GD 500 Adhesive Volume Sensor Technical Data Sheet

The GD 500 sensor monitors the volume of liquid adhesive being applied in corrugated applications such as side-seam wheel-pot or extrusion gluing. The system consists of a digital controller, one or two dielectric sensors, a photocell, bracketing and cables, and is used in conjunction with the LogiComm® system as part of a total application and quality monitoring system.

Key Featuresn Easy-to-use LCD display and keypad-user interface, available in multiple languages, simplifies

setup and changeovers.n Dynamic calibration process automatically learns the desired adhesive profile over a

user-specified number of products.n Adjustable thresholds for too much glue (squeeze-out) or too little glue (weak bond).

n The LogiComm system displays, tracks and ejects or marks defective products.
