SPEEDSTAR COMPACT – NEW HOT-MELT ADHESIVE APPLICATION HEAD MADE BY ROBATECH
Smallest installation dimensions, speed, and high-precision hotmelt adhesive application over the entire service life – this makes Robatech’s new application head a small gem. SpeedStar Compact has all the features that provide added value to the packaging, converting, and graphic industry.
Available since March 2020: The new jetting head SpeedStar Compact. It is one of the fastest and most compact application heads on the market for high-precision hot melt adhesive applications. With up to 800 switching cycles per second, it enables very small bead and dot application for particularly demanding and clean gluing applications at high production speeds. Robatech integrated an automatic stroke adjustment to ensure that the electromechanical jetting head can maintain the precision in adhesive application over the entire service life of approx. 500 million operating cycles. Manual readjustments are no longer necessary, and maintenance-related interruptions are reduced.
Smallest installation dimensions and high protection class
However, SpeedStar Compact has a lot more to offer. Compared to its predecessor SpeedStar Diamond, the new electric head has been technically optimized in terms of hardware and is, therefore, more durable. As the electronic unit is detached from the head, SpeedStar Compact is also 46 mm smaller. With the new design, Robatech considers the limited space available in the industry. Space-saving integration into systems and entire machines becomes possible for the customers. The higher protection class IP55 allows better use in wet areas.
SpeedStar Compact is now available as a single- and multi-head in a short or long version and will be on display at the Robatech booth at upcoming trade fairs.
