Three: a perfect number
Three Robatech innovations that guarantee optimal adhesive application.
Robatech is constantly expanding its offer with new products, latest generation functionalities and additional optionals. One such new addition is EasyFix, an innovative support for heated hoses and cables that offers the advantage of an extended service life. Another is represented by the Intelligent Level Sensor (ILS), a function that enables visually displaying level during filling, so that the right quantity of glue is guaranteed.
Finally, there is RobaFeed 3, the new automatic loader for adhesives in granulates that guarantees greater safety and a consistently accurate tank fill level.
EasyFix hose mount system
EasyFix: simple and optimized for heated hose and cable mounting
Robatech’s professional heated hose mount for adhesive application, the EasyFix system, is one of the most compact tube support systems currently available on the market. The heated hose, cable and tubes are guided together, kept away from the floor. This also protects them from being squeezed or bent.
RobaFeed 3: safe and efficient
Flexible application. The EasyFix ideally adapts to your requirements, is suitable for practically any application and environment, and is quick to retrofit. Protection against overheating for bundled hoses minimizes the risk of adhesive carbonization and nozzle clogging. The EasyFix insert ensures optimal control of the constant hose temperature as well as high-quality adhesive application. Available in two different sizes, the EasyFix guarantees an extended service life as well as operator safety.
RobaFeed 3: the new generation of automatic filling systems for optimized safety and efficiency
The demands on automatic melter filling increase continuously. The focus is on efficiency, safety, and functionality. With the fully integrated, automatic RobaFeed 3 filling system, Robatech offers the ideal solution for safe and reliable filling of melting tanks with adhesive in granular form. It draws the exact amount of adhesive needed and also monitors the adhesive level within the tank.
Increased operational safety. The advantages of the RobaFeed 3: A significantly reduced risk of burns and improved shielding against harmful fumes ensure more safety for the operator. An optional tank lid lock prevents unauthorized access to the melted adhesive. With this self-monitoring system, classic operator errors, such as overfilling of the tank, are avoided. Production downtimes due to empty melting tanks are omitted as well. Continuous filling ensures a constant amount of adhesive. Gentle, needs-based adhesives preparation also reduces the risk of burns in the tank as well as nozzle clogging. With less effort required for filling and increased process reliability, the RobaFeed 3 ensures continuous production, saves on adhesive, and even reduces the energy needed for operation.
ILS Intelligent Level Sensor: precise, simple, economical
Intelligent sensors have long played a key role in the realization of Industry 4.0 concepts.
With the ILS, Robatech has developed a solution for real-time fill level visualization. The new sensor can be installed in the entire Concept series, not only monitoring the fill level, but also preventing the adhesive tank from running empty with its unique run empty protection. The adhesive level is continually adapted to the process. The adhesive type is automatically detected, preventing production errors thanks to a warning in the event of an excessive deviation from the reference adhesive.
ILS for viewing fill level in real time
High precision and efficiency. The display unit is an efficient solution for many individual applications, meeting all precision requirements. Analyses also help streamline processes. This increase in adhesive application efficiency cuts costs while optimizing processes.
