Dynatec Hot Melt Adhesive Supply Hoses

ITW Dynatec’s hot melt adhesvie supply hoses are electrically-heated, flexible conduits designed for the transfer of hot-melt material from an adhesive supply unit (ASU) to an applicator (head or handgun). The hoses have the task of keeping the medium at a constant temperature during transport and compensating for heat losses.

Overview

Dynatec Hoses are heated by resistance heaters which are wrapped around the hose core and covered with a high-temperature insulation. Hose temperature is regulated by the ASU’s controller. A sensor located in the hose provides temperature information to the controller.

The Dynatec Difference

Gemini™ Hoses – with two heating circuits

Gemini

ITW Dynatec Gemini™ Hose is the only hot melt hose in the market that combines dual sensors and dual heaters. That means, Gemini hoses are equipped with a second heating circuit (extra heater and RTD sensor) and a manual switch assembly which allows switching the hose’s operation between the two heating circuits  That makes possible to activate the second heating circuit in case a hose failure occur, helping you reduce unexpected downtime.

In addition, our customers can benefit from:

  • Multiple electrical ground channels support a safe operating environment.
  • Electrical watt-density heating is hose length calibrated which reduces hose char.

Gemini™ Hoses are functioning with DynaControl. They are also available in water resistant (splash-proof) version, made so by their seamless flexible sleeving, sealed end cuffs and liquid-tight electrical conduit and fittings. Gemini will save you time and money by preventing a traditional, single-strand hot melt hose from stopping your production line.
