Heat activated tape laminating machinery
Hot air is blown onto the heat activated adhesive immediately before it is laminated
onto the product by a thermostatically controlled hot air torch. The product conveyor carries the extrusion into the laminating wheel. The WL-30 Machine can be adapted to run a wide variety of extrusion profiles. The WL-
30 has two tape roll holding spindles but can be setup with the WL-40 Tape Splicing machine for a continuous tape supply.
OPERATING SEQUENCE
• The Tape is threaded through the guide rollers.
• Extrusion guides are adjusted to guide the extrusion smoothly to the laminating wheel.
• The laminating wheel pressure is adjusted.
•
The thermostatically controlled head torch which provides the hot air can be adjusted in two directions and a rotation to position the torch nozzle as close as possible to the nip point between the tape and the extrusion.
