How IMMCO Helped A Global Leader in Tapes/Labels Grow With A Custom Hot Melt, Precision Metering System
When a major Global Tape/Label Company (referred to as TLC in the rest of this article) realized the need to expand their existing hot melt systems capabilities, they also identified an opportunity to streamline their process.To do that, though, they’d [...]
[Case Study] 3-Month Payback On New Uniflow Hot Melt Drum Unloader
This case study uncovers how an international Tape Manufacturer achieved a 51% pump rate improvement using the Uniflow Model 4230, plus realized huge savings from reduced material waste. A major manufacturer of adhesive tapes, wires & cables, and cable [...]
[Case Study] Hot Melt Equipment – Free Testing
A leading manufacturer takes the guesswork out of project justifications by offering free testing of their hot melt equipment. The purchase of new capital equipment is justified by the equipment’s capability, reliability, and payback. Here are a few questions [...]
Estimating the Cost of a Hot Melt Drum Unloader
Hot melt drum unloaders are used to heat high-viscosity polymers and pump them into a customer’s manufacturing process. Some of the hot melt materials that are typically processed include: Pressure Sensitive Adhesives (PSA) Polyurethane Reactive Adhesives (PUR) Butyl Cable Sealants [...]
Case Study: Hot Melt Drum Unloader That Improves Production Speeds
This case study demonstrates the significant advantages of the Model 230 Uniflow, specifically at Functional Coatings, a custom, private label contract manufacturing company. Hot Melt Drum Unloader Equipment Manufacturing Manufacturers have historically chosen Uniflow drum unloaders when facing unique challenges. [...]
[Case Study] – Hot Melt Drum Unloader Project for the Tape Industry
Worthen had recently installed two new hot melt drum unloaders built by a competitor, each of which was expected to pump 600 lbs of pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) per hour, but only ended up pumping 325-350 lbs per hour. That’s when UNIflow stepped in.
