Custom material processing for special vehicles

What needs does custom cutting meet? In speciality vehicles, there are as many assembly needs as there are applications. In order words, each customer has unique needs so it's up to the material supplier to adapt.


Assembly solutions for specialty vehicles

Specialty vehicle applications require versatile, durable, and fast-acting assembly solutions.
The advantages of using ADDEV Materials' sealants, adhesives, and tapes include:


Speciality vehicle assembly – sealing

Ambulances, tractors, refrigerated trucks, motor homes, etc.
These specialty vehicles all require the use of assembly and sealing solutions.
For example, for campers and caravans, many applications are possible:


Custom assembly of refrigerated trucks

ADDEV Materials offers its customers support in optimising the assembly solutions they use on a daily basis.
The following example shows how ADDEV Materials was able to replace a complex and time-consuming assembly solution, with a simple, tailor-made solution.


What is material assembly?

Making an assembly consists of joining 2 materials together, in order to create a mechanical link.
In this article we will detail the different assembly techniques.


POS Assembly - Our Custom Solutions

ADDEV Materials' core business is the conversion of materials into films, tapes, or parts. Below are our custom converting solutions for the POS industry.


Adhesive Tapes: When to use them

Adhesive tapes are materials in film form onto which an adhesive mass is applied.
Thanks to their ease of use and versatility, these products are used for both material assembly and a wide variety of technical applications. Here is an overview of the use of adhesive tapes in industry.


When should you use viscoelastic acrylic foam?

Consisting of a viscoelastic adhesive on each side, acrylic viscoelastic foams are high performance adhesives.
Below are the main benefits of these products.


3M™Dual Lock™, Velcro™, and 3M™Scotchmate™removable fastening systems

POP users, especially in the event industry, sometimes need assembly solutions that are removable, discreet, and durable.
The 3M™Scotchmate™ and 3M™Dual Lock™ hook-and-loop fastening systems are ideally suited to meet these needs.


What is an electrical insulator and in what forms can it be found?

Present in all industrial sectors, electrical insulators are indispensable elements, as they serve to protect equipment and people. These insulators come in hundreds of combinations of shapes, materials and assemblies, for sometimes very different applications. Here is a quick overview of these materials.


What are the different types of electrical insulation?

Because they prevent the passage of electrical current between two conductors, electrical insulators are used in many applications. Below are the different electrical insulation solutions offered by ADDEV Materials.


Choosing the right electrical insulation for the thermal class of your equipment

In addition to ensuring a dielectric function , an insulating material must also have a temperature resistance corresponding to the conditions of use of the equipment to be protected.
This capability is characterized by the thermal class and must be specified in the specifications.


What are the cutting processes for insulation and technical films offered by ADDEV Materials?

When they leave the manufacturer's premises, electrical insulators are available in rolls or boards.
ADDEV Materials puts its expertise at the service of its customers by proposing the functionalization and the cutting of these insulators, in order to meet the specifications of the most demanding customers.


Gain in performance by modifying the design of electrical equipment, thanks to insulation

There are several reasons why you may want to replace the electrical insulation materials in your existing equipment:


All about the deterioration of dielectric properties

No insulating material has an unlimited lifespan and the dielectric properties can degrade over time. Although the deterioration factors for these insulators may vary, the consequences are always the same: failure of the equipment to be protected. It is therefore essential to always choose the material adapted to the specifications.
