ADHESIVE APPLICATORS
PRECISION COVERAGE WITHOUT A CONTINUOUS ADHESIVE FILM.
UFD Fiberized Spray Applicators
Fiberized spray may fit when adhesive must be precisely and evenly distributed across an area without a continuous film. ITW Dynatec UFD technology uses patented laminated-plate nozzles to place fine adhesive fibers in controlled patterns, with precise edge control.
Why this method may be right for you
Consider this technology when your application calls for:
Packaging and product assembly where non-contact adhesive coverage is desirable
Nonwoven, disposable hygiene and filtration-media bonding
Coating and laminating of lightweight, porous or heat-sensitive materials where process trials support fiberized application
What makes this technology different
UFD laminated-plate technology creates precisely placed adhesive fibers rather than a solid film. ITW Dynatec reports up to 50% adhesive savings in applicable comparisons, along with precision edge control; actual savings and bond performance depend on the adhesive, substrate, pattern and production conditions.
Technology and equipment options

How HAR helps improve your process
HAR starts with the bond: coverage, coat weight, edge definition, web speed and adhesive cost. We can compare the current pattern with UFD alternatives, assess bond strength and overspray, and recommend trials before projecting savings.
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.
