Robatech Concept Stream thermoplastic adhesives melter

Robatech’s Concept Stream is a tankless solution for the melting and delivery of thermoplastic adhesives in granular form. Suitable for high or low adhesive consumption, the melter is energy efficient and safe.

At the heart of the solution is a small tank designed for high melting performance (8 kg/h). Melting performance and quantity can be matched to consumption using melt-on-demand technology. Due to the controlled adhesive flow, fewer burns occur in the system, residues in the tank are reduced and nozzle blockage is mostly prevented.

The short heat-up time of 16 min to 160°C and the standby function ensure fast system availability. Fill level supervision with run-empty protection stops the system, preventing losses due to poor application or missing glue. The system is energy optimised, with CoolTouch insulation on tank, pump and adhesive distributor providing more than 20% in energy savings compared to the standard product.

The basic version of the melter is filled manually and the filling area is separated from the hot area using the CoolTouch adapter. To increase operator safety, the melter can be configured or retrofitted for automatic filling with the RobaFeed granulate feeder. The automatic pressure release prevents the build-up of dangerous overpressure in the system and thus supports safe operation.

With a modular design comprising up to eight connections for heating hoses and application heads and a user-friendly operating panel, the melter supports fast system integration and a flexible gluing process.
