In the rapidly evolving landscape of consumer electronics (Speakers, phone, wearable, computer, a new breed of engineering professionals has emerged: soft goods engineers. These experts specialize in the intricate design, prototype and manufacture of products using materials such as textiles, leather, silicone, adhesive and thermoplastic polymers. With their unique blend of mechanical design experience and material expertise, soft goods engineers play a pivotal role in bringing next-generation products to life.

The Role of Soft Goods Engineers

Soft goods engineers collaborate closely with design teams and manufacturers to develop innovative soft touch solutions for complex structural systems. Their hands-on approach involves working with a wide range of manufacturing equipment, assembling processes, tools, and maintenance procedures. From designing and fabricating soft goods for space exploration to crafting high-altitude applications, these professionals are at the forefront of technological advancement.

The Benefits and Applications of Bio-Based Hot Melt Adhesives

As businesses aim for more environmentally friendly adhesive options, bio-based hot melt adhesives have become a good choice compared to traditional adhesives. In this article, we will explore what bio-based hot melt adhesives are, how they are made, and the advantages and uses they offer. By understanding this innovative adhesive technology, companies can make informed choices to minimize their impact on the environment and support sustainable practices.

Web adhesive?

A hotmelt adhesive web is a nonwoven fabric with bonding capabilities. It is produced on a roll with a certain width and roll length. It can be applied through a lamination machine with a continuous process. Web rolls could also be cut into a specific form for piece-to-piece lamination. It exists different weight options depending on bonding requirements.

Polyamide hot-melt material and melting point options?

Polyamide adhesive is sometimes referred to as PA adhesive. Depending on polymer structure, it can either be thermoplastic or thermoset. In the case of hot melt adhesive, it belongs to the thermoplastic family. PA hot-melt web is made from Polyamide material. When the material gets heated, it could be activated starting to have an adhesion characteristic. When the temperature goes down, the material will become solid again. From low melt to high melt product range, it varies from 90 to 200 degrees.

In our daily lives, we see textiles everywhere. In various industries, textiles are the foundation for many applications. The textile industry is also likely to innovate more quickly than other industries due to its strong compatibility. Joining materials, such as adhesive, allows combining of various substrates together, adding extra value and functionality.

Apart from that, lamination technology provides a wide range of possibilities. Innovative adhesive web even takes laminating process to the next level due to its clean and made-on roll feature compared to traditional liquid or water-based glue. It allows a continuous lamination process with higher efficiency.

What is a thermoplastic adhesive web?

A thermoplastic adhesive web is a solid material with a nonwoven structure, it’s also called a hot melt adhesive web. When we put it on hand, it feels like fabric. Depending on the machine setting, it exists in different weights and structures.

How is hotmelt adhesive web made?

A perfect adhesive web is formed from a fine fiber that is cooled down into a continuous nonwoven structure. Due to its special structure, it makes the final material very soft, flexible, and breathable.
