Equity™ UFD Spray - Auto Adhesive Applicator

UFD Equity™ is an air-operated, multi-module hot melt adhesive applicator assembly with integrated basket filters designed to prevent particulate matter from obstructing adhesive flow.

Overview

Designed for wide-web distribution, the stackable UFD applicators are modular and can be combined to produce segmented applicators with 1 to 200 ports. Providing accurate, wide application while improving bond strength and reducing adhesive usage.

Features

  • Applicators are modular and may be combined to produce segmented applicators of 1 to 200 ports (6in to 200in).
  • Consistent coat weight application eliminates ridges and valleys common when using swirl applicators
  • Patterns are not line-speed limited
  • Line-speed tracking and consistent coat weights regardless of the variances of web speed
  • Web width pattern changes without interruption when utilizing multiple solenoid inputs
  • Adhesive Add-on weights from .02 grams per linear meter per strand
  • Adhesive Savings up to 70% over spiral or all other types of non-contact application methods
  • Vertical or horizontal nozzle mount HS Series modules available

The Dynatec Difference

Patented Technology
Many companies say that they are innovators by providing techniques for laying down fiberized adhesive (spiral swirl and random fiber), but only ITW Dynatec has the patents to prove it.

ITW Dynatec invented Laminated Plate Technology, which is used in all ITW Dynatec UFD nozzles and is the most effective way to lay down fiberized adhesive. The unique and patented configuration of the laser cut, stainless steel-laminated plates is the only configuration on the market that allows the production of the Omega™ adhesive pattern and the production of the most effective Random Fiber pattern available.

This new product spawned many imitators, but none have been able to match the performance provided by ITW Dynatec’s Laminated Plate Technology. When you use UFD Fiberized Spray applicators from ITW Dynatec, you can be certain that you are using the best product on the market.
