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").
Benefits:
- Manufacturing cost savings
- Time savings
- Energy Savings
- Equipment Savings
- No autoclave or vacuum chamber required
