Adhesive Dot and Pattern Application Systems
topic
Adhesive dot coating systems apply discrete adhesive droplets in regular grid or staggered patterns using gravure engraved dot rolls or inkjet adhesive printing at dot sizes of 0.5 to 3 millimetres diameter and defined dot density per unit area, providing partial area adhesive coverage that bonds the laminate at contact points while leaving inter-dot areas free for breathability, embossed texture, or selective bonding in composite constructions requiring partial-area adhesion.
Role
Enables flexible laminate constructions with controlled adhesive coverage that governs the breathability and handle of the bonded composite through dot pattern density and size selection, with discontinuous adhesive application being essential for breathable membrane lamination, soft flexible foam lamination, and comfort-critical apparel interlining applications where full-area coverage would create unacceptable stiffness or breathability reduction.
