How Much Glue Is Left in Your Nordson Tank? Our Technical Wizards Worked it out
When you switch hot melt adhesives, do you really know when the old glue is out of the system? Many engineers and production managers assume that once a Nordson tank looks empty, the adhesive has been flushed through. But our latest test shows that more glue remains than you might think.
The Problem
Adhesive changeovers can be risky:
-
Drain too far and you pull muck from the bottom of the tank.
-
Stop too soon and you’re still running old adhesive.
-
Switch from high-temperature to low-temperature adhesives without fully flushing, and the residue can solidify inside hoses and guns, causing blockages and downtime.
This uncertainty costs time, money, and efficiency.
