PLCs perform highly sophisticated computations and communications that automate electromechanical processes. Advanced materials help manage high thermal loads, bond materials, and protect against dust, contamination, and moisture ingress to bolster performance and reliability.
Using electric motor adhesives for magnet bonding reduces parts and lowers costs by replacing the need for mechanical fasteners and allows for smaller, more compact designs. Furthermore, Henkel’s range of electric motor magnet adhesives lower tolerances by filling gaps between the stator and magnet as well as the rotor to magnets.
Retaining compounds are ideal for use for bonding cylindrical fitting parts in electric motor housing where disassembly may be required for servicing operations. Retaining electric motor housing material compounds increase the torque load transfer of existing designs and provides an even distribution of load and stresses. Retaining compounds are also used to hold rotors to electric motor shafts. Henkel’s range of medium or high strength retaining compounds also help to reduce loosening and leakage caused by shock or vibration.
Threadlocking helps seal and protect threads from liquids and gasses, as well as eliminates bolt loosening caused by vibration or thermal cycling stresses. Our high-quality threadlocker materials help to maintain the proper clamp load over the life of the motor.
Potting compounds ensure electric motor reliability by providing electric motor thermal protection from environment effect by encapsulating and insulating components. The electric motor thermal management material protects components against impact, vibrations, thermal shocks, moisture, and dust. Our non-corrosive potting compounds increase motor efficiency and are ideal for electric motor thermal switches and connectors. Using electric motor thermal protection reduces temperature hotspots and results in better temperature distribution and, therefore, increased motor reliability.
Henkel’s range of chemical resistant gasketing sealants fill gaps and provide a flexible seal that will not tear or disintegrate over time. Using a liquid gasketing sealant reduces overall material costs and eliminates manual assembly of conventional cut gaskets. Liquid thread sealing materials provide chemical resistance and seal threads against industrial liquid and gas leaks. Our range of thread sealing products prevent corrosion and are available in low- and full-pressure seal formulations.
Modern-day motor drives are integrating more complex power devices to manage growing energy efficiency requirements, requiring a thermal interface material (TIM) to manage new performance challenges and higher power densities. Our thermal interface materials provide robust regulation of operational heat dissipation for consistent, long-term performance.
Electric motors must be manufactured with increased durability, lower costs, and greater motor efficiency. Advanced materials help by providing electric motor adhesives, industrial sealants, thermal management materials, and functional coatings to deliver maximum motor reliability and cost-effective production.
