An apparatus and related methods for constructing articles with cured pressure-sensitive adhesives comprising (i) a coater that applies a curable adhesive to a membrane; (ii) a cross-linking apparatus adapted to receive said membrane with said curable adhesive, said cross-linking apparatus comprising a light source positioned a first predetermined height above an aperture plate having an aperture therethrough, wherein said aperture plate is positioned a second predetermined height, said first predetermined height and said second predetermined height selected to define an exposure area of light emitted from said light source on to said curable adhesive to form a composite product; and (iii) a roll adapted to receive said composite product, said roll adapted to control a speed at which said membrane with said curable adhesive is exposed to light from said light source.

Disclosed are UV curable adhesive compositions and methods to adhere polycarbonate substrates containing UV absorbers to glass for use in ophthalmic lenses.

A method is provided to fasten a pin in a target position extending at least partially into a cavity with a distance (D) between a bottom surface of the cavity and a facing end of the pin. The pin is positioned at the target position, and the distance (D) is determined between the bottom surface of the cavity and the facing end of the pin in the target position. The pin is removed from the cavity, and a rigid spacer is applied on the bottom surface. A thickness of the rigid spacer equals the distance (D) between the bottom surface and the facing end of the pin in the target position. The adhesive is filled into the cavity onto the rigid spacer, and the pin is repositioned at the target position. The adhesive is then cured to obtain a joint between the pin and the second component.

A method is provided for joining a pin member of a first component to a second component with a cavity, using an adhesive, to fasten the pin in a target position extending at least partially into the cavity. A distance (D) is provided between the bottom surface of the cavity and the facing end of the pin. A flexible spacer is positioned on the bottom surface of the cavity. The thickness of the spacer equals or exceeds the distance (D) between the bottom surface of the cavity and the facing end of the pin in the target position. The adhesive is filled into the cavity onto the flexible spacer, and the pin is positioned in the target position. The adhesive is cured to obtain a joint between the pin and the second component.

The invention relates to a bonding tool for a bonding device for bonding at least one component by adhesives to a substrate, the bonding device including a circular disc-shaped main body lying in a main plane and having an opening and a receiving head connected to the main body for receiving and holding the components, an orthogonal projection of the receiving head onto the main plane lying within the opening so that the receiving head is freely accessible through the opening. The bonding tool has a lighting unit integrated in the bonding tool for curing the adhesive. The invention also relates to a bonding device for bonding at least one component by adhesives applied to a substrate located in an assembly position, and to a bonding method for bonding components by adhesives applied to a substrate.

The invention relates to a method for producing an adhesive bond between at least a first and a second, at least partially transparent planar component, in which the first component is laid onto a support plate, and an adhesive is applied to the first component at specified locations on the side of the first component facing away from the support plate, and the second component is laid onto the first component and is held parallel to the first component at a predefined distance, in such a way that the second component comes into contact with the adhesive on the first component.
