The sheet cementers have a large glue tank which serves as the adhesive reservoir. A tank roller dips into the adhesive and transfers it to the coating roller. The gap between these rolls is adjustable and precisely controls the amount of adhesive that is carried up on the coating roller.
Sheet cementing machines are available with several different feed roller arrangements for application of adhesive to parts from paper thickness to 4" thick, and are available in coating roller widths from 18-45".
These machines can apply almost any type of water-based adhesive- including latex cement. They are equipped with a low speed pickup roller which minimizes adhesive foaming. These cementing machines have stainless steel adhesive tanks, coating rollers and feed rollers and are designed for quick cleanup. The glue tank slides out of the machine and is covered to keep the adhesive from drying up. A wash tank then is slid into the machine and the rolls are cleaned with water. Cleanup can be done in about five minutes.
These cementing machines are most commonly used to apply adhesive to printed sheets for the creation of attractive packaging as well as point of purchase display materials. They can also be used for poster and print mounting, photo mounting, and for glue application to materials such as chipboard, corrugated, plastics, foam, rubber and fabrics.
