Optical Bonding

For more than 30 years, Rockwell Collins military and aviation clients have demanded superior displays that will perform 70,000 feet in the air or in the heat of battle. Rugged design. High optical clarity. Sunlight readability. Quick, reliable manufacturing. All backed by more than 150 dedicated display center professionals.

Now this technology is available to new markets, offering proven, industry-leading manufacturing quality and turnaround times for applications ranging from ATMs and cell phones to large-scale 3-D displays and rugged mobile computers.

At the core of this superior performance is our patented, environmentally friendly, production-proven optical bonding technology – Direct Dry Film™ – which outperforms optical liquid bonding. Features include:

  • Superior bond strength for the life of the display, with no delamination 
  • Rugged, damage-resistant properties in extreme environments
  • Perfect for custom, multilayer applications
  • Material type compatibility: glass, plastics, films and adhesives 
  • Material thickness compatibility: .05 mm to 40 mm
  • No optical degradations due to environmental exposure (solar, temperature and humidity)
  • No limit on diagonal size
  • Allows precise alignment of substrates
  • 100 percent reworkable
  • Environmentally green, free of hazardous liquid solvents

Whether you’re looking for off-the-shelf, standard-sized displays, custom solutions or the opportunity to license our technology for your application, we welcome the opportunity to work with you to accomplish your goals.
