KAS - gluing and quality control

Systems

TOPGUARD

System TOPGUARD is the top-of-the-line quality assurance system that can be equipped with barcode check (BCC), glue disk check (GDC), glue jet application (GJA) and glue jet check (GJC), position detecting check (PDC), tracking and ejecting (TAE), and many other helpful functions.

MATRIX

System MATRIX is the answer when complex gluing must meet the new industry 4.0 standard and it is the best choice to link between CAD and gluing. The Matrix Pattern Generator (MPG), a Microsoft Windows based software, is a mideiator which inputs CAD data and outputs it into ready made gluing.

CORRUGATED

System CORRUGATED reflects the special need in corrugated cardboard production. It is a quality assurance system combined with MATRIX glue application and it handles multiple glue heads and multiple glue check for top-down glue application or bottom-up glue application on the left or right machine side.

COMPACT

System COPMACT is the working horse in glue application. It handles intelligent glue application from 1 up to 16 glue guns paired with easiest programming and operating. It rightly shapes the slogan ''the easy was to glue''.

Modules

BCC

Bar Code Check - a must-have quality assurance module of system TOPGUARD which safely prevents from wrong cartons mixed into production. In pharmaceutical production it is already a standard since years and more and more it becomes a standard in overall carton production.

GDC

Glue Disk Check - a must-have quality assurance product of system TOPGUARD which guarantees perfect glue on glue disk's straightline glue application. It detects not only too little glue for example because of empty glue pot it also detects too much glue which leads to scrap production because of leaking glue out of the carton.

GJC

Glue Jet Check - a must-have quality assurance product of system TOPGUARD which ensures not only the right glue at the right position it also ensures that there is no glue in areas where glue is forbidden. Even single glue dots (like on small flaps), which often cause difficulties during application, are safely monitored with GJC.

TAE

Tracking And Ejecting - Flipper ejector - the best choice for ejecting faulty cartons in TOPGUARD's quality assurance systems when the machine has no built-in ejector. This standalone flipper ejector is positioned between the transfer station and the press of any standard folder-gluer machine.

TAE

Tracking And Ejecting - Linear ejector - the second best choice for ejecting faulty cartons in TOPGUARD's quality assurance systems when the machine has no built-in ejector. The linear ejector can be mounted in the transfer station of folder-gluer machines. The ejecting process is very smooth because it is lineary ejected.

TAE

Tracking And Ejecting - Rotary ejector - the third best choice for ejecting faulty cartons in TOPGUARD's quality assurance systems when the machine has no built-in ejector. The rotary ejector can be mounted in the transfer station of folder-gluer machines. While ejecting the rotary ejector ejects the carton by catapulting the faulty cartons on a circular path.

GJA

Glue Jet Application - is the TOPGUARD module for handling glue application. It impresses with easy and clear glue programming also of complex applications. Realistic depiction of glue line geometry guarantees capturing the glue image at a glance.

GDM

Gluing Dot Matrix - is the versatile TOPGUARD module for handling complex glue application when using MATRIX glue application heads. Macro programming makes creating complex glue geometries extremely easy.

CORR

Corrugated - is the best choice when TOPGUARD is used in corrugated cardboard production. Special functionalities optimize the production process using module Corrugated. Pre-defined glue models for the glue seam allow the optimal choice between glue saving and bonding power.

Glue guns

PLK25

PLK25 - the glue gun series PLK25 is a high speed, high viscosity, fully electrical glue gun for dot and line application. It scores with an optimized and excellent pulse characteristic which guarantees highest long-working cleanliness and precision.

DLK22

DLK22 - the glue gun series DLK22 is a fast, robust and reliable fully electrical glue application gun sutiable for glue dot application and glue line application as well. In the past it became the de-facto standard in over-all glue application.

DLK15

DLK15 - the glue gun series DLK15 is a fully electrical glue application gun which is optimized for very small glue dot application. While keeping the excellent features of it's parent gun DLK22. It is suitable for high speed dot application up to 1000 per second.

VPower

VPower - the glue gun series VPower is a fully electrical glue gun for hot melted glue. It is suitable for dot application and line application at temperatures up to 200°C. Compared with traditional pneumatic hotmelt glue guns the VPower glue gun scores with high reliability and saving glue costs.

Glue Supply Units

GSU-H 5..40 bar

GSU-H - the Glue Supply Unit GSU-H delivers a precise regulated glue pressure of 5..40 bar. A pneumatic working piston pump works in combination with a pneumatic working pressure regulator removing pump pulsations and delivering filtered glue with 100 micrometer mesh.

GSU-M 3..25 bar

GSU-M - the Glue Supply Unit GSU-M delivers a precise regulated glue pressure of 3..25 bar. A pneumatic working piston pump works in combination with a pneumatic working pressure regulator removing pump pulsations and delivering filtered glue with 100 micrometer mesh.

GSU-L 1..10 bar

GSU-L - the Glue Supply Unit GSU-L delivers a precise regulated glue pressure of 1..10 bar. A pneumatic working piston pump works in combination with a pneumatic working pressure regulator removing pump pulsations and delivering filtered glue with 100 micrometer mesh.

Hotmelt application

Melting units

Melting units - are available with melting capacities of 5 up to 86 litres, and are usable to process different types of hot melted glue for example EVA glue, PO glue, PA glue, PUR glue and PSA glue. The melters can be equipped with a electrical gear pump or pneumatic piston pump according to customers needs.

Hoses

Hoses - for transporting melted glue from melter to application head heated hoses are available in different lenghts up to 10 meters. According to customers' need the temperature sensor can be PT100, FeCuNi, Ni120 and NTC. The maximum working temperature ranges up to 210°C.

Application heads

Application heads - are available for dot application, line application, stripe application and spray application. For applying hotmelt in dot or line form, fully electrical guns are available. The maximum working temperatures ranges up to 210°C.

Adhesives

Adhesives - for hotmelt application are available in form of pillows, pearls or blocks. Refering their chemical basis, available types are EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate), PO (polyolefins), PUR (polyurethanes), PA (polyamides) or PSA (pressure-sensitive adhesives).
