Baby & Infant Diaper – Adhesive Application Solutions

The diaper market demands that manufacturers constantly upgrade their products, improving features and functionality, while also lowering cost. With ITW Dynatec’s proven technologies, diaper manufacturers don’t have to worry about keeping up with competitors. They set the pace.

ITW Dynatec’s patented industry leading technologies like the Omega™ SCS strand coating system have changed the industry and enabled up to 50% reductions in adhesive use for leg and cuff elastic applications. With our high-speed APEX™ slot die heads and HS Series Omega™ and Random Fiber applicators, no application is too challenging.

Higher line speeds and lower weight substrates and other raw materials have created the need for improved machine and cross-web adhesive metering accuracy. Applications such as chassis construction, backsheet lamination, core lamination, elastic stretch panels and hook and tabs require precision accuracy of the adhesive application with excellent intermittent capability that provides efficient operation. ITW Dynatec listened, and we created a patented solution: the Vector™ Platform.
