Adhesive tapes for the production of dishwashers, washing machines and dryers

Today, adhesive tapes are an integral part in the production of washing machines and dishwashers. Whether in rolls or as high-precision die-cut parts, they fulfill a wide variety of tasks: They seal against liquids and thus protect the built-in electronics in control panels and displays, they compensate for component movements and make an important contribution to vibration and noise insulation.

The adhesive tapes from Lohmann's Home Appliance portfolio meet all of these requirements and thus increase process reliability and design freedom in the manufacture of household appliances.


Application of adhesive tapes in dishwashers, washing machines & dryers:

Front panel

 

Dishwasher - Control panels

Our foam adhesive tapes are particularly suitable as individual die-cut parts for attaching integrated control- and front panels with cutouts for buttons or displays. They fulfill several tasks at the same time: They seal against liquids, reduce vibrations and compensate for different thermal expansion of various materials.

 

Properties

  • Good compressibility
  • Stable compression set over the long term
  • Available in many thicknesses and densities
  • Good compensation properties for thermal linear expansion
  • Suitable for manual and automatic processing

Washing machine and dryer - Control panels

Control panels are more than just switches and buttons these days. They make a decisive contribution to the design and ease of use of the device. Almost all shapes and material combinations can be realizied . The strengths of our polyethylene foam adhesive tapes come into play in regards to curved control panels. They fulfill several tasks at the same time: They seal against liquids, reduce vibrations and compensate for different thermal expansion of different materials.

 

Properties

  • Good compressibility
  • Stable compression set over the long term
  • Available in many thicknesses and densities
  • Good compensation properties for thermal linear expansion
  • Suitable for manual and automatic processing

 

Dishwasher, washing machine and dryer - Printed electronics

With our thin, highly transparent transfer adhesive tapes, carrier films of the printed electronics can be laminated as well as directly bonded to the front panel over the entire surface. This ensures trouble-free functioning of the printed sensors.

 

Properties

  • Highly transparent
  • Acid-free
  • Suitable for polycarbonate and PMMA
  • Suitable for die-cutting
  • Flexible

Displays are cleanly and securely attached to the inside of the device with our closed-cell foam tapes. Die-cut parts ensure an efficient processing procedure and protect the display from moisture. We take your design and requirements of your production process into account.

 

Properties

  • Good compressibility
  • Stable compression set over the long term
  • Available in many thicknesses and densities
  • High dimensional stability
  • Suitable for manual and automatic processing

Lohmann offers single- or double-sided adhesive die-cut parts. These are made from closed cell foams and are available in different thicknesses. The die-cuts perfectly match your individual production process geometries. They also protect the electrical parts against moisture and dirt, thus making a significant contribution to noise- and vibration damping.

 

Properties

  • Good compressibility
  • Stable compression set over the long term
  • Available in many thicknesses and densities
  • Suitable for manual and automatic processing
