Sooner or later, every hot melt application process must deal with unwanted issues. While manufacturers often troubleshoot difficulties on their own, it’s useful to know whether the problem is avoidable—and to learn about the fixes you can try.
This post will list a few of the common problems with hot melt drum unloaders and how to […]
This case study shows how a large flooring manufacturer took advantage of a Uniflow Model 4230 to extend its roll-coating operations to a sister plant.
THE UNIFLOW ADVANTAGE
Companies prefer Uniflow drum unloaders for many reasons. Our machines are reliable, cost-effective, and pump viscous hot melts, such as PUR, significantly faster than competing units.
Benefits of using a […]
It can be surprising to realize how much adhesive a hot melt drum melter leaves behind after it’s done pumping. This waste doesn’t bother some manufacturers, but for others, it noticeably cuts into profits (especially with the rising cost of materials).
The good news is, it doesn’t have to be this way because, with a Uniflow […]
People sometimes chance upon Uniflow. Perhaps they found us after a competing machine couldn’t pump fast enough for the job. Or they had another manufacturer vouch for the reliability of our hot melt drum melters. No matter how a business learns about our unloaders, they almost immediately realize it’s worth switching.
Here are five of the […]
This case study describes how a Uniflow Model 4230 helped Cascade Windows improve the efficiency of their hot melt butyl application.
HOT MELT DRUM UNLOADER EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURING
Uniflow drum unloaders pump high viscosity hot melts at higher rates than competing machines – a lot faster. This is achieved with a unique platen that has nearly double the […]
Skepticism is important when you’re buying new equipment for your business. You’re spending someone else’s money and your reputation is at stake. It’s going to reflect badly on you if the equipment doesn’t work the way you expected.

Holt melt adhesives are increasingly important in modern manufacturing. They’re used in industries from textiles and furniture to food and beverage packaging, and many users are switching from solvent-based adhesives to hot melts.
What’s behind this growth? Industry experts note that hot melts are easier to use than two-part epoxies and hold and set times can […]
Here are a few examples of how spending on the right drum unloader will save your company money.
CUT MATERIAL WASTE BY 10X
A Uniflow leaves 2 lbs (or less) of material in each drum, whereas all competing machines waste 25 to 40 lbs of material.
