechanical resilience in demanding environments
- Long-term stability for maximum application reliability
The solution
After a large number of precisely designed test cycles, we now know which adhesive and coating combinations deliver maximum adhesive strength. And, above all, under which conditions your application will remain stable over the long term.
- Significant differences depending on the combination: The right choice determines success or risk.
- Temperature as a game changer: Thermal loads influence the bond more than expected.
- Direction-dependent load capacity: Shear and tensile forces affect the bond very differently depending on the coating.
“Today we know exactly which combinations of adhesives and coatings provide maximum adhesion—and under what conditions.”
