ACR3 Hot Bonder

The Norske Backer ACR®3 Hot Bonder is a versatile and powerful bonding tool designed to make quick work of even the most challenging bonding projects, such as removing bulk and curing resins, prepregs, adhesives, fibers and more.

Controlling both heat and vacuum, the ACR 3 is compact and portable, making it ideal for on-site curing of composites, metal bonding and non-autoclave/oven processing applications. With an easy-to-use touchscreen interface, dual vacuum system and fast data transfer, the ACR 3 is an all-in-one composite curing control for a wide range of manufacturing and composite repair applications.

  • Built-in electric pump and vacuum venturi for each zone
  • Single or dual zone with 30 amp output per heating zone, 10 thermocouple sensors per zone
  • Data logger digital (USB drive) or via built-in printers
  • 3 year warranty


ACR 3 can be purchased as a set of composite curing blankets.

  • Voltage fluctuations in the mains: up to ±10 % of nominal voltage
  • Transient overvoltages: Usually found on a Category II power source: e.g. a lighting circuit. Power cord: 3 m long with optional plug (1 per zone).
  • Output cord for heater: 1.5 m long with plug compatible with Norske Backer composite curing blankets with 'C' plug. - Other heater output leads are available on request.

 

vacuum

  • Vacuum system: Built-in electric vacuum pump and vacuum venturi for each zone
  • Pressure: 28 inHg (711 mmHg)
  • Flow rate: 5.7 scfm (vacuum venturi); 0.9 scfm (electric vacuum pump)
  • Vacuum units: Programmable to inHg or mmHg
  • Vacuum adjustment: Possibility to manually adjust the pressure for each zone

 

Environment

  • Location: Intended for use in dry environments. Do not expose to wet spray.
  • Height above sea level: up to 2000 m
  • Storage temperature range: -20 to 60 °C
  • Operating temperature range: 5 to 40 °C
  • Maximum relative humidity: 80 % for temperatures up to 31°C, decreasing linearly to 50 % relative to humidity at 40°C
  • Degree of contamination: 2 - normally only non-conductive contamination occurs, but a temporary conductivity caused by condensation is to be expected.
