Automation Solutions for Chassis and Wheels

3M delivers structural adhesive liquids that enable reinforcement and, in many applications, replacement of mechanical fasteners. These liquids afford provide flexible working times making them suitable for quick, efficient application using automated mixing and application equipment. They are heat cured to structural strength at variable rates, using established OEM processes, so there's usually no need to add process steps for adhesive cure.

Composite-based, non-lead and very flexible, 3M™ Wheel Weight materials meet and exceed OEM performance standards and integrate easily into high-speed tire balancing processes. Level-wound rolls can be cut on demand, and 3M works with equipment suppliers to deliver semi-automated and fully automated wheel weight application solutions. Our wheel weight materials help reduce cycle times, balancer rejects and residual imbalance in wheel assembly. They may also reduce stocking costs related to parts and inventory.
