HCS9200B – Dual Zone Hot Bonder
The HCS9200B Hot Bonder is a computer monitored and controlled electrical heating composite repair system. The HCS9200B consists of two zones with separate sensor inputs to control the heat application, vacuum, and time necessary to cure critically sensitive composite resins and adhesives.
This compact and portable unit has handles on three sides for convenient handling and is extremely user friendly to provide a composite repair technician with complete control of the hot bond cure process. Check out this video on how to operate your HCS9200B.
