THE ACTUAL ROBOTIC APPLICATION OF TWO COMPONENT ADHESIVES IS VERY SIMILAR TO ONE COMPONENT ADHESIVES BUT THERE ARE SOME DISTINCT DIFFERENCES. THE TWO COMPONENT ADHESIVES HAVE SOME DISADVANTAGES WHEN COMPARED TO ONE COMPONENT ADHESIVES. TWO COMPONENT ADHESIVES REQUIRE A RATIO CHECK AT LEAST ONCE A SHIFT AND REQUIRE TWICE THE NUMBER OF SUPPLY PUMPS, AN ADDITIONAL INLET/RELOAD VALVE, METERING CYLINDER ASSEMBLY, OUTLET VALVE AND HOSE. BUT THE ADVANTAGES OF QUICK HANDLING STRENGTH AT ROOM TEMPERATURE (FOR SHIPPING), THE REDUCTION OR ELIMINATION OF INDUCTION HEATING, THE ELIMINATION OF CURING OVENS, THE ELIMINATION OF SPOT WELDS, WHICH CAN BURN THROUGH THE PROTECTIVE GALVANIZED COATING AND THE REDUCTION OF FLOOR SPACE REQUIRED FOR THESE FIXTURES, ALL HELP TO MORE THAN OFFSET ANY DISADVANTAGES.
