Automatic Adhesive Feeder for Hot Melt Pellet Supply Systems
The Meler Automatic Adhesive Feeding System is designed to maintain a consistent adhesive level in hot melt melters by automatically transferring adhesive pellets from a sealed container to the tank. Using a sensor-based system, it detects low adhesive levels and automatically refills the tank without operator intervention.
Its closed, hermetic design helps prevent contamination and adhesive degradation while improving operator safety by eliminating manual refilling. With integrated vibration to prevent material compaction and support continuous flow, the system ensures reliable adhesive supply and reduces unplanned downtime in production environments.
Features and Benefits of the Meler Adhesive Autofeeder
-
Automatic Adhesive Refilling: Maintains a consistent adhesive level by automatically transferring pellets when low levels are detected.
-
Hermetically Sealed System: Prevents contamination, dust ingress, and adhesive degradation to protect material quality.
-
Integrated Vibrating System: Prevents pellet compaction to ensure smooth, consistent adhesive feeding.
-
Improved Operator Safety: Eliminates manual refilling, reducing exposure to hot materials and risk of burns.
-
Continuous Production Operation: Prevents adhesive run-out to reduce unplanned downtime and line stoppages.
-
Level Monitoring and Alarm System: Provides visual and audible alerts for low adhesive levels and feeding faults.
-
110 lb Container Capacity: Supports longer run times and reduces refill frequency.
