Efficient control of hot-melt gluing technology
Precision is a major challenge in hot-melt gluing technology.
Imprecise temperature control of the tank, pump, hose system or nozzle can have a massive impact on the processing quality in hot gluing. The results are uneven glue application and damage from system clogging.
If two-component adhesives are used, the requirements are even more complex. The boom being enjoyed by gluing technology, for instance in automotive engineering and the furniture industry, is leading to agile further development of the adhesives and as a result, to new requirements in the processing.
ELOTECH controls and hot glue systems provide reliable heating of the glue tanks and the nozzle, for precise dosing of the hot glue and complete monitoring of the process – all prerequisites for trouble-free and efficient automation.
