Close and constant temperature control in rotary bonding is achieved through the use of ‘oil filled’ heating drums. This provides excellent bond quality, in terms of both the adhesive penetration of the product and the uniformity of the adhesion, across the width and throughout the entire length of the roll. Temperatures of up to 235 degrees Centigrade can be achieved across the BM series range, along with speeds of up to around 15m/min dependent upon model and process.
Touch panels make these machines easy to control, whether you are setting heat or speed parameters, or programming the start-up timer.
These bonding and lamination machines can also be constructed with cylinders in a variety of widths and diameters, to suit different customers’ needs. The wider the cylinder, the wider the product that can be processed; two rolls can even be processed at the same time. The larger the drum, on the other hand, the faster the production speeds achievable.
Where rotary or flatbed bonding may not be appropriate, as would be the case in PPE production, we offer ultrasonic bonding solutions, which do exactly what is required.

Different products require different parameters to achieve the correct result, so a combination of heat, time and pressure for one product may not suit a different product. Our broad experience in this field allows us to advise you on the most suitable combinations for treated, woven, non-woven, mono and bi stretch materials. To find out more, please get in touch.
