Nordson Corporation Releases High-speed Liquid Adhesive Pneumatic Applicators

Duluth, Georgia, USA -- Nordson Corporation (Nasdaq: NDSN) has just released two new fast-cycling, high-speed liquid adhesive pneumatic guns designed to improve production efficiency and product quality with bead or slot pattern application. The LA 725 and LA 725-S applicators provide clean operation and a robust design for continuous or intermittent operation in a variety of paper and paperboard applications including corrugated box, bag & sack and packaging.

The patented LA 725 applicators use advanced seal technology resistant to most chemicals in water-based adhesives, so they last longer and require less maintenance. Frictionless operation further extends service life. Quick-change components minimize downtime and facilitate fast production changeovers.

The LA 725 series applicators use new, high-speed solenoid technology to improve speed and achieve faster cycle times, especially beneficial to stitching and dotting patterns. These solenoids deliver consistent adhesive dispensing over the life of the valve.

Fast-cycle times and snuff-back technology deliver sharp, clean cutoff as excess adhesive is pulled back into the applicator. Even at high speeds, LA 725 applicators provide reliable, uniform patterns for consistent appearance and performance. Dispensing consistency means optimizing adhesive use and reducing waste.
