Smartphones are becoming increasingly important in our society. They are becoming more and more powerful, and the increasing number of functions means that we rarely let them out of our hands. The quality of the cameras plays a crucial role, whether for payment processes or social media activities, even in challenging environmental conditions.

Increasing quality requirements for camera systems, such as higher resolution while at the same time becoming smaller, require very precise production. Meanwhile, there is growing pressure to make the production chain more cost-efficient. The camera systems must be manufactured at low cost, in reproducible processes without rejects, and with high optical precision. The materials used, the surface pretreatment of the components for the subsequent active alignment process of the lenses, and the bonding process itself play a decisive role here. In addition, the already installed electronics must not be damaged in the process.

In this PlasmaTalk, Mr. Dr. Hose (DELO) and Mr. Schüßler (Plasmatreat), will show the possibilities that result from a combination of customized adhesives and Openair-Plasma®. The interaction of a surface pretreatment with plasma and the subsequent selection of the right adhesive can not only achieve a certain functionality, but also increase process reliability and aging resistance.

After attending this PlasmaTalk you will know more about this:

  • Which materials play a role in camera construction
  • How the camera alignment process works
  • Choosing the right Openair-Plasma® nozzle without affecting the installed electronics 
  • Influencing factors in production to achieve process reliability and increase product quality

This PlasmaTalk is aimed at research, development, and quality control personnel as well as designers, process engineers and operators of production equipment in industrial processes. The PlasmaTalk will last approximately 40-60 minutes plus a Q&A session. If you have a specific question, please submit it in advance to academy@plasmatreat.com.

Please note that due to our international audience, we provide the time slot in UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). Please check your time zone using the time calculator below (TimeCalc).
