Nordson Reconfigures Adhesive Sensor for Corrugated

Published: March 06, 2014

DULUTH, GA | Nordson Corp. has re-released the GD 500 adhesive volume sensor to monitor glue volume in corrugated applications. The new version uses a pair of sensors to assess accurately the volume of liquid adhesive dispensed onto a corrugated board.

The sensor features what is said to be an easy-to-use LCD display and keypad interface to simplify setup and changeovers. A dynamic calibration process automatically learns the desired adhesive profile. Adjustable thresholds for either too much or too little glue can be defined.

Sensors can be incorporated into company’s corrugated glue station as part of a comprehensive adhesive dispensing and detection system. In conjunction with a LogiComm system, the new sensors reportedly offer a total application and quality monitoring solution.
