Dispensing, potting & adhesive bonding solutions

Atlas Copco provides a comprehensive range of dispensing and potting solutions engineered for highly diverse and demanding manufacturing environments. In automotive production, our technologies support structural bonding and sealing of car bodies, glazing applications, lamp and display assembly, and a wide variety of powertrain processes. We also enable anti‑flutter applications and liquid sound‑dampening tasks used throughout body shops, paint shops, and final assembly lines. In electronics and EV manufacturing, our systems ensure precise potting and encapsulation of sensitive components, bubble‑free dispensing for connectors, sensors, LEDs, ECUs, and circuit boards, as well as highly accurate thermal management through the controlled application of gap fillers and thermal interface materials (TIMs). Within EV battery production, our solutions are essential for sealing, bonding, insulation, and heat‑dissipation processes. This extensive application portfolio guarantees high process stability, repeatability, and long‑term durability across all production environments.

Our dispensing systems are engineered to handle a wide variety of materials with different viscosities and chemical properties. These include epoxy resins, polyurethanes, silicones, rubber‑based formulations, and methyl methacrylate adhesives. Additionally, we process PVC sealers, thin‑layer dielectric coatings including UV‑curable materials, gap fillers for thermal management, and specialty waxes used for corrosion protection. Both one‑component (1K) and two‑component (2K) materials can be dispensed reliably and precisely. This versatility allows manufacturers to standardize complex production requirements while maintaining flexibility for evolving material technologies.

Atlas Copco dispensing and potting technologies are used across a wide range of industries that demand high levels of precision, reliability, and durability. Beyond automotive and electronics manufacturing, our solutions play a critical role in aerospace and medical technology, where advanced electronics require equally advanced dispensing, potting, and thermal management processes. Our technologies are also essential in renewable energy systems as well as in the production of white goods and household appliances. In general industry, we support manufacturing for agriculture, buses, trucks, rail vehicles, and cabin construction for tractors, construction machinery, and other heavy‑duty equipment.

Dispensing and potting processes come with a wide range of challenges, beginning with managing complex, often highly reactive material properties, as well as meeting demanding environmental durability requirements. Many applications also require robust thermal management, along with effective fire protection and corrosion protection, making process control even more critical. At the same time, manufacturers must maintain a high level of precision and accuracy throughout the application to ensure consistent, reliable results. Increasing productivity expectations, such as maintaining short cycle times and achieving rework‑free quality, add further pressure to production lines. Compliance with stringent industry standards like DIN 2304 and DIN 6301 increases process complexity even further. Atlas Copco systems are engineered specifically to address these challenges by delivering consistent, highly accurate, and reliable dispensing performance tailored to the needs of modern manufacturing environments.

The Scheugenpflug and SCA product lines complement each other to offer a complete, scalable portfolio for nearly every dispensing and potting requirement. The SCA product line is designed for high‑volume production and is ideal for processing medium‑ to high‑viscosity materials. It is widely used in the automotive and general industrial sectors, particularly in body‑in‑white, powertrain assembly, and EV battery production, where it delivers excellent dosing precision and process speed. The Scheugenpflug product line focuses on microdispensing and the processing of low‑ to medium‑viscosity materials. This makes it the preferred choice for electronics manufacturing, including applications in sensors, control units, and other vehicle electronics. Both product lines can be combined and integrated within a shared control platform, ensuring a consistent look and feel across systems and enabling modular, scalable configurations for almost any manufacturing challenge.
