Fastfuse™ Radio Frequency (RF) Lamination

Ceralink, supported by the Department of Energy and the New York State Energy and Research Development Authority, has developed FastFuse™ RF Lamination. A radio frequency (RF) press is used to preferentially heat the polymer interlayer, leaving the glass relatively cool, while simultaneously applying pressure. The softened polymer permanently adheres to the glass or structural panels.

Ceralink has formed a strategic partnership with Thermex Thermatron to offer FastFuse™ RF Glass Lamination Presses. Ceralink has a FastFuse™ RF Lamination Press in-house for demonstrations and feasibility work up to 18" X 20" (shown below). We also provide testing for larger sizes through our strategic partner (currently up to 30" X 40").
