Many times, the component joining method is one of the last things engineers and designers think about when designing a structure or a product and might receive less attention than core materials selection or component design. However, taking the time to consider how to join parts and considering where to choose methyl methacrylate adhesive (MMA) technology can take designs to the next level in many ways

Every manufacturer producing assemblies is in a never-ending search for efficiency and continuous improvement. There are many paths to defining and achieving efficiency, among them:

Speed – reducing the time it takes to put an assembly together

Materials reduction – using lighter weight materials for easier handling

Reducing process variation- including elimination of tools and process steps

Increasing flexibility – expanding “production ready” places and times

However, most manufacturers don’t know how methyl methacrylate adhesives (MMAs) can contribute to improvements in each of these areas.
