Glue Stick (Yellow)
Adhesives and Fasteners
The Glue Stick (Yellow) is a type of hot melt adhesive used in various IoT applications, particularly in prototyping, DIY projects, and electronics assembly. This component provides a strong and reliable bond between different materials, including plastics, metals, and wood.
The primary function of the Glue Stick (Yellow) is to create a strong and durable bond between two surfaces. When heated to a high temperature, the glue stick melts and forms a viscous liquid that can be applied to the desired surfaces. As it cools, the glue solidifies, creating a strong and permanent bond.

Glue Stick (Yellow) Component DocumentationOverviewThe Glue Stick (Yellow) is a type of adhesive component used to bond various materials in IoT projects. This yellow-colored glue stick is particularly suitable for bonding plastics, woods, and other materials commonly used in DIY and prototyping applications.Technical SpecificationsColor: Yellow
Adhesive Type: Acrylic-based
Bonding Temperature: 100C - 150C
Curing Time: 10 - 30 minutes
Material Compatibility: Plastics, Wood, Paper, Fabric, and othersCode Examples### Example 1: Using the Glue Stick in a Simple Robotics Project (Arduino)In this example, we'll demonstrate how to use the Glue Stick to bond a small plastic wheel to a motor shaft in a simple robotics project.Hardware Requirements:1 x Arduino Board
1 x DC Motor
1 x Plastic Wheel
1 x Glue Stick (Yellow)
Jumper WiresSoftware Requirements:Arduino IDECode:
```c
// Define motor pin connections
const int motorPin1 = 9;
const int motorPin2 = 10;void setup() {
// Initialize motor pins as outputs
pinMode(motorPin1, OUTPUT);
pinMode(motorPin2, OUTPUT);
}void loop() {
// Rotate the motor clockwise
digitalWrite(motorPin1, HIGH);
digitalWrite(motorPin2, LOW);
delay(1000);
// Rotate the motor counterclockwise
digitalWrite(motorPin1, LOW);
digitalWrite(motorPin2, HIGH);
delay(1000);
}
```
Assembly Steps:1. Apply a small amount of the Glue Stick (Yellow) to the motor shaft.
2. Carefully attach the plastic wheel to the motor shaft, ensuring proper alignment.
3. Hold the wheel in place for a few seconds to allow the glue to set.
4. Let the assembly cure for 10-30 minutes, depending on the environment.### Example 2: Using the Glue Stick in a Wearable Project (Micro:bit)In this example, we'll demonstrate how to use the Glue Stick to bond a small fabric patch to a Micro:bit-based wearable device.Hardware Requirements:1 x Micro:bit Board
1 x Fabric Patch
1 x Glue Stick (Yellow)
Jumper WiresSoftware Requirements:Micro:bit IDECode:
```python
from microbit importwhile True:
# Read accelerometer data
x, y, z = accelerometer.get_values()
# Display accelerometer data on the Micro:bit screen
display.scroll(x, y, z)
```
Assembly Steps:1. Apply a small amount of the Glue Stick (Yellow) to the back of the fabric patch.
2. Carefully attach the fabric patch to the Micro:bit board, ensuring proper alignment.
3. Hold the patch in place for a few seconds to allow the glue to set.
4. Let the assembly cure for 10-30 minutes, depending on the environment.Note: These examples are for illustrative purposes only and may require additional components and assembly steps depending on the specific project requirements.
