Upgrade Application

Upgrade Description

The Infusion Curved Hot Plate is designed to be easily installed in a variety of locations on the corrugator:

• Over the Glue Unit to Precondition the fluted side of the singleface web.
• Under (or before or after) the glue unit heat the doubleface liner.
• Bridge or floor mounted to precondition medium or preheat the liner prior to the singlefacer.
