Discover the advantages of our strong, removable adhesive over other conventional fixing methods

F-GRIP is a 100% solid adhesive, unique in the market. With a high bond strength, yet easy to peel off and reuse, it is designed for temporary clamping in manufacturing processes and is particularly suited to advanced ceramic machining, where clamping of these parts is currently a challenge and a key factor in the profitability of the process.

What are the advantages of F-GRIP over conventional clamping methods such as jaws, vacuum or wax in the manufacture of optical glass and advanced ceramics?

Solves clamping problems

• Prevents workpieces from breaking in the clamp
• Does not deform the workpiece during clamping (does not create stress)
• Does not contaminate the part with adhesive residue (as other waxes do)

Improves machining processes

• Allows micron precision machining (up to 4 microns)
• Leaves the maximum number of faces free for machining (it is even possible to machine all 6 faces in a single pass)
• Increasing tool and coolant accesibility to the part
• Ensures strong clamping of the workpiece using less surface area (1000N/cm2 adhesive)
• Minimises breakage / poor finishes during machining
• Improves performance / machine life (dampens vibration)

Reduces production costs

• Saves raw material (reduces the number of defective parts). We have success stories where 100% of the parts are valid. See our success story
• Savings in machine downtime costs (reduces the number of rework operations to complete a part)
• Savings in labour costs (the fact that the part is finished in a single set-up allows the machining process to be automated)
• Savings on equipment and cleaning products (ultrasonic baths, solvents, etc.)

Contribution to sustainability and the environment

• Reduced waste (adhesive can be reused)
• Elimination of polluting solvents

Generates business impact

• Increased profitability of production processes
• Better market positioning (more competitive)
• Enter new markets with new parts (generate new business opportunities)
