exceptional strength adhesion to a wide variety of engineering materials, ET5422 also bonds dissimilar materials, allowing a greater freedom of material selection. It is an ideal alternative to welding and mechanical fasteners and creates an impervious seal against moisture and chemicals. This easy to use, room temperature curing, epoxy adhesive has the capability
of maximising the performance of many bonding applications in industries such as sports equipment, automotive, marine and prosthetics to name just a few. The adhesive is mixed and dispensed via static mixing nozzles and can also be supplied for use with automatic dispensing equipment. Full cure can be achieved at room temperature, although cure times can be reduced with the application of heat. Let your bonded assemblies take off to stellar heights with Permabond
ET5422. Available in 50ml cartridges, 400ml cartridges and bulk on request.

manufacturer, Brillopak has built the vacuum generators into the end-effector head. Now, rather than sitting external to the end-effector, air is drawn into the centre of the head and fed to each of the five generators, all of which are contained within an internal casing, delivering more consistent, targeted and faster airflow. Tested against early- generation end-effectors, Brillopak reports a 45% reduction in air use when picking up and moving products of the same weight into retail crates. Brillopak director, Peter Newman, explained:
“When we examined the volume and flow rate data on the UniPAKer equipped with these new end effectors, we measured the compressed air system operating at a much lower stable pressure in shorter quicker bursts.” Creating sustainable value across the entire
packing cycle, by adopting this ‘whole system air flow approach’ and improved control and distribution of air, Brillopak reports a 10% reduction

cells with electronics up the line helps to pre-empt bottlenecks, address production lags and respond instantly. If no products are coming off the bagging machines down the line, idle conveyors stop. Sustainability is a never ending cycle of
improvements. “At Brillopak, every action makes a difference. We have a duty to examine all direct and indirect emissions. Applying the concept of the circular economy that everything has a value, we always use tried and tested energy-efficient components in every build,” added Newman. Conveyors used in Brillopak cells, for
in power usage compared to previous models. Servo drives are proven to be extremely efficient
relative to power use in automated cells. By carefully controlling all aspects of the work envelope, the acceleration and deceleration of the robotic arm is better controlled. Striking the optimum balance of fast acceleration and gentle pick and placement, the movement of the UniPAKer’s arm is fluid. “There’s no wasted time. As an electrically-powered robot, energy is only used when the robot is in motion,” said Newman. To help manufacturers meet the UK’s new
2050 Net Zero targets, Brillopak has expended a lot of energy re-examining all potential resource- intensive tasks, including the efficiency of every process and component to ensure power is not being wasted. For example, integrating Brillopak
example, are sourced from a company that only include motors, inverters and mechatronic drives with optimised energy efficiency. Likewise, the company optimises the payload/arm weight ratio to maximise efficiency. Automating tasks like case loading and palletising has long been presented as a solution to boost productivity and efficiency and address labour shortages. The same pressure is on for compressed air
systems. As an integral part of the manufacturing process they are unlikely to disappear any time soon. Yet, as Brillopak has uncovered, there are more sustainable options to reduce the psi which in turn reduces energy consumption.
