Nordson Problue 4 Hot Melt Gluer

• Sealing cardboard boxes and cartons in food production lines.
• Applying adhesive to packaging for various consumer goods.
• Assembly of non-woven products and product labelling.
• Automated case and tray sealing in high-volume operations.

Typical adhesive capacity

Units of this type commonly feature a melt tank capacity of approximately 4-8 litres, with external tanks like the 120 ltr bead storage tank mentioned providing bulk supply.

Power supply

Typically requires a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V AC, 50Hz, with a power consumption that varies based on tank size and hose/gun configuration.

Number of hoses/guns

This system includes two heated dispensing hoses and two heated modules with single dispensing guns, allowing for multiple application points or redundancy.

Adhesive type

Designed for use with various hot melt adhesives, typically in pellet or bead form, fed from the bead storage tank.

Throughput

For this class of equipment, throughput is dependent on line speed and adhesive application requirements, but these systems are designed for continuous operation in automated lines.

Temperature control

Commonly features precise temperature control for the melt tank, hoses, and guns to ensure optimal adhesive viscosity and application.

• What kind of maintenance does a hot melt gluer require?

  Regular maintenance typically involves cleaning the melt tank, checking hoses and nozzles for blockages, and ensuring all heated components are functioning correctly. Filter changes are also a common requirement.

• Can this system integrate with existing packaging lines?

• What are the benefits of an automatic filler and bead storage tank?

• Is this unit suitable for food contact packaging?

• What is the typical lifespan of dispensing hoses and guns?

Used sealing machines are generally valued for their durability and long operational life. Buyers typically prioritize machines with clear maintenance histories and minimal wear on sealing components. Key considerations include film compatibility, seal quality consistency, and ease of adjustment. Reputable models tend to retain functionality well across multiple applications. Industry sentiment suggests these machines offer strong value when sourced from reliable vendors, though operators should verify calibration settings and test seal integrity before full production use.
