ISO-BAR Glue Machine Features


13/15

ISO-BAR BENEFITS

Wastecreated by the glue machine willbe reduced by up to 1% or more oftotal corrugator production.

Canput up to 40% less moisture intothe sheet, resulting in higher corrugatorspeeds on all grades.

Pin numbers and ECT's will be higher.

Save fiber by using lighter weight liners.

Built-In wash system saves cleanup time.


14/15

ISO-BAR BENEFITS

Caliper on all grades will increase aminimum of 0.002 ~ 0.004 inches.

Warp can be dramatically reduced.

Print quality and plate life are bothimproved due to a smoother,washboard free surface.

Die cutting is improved as a result ofmore consistent caliper.
