Kaymich’s side seam systems are suitable for installation on most cigarette makers.
They are designed to apply PVA, fed by either gravity or pump, and are available with an optional manual or automatic retracting stand. The design gives an accurate application of adhesive and with no stoppages for cleaning purposes this is a low maintenance and cost efficient way to apply adhesive.
This product is designed to apply adhesive over a wide area to anchor the tow to the paper.
This system applies adhesive in a swirl pattern via a non-contact spray valve, reducing the bleed-through contamination often experienced when using highly porous paper. The result is a considerably improved adhesion, sometimes up to 5 times more secure, with no change in paper porosity. This application system also improves cleanliness and decreases stoppage for cleaning purposes.
Kaymich spray valves are used within cigarette packing where they are designed to apply PVA to board.
The atomisation of the adhesive effectively removes up to 25% of the water content from the glue, which results in the adhesive applied being very tacky and enabling a fast and effective bond. The unique design of Kaymich’s valves, with its self-cleaning feature, eliminates the problems of alternative suppliers’ products and ensures clean, repeatable and accurate adhesive application.
The Kaymich system is engineered to the highest standards enabling the user to increase productivity, improve quality and reduce costs. It uses up to 40% less hot melt compared to a pump fed system when running porous paper, eliminates bleed-through which reduces downtime for cleaning and increases production speed, and is a low maintenance system with no pumps to maintain or moving parts in operation.
The Kaymich Bulk Melt System is designed for batch melting or heating a whole range of products. With a large 100 litre tank, the Bulk Melt system can quickly melt menthol or other aromas in preparation for later use in the production process. It is often used as a secondary melting system to service online flavour application systems.
