FAST FACT

  • → Gluing needs to be a well thought out and well tested solution. Gluing needs to be well controlled with
    proper dosing equipment, refrigerated storage, thorough application and curing instructions respected and complied to. Environmental and fatigue testing of samples is essential to ensure the correct functioning of the product over time. We do frequently use glue in our assembly products
    however, we do so with some caution and considerable testing cycles

ASSEMBLY

Goudsmit UK specialise in the assembly of multiple components, and over the last few years we have
developed substantial know-how relating to this field. We can offer the following assembly techniques:

→ Mechanical Assembly
→ Insert Moulding
→ Over Moulding
→ Gluing
→ Heat Staking
→ Welding
→ Brazing

For more information on these techniques please download a copy of our Assembly and Design brochure using the link below.

In order to illustrate the assembly techniques we use, we thought it best to show examples with some application backgrounds.

WELDED ASSEMBLY

In this application the client used two mouldings to
house a magnetic assembly. Normally assembled by
gluing, the parts often separated due to thermal
cycling. Goudsmit UK redesigned the assembly and
substituted gluing with ultrasonic welding. The result is a better cosmetic finish and a more stable and durable assembly.


ULTRASONIC WELDING
REPLACES GLUING

A combination of pressed aluminium and formed plates are welded together to form a sub-assembly, which is then anodised.

 

MECHANICAL ASSEMBLY




Tasked to combine a magnet and a shaft but not have the magnet come into contact with drinking water, we chose to avoid glue and encapsulate the magnet and shaft while mechanically coupling them using insert moulding. Cheap, very repeatable and very successful the assembly worked in the application with no issuesat all.

FDA COMPLIANCE WITH INSET MOULDING

A series of components manufactured in our factory are assembled using some press fit pins. Nothing complex. Simple, straightforward and very effective
