This machine has two electronic temperature controls. One is for the adhesive melt chamber, and the other for the coating roll tank. The dual controls allow precise control of adhesive temperature – within 1 degree F. Hot melt adhesive can be added to the melt chamber of the coater without shutting the machine off.
A powered silicone covered feed roll presses the part against the coating roll to be sure that it receives a full coating of adhesive.
The Schaefer hot melt roll coater has a cantilevered feed roll, so it can be used to apply adhesive coating to either a strip along one edge of a part or it can be used for application to the full surface of the part (up to the full width of the coating roll). An adjustable feed guide is mounted to the feed table to ensure consistent and accurate width of adhesive application when coating only a section of the part. The machine is adjustable for coating parts from .010” to 1” thick
This coater is used to apply hot melt adhesive in shoe and orthotics manufacturing, leather goods assembly, foam fabrication, packaging, product labeling, automotive interior parts production and many other applications where a thin coating of hotmelt adhesive needs to be applied quickly.
