Hot melt feed

Nordson's (Duluth, GA) vacuum feed system maintains a preset adhesive level in Nordson's hot melt applicators to save operator time while ensuring continuous hot melt application.

Nov 30, 1995

When the system detects a predetermined low level it conveys ambient-temperature hot melt from a storage bin to the applicator. Reduces char and risk of thermal shock and poor bond performance.
