Vacuum Conveyor for Hot Melt Glue Chips

The Vacuum Conveyor for Hot Melt Glue Chips automatically draws the pellets from a storage container or carton at a predetermined controlled rate, (utilizing a vacuum powered source) and delivers them directly to the melt tank of each adhesive applicator, or to a central hopper serving multiple applicators. Choose between a Venturi Powered Air Unit Model and a Electric Blower Driven Unit Model.

Description

To eliminate manual pellet handling, Vac-U-Max has developed a line of vacuum conveyors both air and electric operated which provide continuous direct transfer of the pellets to the point of use. The conveying method eliminates adhesive spillage and waste, banishes empty pellet packaging from the production area, and creates a safer environment. It allows users to benefit from the cost effectiveness and strategic advantages related to storage and handling. Optional stand for mounting conveyor available – call for more information 763-777-9525
