ADHESIVE APPLICATORS
ENGINEERED COATING CONTROL FOR DEMANDING PRODUCTION.
Automatic Slot Die Applicators
Slot die technology is a strong choice when coating width, adhesive distribution and clean starts and stops must be controlled. HAR helps select continuous, intermittent, metered or non-contact designs to suit the substrate and end product.
Why this method may be right for you
Consider this technology when your application calls for:
Tape and label manufacturing, including coating onto a liner or tape substrate
Packaging and product assembly requiring controlled strips or precise intermittent coating
Coating, laminating, nonwovens and technical textiles with defined coat weights
What makes this technology different
ITW Dynatec offers distinct slot-die technologies for intermittent cutoff, continuous coating and precision metering. This matters when coating uniformity, product waste and changeover time affect manufacturing economics.
Technology and equipment options
Explore representative solutions. Final equipment selection and specifications should be confirmed for your application.
APEX Slot Die
High-speed intermittent coating with precise cutoff, configurable modules and die-lip design intended to limit buildup and waste.
Equity Continuous Slot Die
Modular continuous coating with adjustable patterns and easy-cut shims for practical width changes and maintenance.
Vector Metered Slot Die
Meters adhesive at the application point for controlled film or ribbon delivery, with continuous or intermittent capability.
CrossCoat Non-Contact
Designed for accurate, streak-free non-contact coating, including applications involving heat-sensitive or irregular substrates.
How HAR helps improve your process
HAR considers whether coating should be applied to the product or liner, whether contact or non-contact deposition is appropriate, and how coat weight, width, speed and adhesive behavior affect finished performance.
We bring adhesive knowledge, application engineering and equipment support together to identify practical improvements in reliability, quality, maintenance and total operating cost.

Replacing, retrofitting or solving an unusual application?
HAR can help source difficult-to-find applicators, evaluate retrofit options and investigate custom configurations. For selected Nordson®-compatible aftermarket applicators, visit our replacement parts section. Compatibility is application- and model-specific; these products are not represented as Nordson-authorized parts.
