Valco Melton’s hot melt gluing solutions for all types of corrugated case sealing applications.
Our solutions are configurable with thousands of various case sealing packaging machines. We can supply applicator conversion kits, full system kits and OEM conversion kits for all forms of hot melt gluing including spare parts and compatible components from other manufacturers.
Traditional Pneumatic Hot Melt Solutions
Valco Melton offers several options depending on your production needs. Our pneumatic hot melt system solutions are engineered and designed to meet the quality, consistency and economics of traditional packaging applications for nearly any application.
EcoStitch All-Electric Hot Melt Solutions
Valco Melton is best known for our EcoStitch All Electric Hot Melt gluing solutions. The EcoStitch solutions feature the ability to immediately reduce your adhesive consumption by up to 75% while maintaining a quality bonded product. Because of it’s unique design, the EcoStitch solutions have zero dynamic seals and no wear items or replacement parts needed as with traditional pneumatic systems. All EcoStitch systems can be fitted with integrated auto feed systems for adhesive.
Melt ON Demand Hot Melt Solutions
Valco Melton’s KUBE system features Melt On Demand technology. The KUBE is a “first in, first out” melter that is automatically fed with a fully integrated Auto Feed System that keeps the adhesive fresh and eliminates the build-up of char and adhesive degradation as sometimes seen in traditional melters. Our Melt On Demand hot melt system solutions are engineered and designed to meet the quality, consistency and economics of traditional packaging applications for nearly any application.
Case sealing equipment
These solutions feature the MXM electric valve, D series gear pump melters, VD2 EcoStitch drivers and other compatible peripherals such as hoses, nozzles and filters. The EcoStitch solutions are industry standard compatible which allows us to tailor our solution to best fit your production needs. Our applicator conversion kits allow you to use your existing melter but add on EcoStitch hoses/MXM applicators and a driver so you get most of the benefits of EcoStitch without having to replace the entire glue system. If your existing melters are older, we can convert you to an OEM conversion that adds a melter to the gun conversion for an entire solution upgrade. The EcoStitch solution can also utilize the KUBE Melt On Demand melter for a Melt on Demand tank melter along with the benefits of the EcoStitch all electric applicators.
Our KUBE series melters are offered with two pumping options. Piston pump pneumatic and electric gear pump. The KUBE can be mounted in three distinct configurations. Flat Panel, Traditional square mount and Split Remote. The Split Remote mount allows the user to place the heated portion of the system inside the machine making it much safer and removing the potential of burns by having the melter portion enclosed inside the parent machine.
The electrical control system is mounted remotely outside the machine so adjustments or programming can be done by the operator. All of our pneumatic solutions feature industry compatible components such as pumps, filters, hoses, applicators, modules, nozzles and solenoids.
The MS and ME series applicators are identical to industry standard applicators traditionally used in the packaging industry and are easily adaptable to existing mounts and machines.
The MKF mini applicator is a smaller profile applicator that has optional “cool touch” covers are designed to fit into small spaces and be compatible with similar mini applicators used throughout the industry.
