Lamination > Drying Period
After lamination, it's crucial to allow the laminated touch sensor and glass to dry undisturbed for 24 hours in a clean, controlled environment.
Drying Procedure
-
Place the laminated assembly flat, with the touch sensor side facing up.
-
Do not touch or manipulate the sensor during this drying time.
-
Ensure the surface it rests on is soft and non-abrasive—ideally foam-covered (see Fig. 18).
Recommended Environmental Conditions
To ensure proper bonding and avoid issues like bubbles or delamination:
-
Air temperature: Between 20°C and 25°C
-
Relative humidity: Between 30% and 45%
-
Drying time: Minimum of 24 hours
If possible, perform this step in a room with air conditioning or climate control, to maintain a stable environment.
