Robatech’s smart Vision melter, (shown) the fully insulated Performa heated hose, and the SpeedStar Compact application head form a dream team for energy-saving and reliably precise hotmelt application on primary and secondary packaging. With this application system, it is possible to reduce energy consumption by around 30 % compared to similar systems.
The Vision melter keeps the adhesive viscosity constant and ensures a stable adhesive pressure. With the Smart Terminal—a new type of LED status display on the melter—the operating personnel can see even from a distance whether the gluing process is running smoothly or, for example, whether adhesive needs to be refilled. Vision is certified by MET and therefore complies with the relevant safety standards in the industry.
The Performa heated hose is quickly and easily connected to the application head and the melter using the PrimeConnect plug-in coupling in a plug-and-play process. And with the SpeedStar Compact electric jetting head, Robatech demonstrates the value of the automatic stroke control: The intelligent control electronics ensures precise application of millimeter-sized hotmelt dots and short beads — constantly and over the entire service life of 500 million operating cycles.
