The heart of the hotmelt flat lamination process is the adhesive. The quality, temperature and viscosity of the adhesive are important factors in the coating process and are constantly controlled and monitored by the Maan ‘Melt on demand’ system. The unique feature of the Maan Drum Melter? A heated melting plate melts only the top layer of the adhesive. From above. And from here, the adhesive is pumped to the Tank Melter via heated hoses. This saves a huge amount of energy, as the entire vessel does not have to be heated. The Tank Melter is the storage vessel for molten adhesives. Here it is well heated and kept at temperature. The coating level in the tank is continuously monitored and refilled when necessary. At the end of the day, you can empty the buffer tank. So you don't have to reheat the entire stock the next day. Clever, isn't it? #hotmelt #flatlamination #adhesive #drummelter #coatings #coatingequipment

It is common for our customers to switch from ‘cold glue’ to a hot-melt coating application. Not surprisingly, because PUR hot-melt has some distinct advantages, compared to cold glue. For example: - Fast curing. A hot-melt has a much shorter ‘open time’, allowing panels to be processed much faster. This drastically reduces production time and makes it easy to increase your capacity. - Hotmelt provides an extremely strong and durable bond. That makes it suitable for demanding applications - Most hot-melt adhesives do not contain solvents. As a result, no Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are released. A lot more environmentally friendly and healthier! - PUR Hot-melts can be applied to a wide range of materials: Wood, metal, plastic, textile, cardboard... etc. This makes hot-melt coating enormously versatile. - A hot-melt compound is highly resistant to temperature changes or moisture. So it can easily withstand extreme conditions. Curious and want to know more about PUR Hot-melt coating? Our Wijnand H. Florijn is an expert in this field. Feel free to ask him your question!

Sustainability trends and developments in the #labelmarket. The market is on the move. And so it should be. Whether intrinsically driven or not, we all feel that incentive to produce more sustainably. Looking at the label market, we see that there are numerous developments going on. With one goal; to make our products and processes more sustainable. What these trends and development are? We list a few: 1. Recyclable materials: a theme that applies to both label and liner; 2. Bio-based and bio-degradable materials; 3. Printing techniques that require less water consumption and emit less volatile organic compounds (VOCs); 4. Energy-efficient equipment; 5. Sustainable adhesives, such as water-based adhesives or adhesives that can be easily removed; 6. Packaging optimisation: smaller, lighter and more efficient labels; Would you like to investigate which choices are interesting for your organization? We would be happy to provide you with technical advice! Feel free to contact our coating specialists Raymond ten Hove, Roel de Ruiter or visit our website: https://lnkd.in/gRcPW6m

Working at Maan Engineering means making a significant contribution to the quality of various finished products. #Labels in this case. And various types of #panels and crops #horti. We do this by providing our customers with the very best (coating) equipment. Maan Engineering does this on the basis of a standard product range. A solid, proven basis, which is then customer-specifically engineered and assembled. The machines that leave the company meet the strictest quality requirements. And that is a true team effort! A team, of which you can be a part of, if you like! Because there are a few spots available! #Software Engineer, #Sales Support. Want to know more? Take a look at our vacancies page (in Dutch). https://lnkd.in/d_ejiCP

It almost looks like our Gerran Klingenberg is stretching his calf muscles a bit against the hot melt coating station (he is, after all, avid mountain biker!). But nothing could be further from the truth. Guess what he is doing? He rotates the coating station. 180 degrees. So that linerless labels can be produced (in this position) alongside regular laminate. A unique feature of our Hybrid Coating Line. Have we piqued your curiosity? You can read more about it on our website: https://lnkd.in/gnVMfAT

𝐀 𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐞𝐥 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐞𝐫-𝐟𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐞! 📣 Sustainability is a key focus for Maan Engineering and a topic we cannot ignore as a market. Where does your focus lie when it comes to making your Label product and production process more sustainable? Of course, we see other possibilities (that did not fit in this poll). Think: liner recycling programs, using as little adhesive & release coating as possible, renewable energy and efficient use of energy, or certification: FSC label, ISO standards, etc. We are especially curious to know what you focus on! Share your opinion and post it in the comments! 👇 👇 Interested in what Maan Engineering can do for you? Send a DM to Raymond ten Hove

No matter how advanced your equipment is, the processing of the adhesive (for example, in terms of temperature and viscosity) largely determines the quality of your adhesive layer. And you control those parameters to perfection, with the Maan Engineering melting equipment, which ensure that the adhesive supply, is consistent, stable and controlled. And as efficiently and sustainably as possible, because we melt the adhesive from the top. Curious? Read more about it on our website: https://lnkd.in/eQnB4Vf4
