The tobacco industry places special demands on the quality and precision of adhesive application in production. Whether gluing flip tops or glue flaps on cigarette boxes, adding tax stamps or onserts, or gluing foil linings: applying minute dots of glue with absolute precision is a basic requirement in this industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The electromagnetic tesla pro hot melt application head from Baumer hhs was long considered the benchmark of gluing technology worldwide. Now the German company has raised the bar on achievable precision yet again with its new PXH 1000 electric hot melt application head. \u201cThe PXH 1000 is the world\u2019s first electric hot melt applicator with the closing force of an electropneumatic head. It reaches an even higher level of quality in dispensing glue dots and eliminates tailing almost entirely,\u201d says Floriano Erario<\/strong>, technical sales manager for tobacco applications at Baumer hhs, describing the advantages of this pioneering innovation for gluing tobacco packaging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With triple the closing force, the PXH 1000 guarantees unprecedentedly clean cut-off in dispensing glue dots. \u201cOur new electric hot melt application head takes yet another step towards significantly minimising any contamination of the machines and the associated clean-up,\u201d explains Erario.<\/p>\n\n\n\n What is more, the PXH 1000 can apply adhesives in the 1,000 to 3,000 mPa\u00b7s range even at maximum machine speeds. If necessary, it can even handle viscosities of up to 7,000 mPa\u00b7s. In short, it gives tobacco packaging manufacturers added flexibility. With the new electric hot melt application head, they can apply not only ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) and polyolefin (PO) adhesives, but also pressure-sensitive (PSA) and fugitive adhesives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Like the tesla pro, the PXH 1000 has a long service life of around one billion cycles. It offers the same reliability and ease of maintenance for which all market-leading solutions from Baumer hhs for industrial gluing and quality assurance are well known worldwide. With these advantages, the PXH 1000 meets the criteria for improving sustainability in packaging production, because it supports a more stable production process, which generates less waste and whose system components need not be replaced as frequently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Baumer hhs has over 25 years of experience in adhesive application on packaging machines in the tobacco industry. \u201cBased on this expertise, we keep an eye on future developments and help our customers time and again to improve their products and manufacture them more efficiently. Our new hot melt application head is an example: It sets new standards that our competitors could not match even in the case of the tesla pro,\u201d Erario says. \u201cWith the PXH 1000, we have further strengthened our position as technology leader in electric adhesive application heads.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The latest technologies, including computer simulation, were used to develop the new application head. \u201cAdvanced technologies help us to optimise our products, and get them to market more quickly\u201d, Erario explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The new PXH 1000 hot melt application head is available now. Initially it will be supplied to users in the tobacco industry, but later other sectors will also be able to benefit from its high precision, quality and reliability in packaging production and end-of-line packaging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Before its release for distribution, the new PXH 1000 was tested for months in daily operation on the premises of Baumer hhs customers in the tobacco industry. The tobacco product manufacturers, their packaging suppliers, as well as the machine manufacturers were impressed with the performance level of the new equipment. \u201cIn view of this positive feedback from the tobacco industry, there can be no doubt that the PXH 1000 will easily meet the demands of other sectors.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The tobacco industry places special demands on the quality and precision of adhesive application in production.
