[CASE STUDY] – HOW A FLOORING MANUFACTURER ENSURED PRODUCTION WITH UNIFLOW

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 […]

Estimating the Cost of a Hot Melt Drum Unloader

Hot melt drum unloaders are used to heat high-viscosity polymers and pump them into a customer’s manufacturing process.

Some of the hot melt materials that are typically processed include:

Pressure Sensitive Adhesives (PSA)
Polyurethane Reactive Adhesives (PUR)
Butyl
Cable Sealants
Among many others

Manufacturing processes that use hot melt drum unloaders include roll coating, cable manufacturing, spray […]

[Case Study] – Hot Melt Drum Unloader Project for the Tape Industry

Worthen had recently installed two new hot melt drum unloaders built by a competitor, each of which was expected to pump 600 lbs of pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) per hour, but only ended up pumping 325-350 lbs per hour. That’s when UNIflow stepped in.
