INSULATED GLASS, WINDOW, & DOOR INDUSTRY: HOT MELT MACHINES
The Uniflow Model 4230 Drum Unloader is a great solution for insulated glass manufacturers and companies that manufacture windows and glass doors. This machine can melt and pump butyl faster than any competing machine, is easy to use, and is highly reliable.
HOT MELT DRUM UNLOADERS FOR WINDOW & DOOR MANUFACTURERS
Uniflow systems can be configured to work with your automated insulated glass manufacturing line, or it can be configured with 1 or 2 handguns for a manual operation. Uniflow hot melt handguns are machined out of a solid piece of aluminum, so they are built to last. Our low-force triggers make them easy to operate.

HOT MELT SYSTEM FEATURES AND OPTIONS
UNIFLOW CUSTOMER REVIEWS
“We installed a new Uniflow Model 4230 Hot Melt Drum Unloader for our insulated glass line, and we love it. The flow rate exceeded our expectations. We chose to buy a Uniflow because we have used drum unloaders from several other manufacturers, but our 25-year-old Uniflow performed as well or better than the others, with lower overall maintenance costs. Our material waste is low too. The Uniflow leaves only a few pounds of butyl in the bottom, if any. Also, if there is any air in the material, the Uniflow will continue to pump the butyl, although admittedly at a slower volume, until the air is eliminated. Other drum unloaders, in our experience, must stop and have the air bled before they will become usable again.”
