Focke Meler Gluing Solutions S.A.

Based on a long design experience, MELER developed and launched the innovative product whose highlight is an energy saving of 60% compared to other hot melt tank units in the market. Both, a perfect melting and pumping efficiency are the main features of these melting units.

The Micron Series has achieved a big advance in the careful heating of hot melt. Thanks to a totally equal temperature distribution over the entire surface of the tank ground, no spot of overheating occurs that would lead to premature charring of the adhesive. With the design of the assembly Tank/Pump/Pneumatic unit a very even and precisely controlled  glue-pressure is achieved.

Micron’s outstanding design gives a premium status to installation where this device is integrated. The handling is simple and intuitive, perfect to help any operator in their day to day, which translates into significant handling cost savings. The simplicity of maintenance is one of the strengths of these units. A simple twist of screws gives you a quick and effortlessly access to the interior of the unit. The totally opening tank lid simplifies the loading and the cleaning of the hot melt tank.

The user safety is a top priority in the design of the MICRON. The housings are entirely “cool touch” technology, a depressurizing valve release any glue pressure in case of a system alarm equipment shutdown.

The MICRON series is available in the tank size of 5,10,20 y 35 liters.

The Meler Micron MOD series is specially designed to preserve the adhesive in medium-low consumption applications. The main feature of this series is the “Melt on Demand” system that melts the adhesive only when it is needed, thus eliminating charring problems and significantly reducing power consumption.

Through careful treatment of the adhesive, the quality of the product is higher because the adhesion is better. As such, we are able to ensure that production does not stop due to the nozzles becoming clogged and the need for periodic cleaning is also reduced, which leads to savings in maintenance, time and costs.

Micron MOD was developed using Micron Technology and therefore incorporates its many advantages:

• Energy efficiency
• Melting efficiency
• Simple and intuitive control panel
• Easy access to the interior of the equipment
• Quick and easy to clean
• Smart Standby function: reduces the temperature of the equipment when the system is not in operation

The equipment therefore always keeps the exterior casing cool and features an automatic depressurisation valve in the event of an alarm or when the equipment is turned off.

Thanks to their innovative Micron MOD design, they can be integrated in any installation. This range is ideal for applications in markets such as packaging and labelling, graphic arts and assembly

Meler has the widest range of gear melters on the market in order to adapt to numerous industrial processes. All of the equipment is based on "Micron Technology" and shares one common goal, reducing electrical energy consumption to a minimum.

Micron hotmelt equipment is configurable for one or two single or dual gear pumps, with different flow rates and tanks measuring 5, 10, 20 and 35 litres.

Continuous adhesive flow

The high melting rate significantly increases the performance of the melters and the pumping rate ensures a continuous adhesive flow.

The loss of adhesive load in the pump is insignificant, as the channels are large and straight. This makes cleaning easier, facilitates working with high viscosity adhesives and reduces wear on the motor-pump assembly.

Safe, simple equipment

At Meler, we know how difficult it is for workers to operate the infinite number of machines on the market. We are therefore keen to make their job easier by designing equipment that is very simple to use, with all models in the range working in the same way. This then leads to savings in operating costs, maintenance and energy. 

All of our products are designed to ensure maximum safety for the worker, which is why the casings always remain cool. They also have a by-pass valve that limits the maximum pressure in the system, particularly during continuous pumping with the application guns closed.

Advantages of Micron Technology

Equipment made using Micron Technology is specially designed to use as little power as possible. We are very aware of the need to look after the environment and are strong supporters of sustainable economic development.
