Challenges in high-tech
and electronics
In the high-tech and electronics industries, the challenges lie mainly in the combination of precision, scalability and reliability. Adhesive bonds must function within tight tolerances, while production processes are becoming increasingly automated and components are becoming smaller. Even slightest variation in dosing, curing or cleaning can lead to failures, downtime or product rejection.
That’s why this industry demands flawless process control and predictability. Adhesive joints must be reproducible, resistant to temperature fluctuations and mechanical stress, and fully traceable for audits or customer validation.
Common challenges include:
- Consistent quality at high production speeds
- Material aging and stress accumulation in miniaturized components
- Impact of cleaning, surface energy, and dosing on adhesion performance
- Traceability and documentation within tightly regulated manufacturing environments

Frequently asked questions about high-tech & electronics
How can I be sure an adhesive bond is strong enough for my application?
With laboratory tests such as the tensile bench, lap shear test, dolly test or norm tests according to ASTM D1002, we make the strength and durability of joints measurable.
Is it possible to reliably bond glass and metal?
Yes. With the right adhesives and pretreatments, a durable bond is possible. We provide independent adhesive advice to determine the best solution for your application.
Why are adhesion and cohesion so important in electronics?
Because they determine how well the adhesive adheres to the surface (adhesion) and how strong the adhesive layer itself is (cohesion). Together, they ensure the reliability and longevity of the bond.
How does Lijmacademie help reduce failure costs?
By testing connections and optimizing processes in advance, problems become visible early. This prevents production errors and unexpected failures in practice.
What value does independent adhesive consulting provide?
You get an informed choice of adhesive type and process, based on testing and international standards. This saves time, costs and avoids discussions with suppliers.
