What is Adhesive Lamination?

adhesive lamination

Adhesive lamination is a critical process for bonding multiple layers of materials together using various adhesive technologies. At CGR Products, we specialize in creating durable, high-performance laminated components that meet the rigorous demands of diverse industries. Our expertise ensures a strong, reliable bond for your specific application, making lamination an essential part of manufacturing.

Whether you need to combine dissimilar materials or enhance the properties of a single substrate, our advanced capabilities for lamination provide custom solutions for improved functionality, aesthetics, and protection.

 

Lamination Capabilities Quick Reference

Lamination Type Max Width / Spec Compatible Substrates Key Operational Advantage
Hot Roll Lamination Up to 84 inches Carpet, textiles, nonwovens, foams, films, plastics Wide-format multi-layer bonding; ideal for glue web lamination & reactivatable adhesives
Rotary Lamination Up to 16 inches 3M VHB, copper foils, Mylar, automotive masking tape High-volume inline production; ability to laminate and die-cut in a single pass
Thermal Lamination Up to 500°F heat threshold Polyurethane foam, sound attenuation materials, felt High run speeds using heated drums or platens for strong permanent structural bonding
Film Barrier Lamination Custom roll specifications Open & closed cell foam, sponge rubber, specialty fabrics Creates protective barrier layer for enhanced durability, fluid barrier, and moisture resistance

Our Lamination Capabilities

Thermal Laminating

Our thermal lamination products are bonded at temperatures up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit with high run speeds. This process is ideal for materials like polyurethane foam, improving handling characteristics and sound attenuation. We use heated drums or platens to ensure a strong, permanent bond.

Engineering Questions and Answers

1. What is the maximum material width CGR Products can laminate?

Answer: CGR Products can handle material widths up to 84 inches for hot roll lamination applications, including textiles, foams, carpets, and non-wovens. For high-speed rotary lamination applications, we process continuous rolls up to 16 inches wide.

2. Can CGR laminate pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) directly to sponge rubber or foam?

Answer: Yes. We specialize in bonding acrylic and rubber-based pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) to open-cell and closed-cell sponge rubber, polyurethane foam, and solid elastomers. We utilize precision tension control and pressure rollers to eliminate air entrapment, wrinkling, or substrate stretching during the bonding process.

3. Can lamination and die-cutting be performed in a single production pass?

Answer: Yes. Using our high-volume rotary lamination line, we can laminate adhesive backings or film barriers and die-cut finished parts in a single, continuous pass. This inline process reduces lead times, minimizes material handling, and lowers overall component cost.

4. What temperature range can CGR’s thermal lamination process withstand?

Answer: Our custom thermal lamination equipment operates at temperatures up to 500°F (260°C) using heated drums and platens. This allows us to bond high-temperature films, specialty webs, and thermal barriers without compromising structural integrity.

5. What adhesive brands and material suppliers does CGR stock for lamination?

Answer: CGR Products maintains an inventory of industrial-grade laminating adhesives from leading manufacturers, including 3M (3M Preferred Converter), Avery Dennison, Mactac, Adchem, and Rogers Corporation. We stock transfer tapes, single and double-coated tapes, and high-tack acrylic or rubber formulations for low-surface-energy (LSE) materials.
