EX Extruder Systems
Description
A Nordson extruder is the first choice when processing “difficult” adhesives like polyamides, polyester, or
polyolefin (APAO). These adhesives ask for a closed system to avoid degradation of the adhesive through
carbonization and consequently loss of bonding performance or other problems within the system.
Extruders enable homogeneous melting in a fully closed “melt-on-demand” system to provide a safe and reliable
application process.
Nordson extruders offer the fastest, easiest adhesive changes possible compared to other melters without time- and
cost-intensive cleaning procedures.
Convincing advantages at a glance:
• Optimized for adhesive applications
• A true “melt-on-demand” system, deliver the lowest possible
thermal stress on the adhesive
• No degrading or charring at all because it is a fully closed
system
• A self-cleaning system
• Virtually maintenance free system
• Option to change adhesives during production within a few
minutes
• Short heat-up times
• Lower energy consumption per kilogram compared to
conventional tank melters
• Results in more economical operating costs of the complete
application system
