Nordson solutions help decrease: material costs maintenance labor
The need to produce consistent, quality filters as cost-effectively as possible is a constant challenge. Whether for applications such as residential water treatment, automobile oil or industrial dust collection, filters must be able to perform in their intended application and environment. To meet the performance specifications, filters must be manufactured using accurate and consistent production equipment. Nordson adhesive dispensing equipment delivers precise, reliable application and also helps you optimize material use in manual, semi-automated or automated processes. As the media, frames and housings used in filter manufacturing encompass a wide variety of substrates, including plastics, metals and paper, an array of dispensed materials is needed for a finished filter. Nordsons vast product family provides solutions for virtually any adhesive and sealant material and produces a broad range of solid or foamed patterns. Whether intermittent or continuous, contact or non-contact application, Nordson dispense technology has the solution for you.
The Right Solution For You

Extruder Technology Nordson extruder systems are designed for efficient operation while protecting material integrity. The closed systems protect material from ambient air to prevent degradation and development of char. Combining lower operating temperatures with true melt-on-demand technology reduces thermal stress on material, helping protect bonding characteristics for improved finished product quality. The extruders operate efficiently with heat-up in 25-30 minutes; this is more energy efficient and contributes to reduced heat stress on system components and consequently less system maintenance and lower operating costs. Tank Melter Technology Nordson tank melters offer accurate thermal control for consistent, uniform material application. VersaBlue tank melters use a grid and reservoir design for easy processing of a wide range of adhesives. And, Nordson melters provide simple installation, daily operation and maintenance. The graphic touch-screen control displays status of tank, hose(s) and gun(s). Foaming Technology The Nordson family of foaming systems uses a patented process to combine ambient or heated adhesives and sealants with inert gas to create a closed-cell foam. The resultant foamed materials often display superior physical properties than solid materials while reducing adhesive consumption up to 50%. And, Nordson foaming systems easily integrate into most existing production lines for pleating, potting and end cap applications. Foamed adhesives are also a cost-effective substitute for twocomponent materials for some potting and assembly applications. Gun Technology Nordson offers a wide variety of dispensing guns to accommodate virtually any material used or pattern required. Development and consistent application of the right pattern helps you use the least amount of adhesive while maintaining the highest product quality. From tiny individual dots to wide laminate films, Nordson has a diverse range of single or multiple module options to meet your production needs. Specially-designed, rugged guns are also available for use with high-temperature or chemically-aggressive materials.
