  • Patent number: 8167516
    Abstract: Palletized materials are delivered in controlled quantity into a pulse modulated air stream. A vortex of compressed air gates the pellets into flexible small diameter tubing for transit to a hot melt adhesive application apparatus. Pellets of different materials, sizes, and shapes can be combined in a defined ratio within several seconds of melting at the application point. Pellet delivery air can be utilized for spray application of the melted material.

  • Publication number: 20110142552
    Abstract: Palletized materials are delivered in controlled quantity into a pulse modulated air stream. A vortex of compressed air gates the pellets into flexible small diameter tubing for transit to a hot melt adhesive application apparatus. Pellets of different materials, sizes, and shapes can be combined in a defined ratio within several seconds of melting at the application point. Pellet delivery air can be utilized for spray application of the melted material.

  • Patent number: 7755009
    Abstract: Multiple solid materials are introduced to a mixing vessel in defined proportion. They are melted by an electromagnetic induction heated susceptor and mixed simultaneously by the shearing action at the melt face of a second rotating susceptor. Material compounding takes place at the application site. Varying the physical structure of the susceptor or multiple susceptors processes materials of differing initial melt viscosity and particle size. Non-melting particulate material can be included in the mix. Reactive components can be combined at the application site.
