Nordson Corp. has announced the introduction of PURBlue
TM 4
adhesive melters, the latest generation of its moisture-curing
reactive (PUR) adhesive application systems. The PURBlue 4 melter
simplifies the use of moisture-cure reactive hot-melt adhesives from two-,
three- or four-kilogram foil encased slugs, without the need for inert gas. Designed
for use in low-consumption PUR applications, potential opportunities include
clear box packaging, bookbinding, edge banding and product
assembly.
PURBlue
4 melters heat only a small amount of adhesive as needed so reduce thermal
stress and protect bonding characteristics of unused PUR. The
user-friendly, intuitive design offers simple, reliable operation, allowing
empty foil bags to be quickly and easily changed while graphical controls
simplify programming and operation. In addition, the system allows
for easy access and quick disassembly to facilitate cleaning and
maintenance.
PURBlue
4 adhesive melters feature:
- A pneumatic
piston, providing optimal contact between the adhesive and melting grid to
maximize adhesive use from each bag and minimize adhesive residue
- Graphical
indicators and easy-to-use controls, to simplify programming and system
monitoring
- Sensors,
indicators and warnings for piston status, slug status and reservoir level
- A variety of
precision, variable-speed gear pump options, with key-to-line availability
- A choice of manual
or automatic pressure controls
- Single-tool,
quick-release access panels and a swiveling tank lid for maintenance and slug
changes
