Bindery Innovations At PRINT 09
For perfect binding applications, Nordson introduced its new PURBlue 4 adhesive melters, the latest generation of its moisture-curing reactive (PUR) adhesive application systems. The melters can process two-, three- or four-kilogram foil encased slugs of PUR adhesive. Ideal for low-volume spine gluing operations, the "melt-on-demand" systems heat only the adhesive needed, reducing thermal stress, protecting bonding characteristics and minimizing adhesive residue. PURBlue melters quickly disassemble for cleaning and maintenance.
