About Bales Innovation
Bales Innovation is a specialist in adhesive technology based in Schwabach. The company develops and manufactures systems and equipment centered around the cartridge: transfer systems for filling 1K and 2K cartridges from bulk containers such as pails, application systems for the precise application of adhesives to components, as well as pneumatic and electric metering systems with accuracy down to 0.1 g per application. In addition, cartridges, 2K ACF cartridges from Ritter GmbH, static mixers and accessories such as adapters, plunger-setting devices, follower plates, heating plates and cartridge presses are offered. Alongside systems engineering, Bales Innovation provides a contract filling service for small batches through to series production including quality inspection and labeling, as well as a transfer service for refilling cartridges, which can reduce adhesive costs by up to 30%. With the Adhesive Connect platform, the company also addresses the reuse of unused adhesives. Customers come from the automotive, aerospace, wind energy and chemical industries. The company was founded by Patrick Bales and works with service providers during its start-up phase; its sales partner is Innotech Marketing und Konfektion Rot GmbH.
