Polyurethane Adhesive Applicator

Polyurethane Adhesive Applicator

A mechanised Polyurethane Adhesive Applicator.

The off-line preparation of the rear window glass of the Ford Falcon saloon, wagon and utility required that the weather seal is firmly set on the mating edge of the glass which fits against the bodywork of the vehicle.

The machine grips one end of the weather seal and lays it flat in a cradle where it is firmly held. As this is being done an EFD 740V-SS dispense valve applies a line of the polyurethane adhesive of precisely the right profile in the trench of the weather seal.

The machine then presents the weather seal to the operator who then fits it to the glass and the cycle repeats.
