Robotic Arm Hot Melt Adhesive Carton Erector

Core Technology: The Golden Combination of Robotic Arm & Hot Melt Adhesive

Featuring an industrial-grade six-axis robotic arm paired with Nordson's high-precision hot melt adhesive system, this solution automates the entire process of "case opening-folding-gluing-sealing". The robotic arm achieves a repeat positioning accuracy of ±0.02mm, flexibly adapting to carton sizes from 200-600mm. The hot melt adhesive spraying precision reaches ±0.05g, enhancing efficiency by 80% and reducing adhesive consumption by 30% compared to traditional manual sealing.

Five Technical Highlights Redefining Case Sealing Standards

1. Robotic Arm Flexible Operation

• Six-axis coordinated motion design enables 360° 死角 - free coverage of sealing stations, compatible with 10+ carton types (e.g., top-bottom cover cases, side-opening cases);

• 50kg load capacity supports high-speed sealing of heavy-duty cartons with a cycle time ≤5s/case.

• Nordson Hot Melt Adhesive System

• ProBlue Flex series hot melt adhesive machine heats up to 220℃ within 10s, with Teflon-coated nozzles extending anti-carbonization life beyond 20,000 hours;

• Intelligent closed-loop temperature control monitors fluctuations within ±1℃, preventing glue opening or leakage caused by temperature deviations.

• Visual Positioning & Adaptive Adjustment

• Equipped with 2D visual sensors to automatically identify carton feeding deviations, with the robotic arm compensating for positioning errors in real time;

• Automatically detects carton height and folding angles, adapting to ±10mm specification fluctuations without manual calibration.

• Safety & Maintenance-Friendly Design

• CE/UL dual-certified, with safety doors featuring dual-loop electromagnetic locks that trigger STO motor shutdown immediately upon abnormal opening;

• Robotic arm joints use maintenance-free bearings, and the hot melt adhesive machine’s quick-release glue tank design reduces daily maintenance to ≤15 minutes/day.

• Digital Production Integration

• Supports OPC UA protocol for seamless MES system integration, real-time uploading of sealing yield, adhesive consumption, and other data;

• 7-inch touchscreen stores 200+ product recipes, enabling one-click parameter calling for model changeovers within <3 minutes.

Scenario-Based Applications: Pain Point Solutions for Multiple Industries

Dual Optimization of Efficiency & Cost

• Productivity Improvement: Daily sealing capacity reaches 12,000 cases, equivalent to 8 workers’ workload, saving 60% labor costs;

• Quality Stability: Glue line uniformity error <5%, case opening defect rate <0.1%, far lower than the 3% failure rate of manual sealing;

• Energy Consumption Control: Hot melt adhesive machine’s intelligent sleep function consumes <50W in standby, saving over 15,000 kWh annually.

Conclusion: From "manual sealing" to "robotic arm precise operation", this equipment reconstructs the packaging process with Industry 4.0 standards, providing enterprises with flexible and digital sealing solutions to facilitate smart manufacturing upgrades.
