Application Description

Rotary fold bonding is characterised by very high speeds, different paper qualities and newly printed inks. Adhesives for this application have to fulfil highest quality demands. Jowat dispersions have been used successfully in fold bonding for many years and are perfectly optimised for the challenges of this application. They are continuously improved in close cooperation with processors and are suitable for all standard application systems and diverse paper types. The adhesives are characterised by fast drying and optimum cut-off at the nozzle, even at high line speeds.

Very high speeds, different papers, newly printed inks and adhesives of superior quality. Those are the daily requirements in rotary printing and for rotary fold bonding.
Jowat looks back on many years of experience with adhesives for all standard and established fold bonding systems. We know what the challenges are:

  • fast drying: due to an optimum ratio of solids to water content
  • good cleaning properties: in general, with water; stubborn residues can be removed with one of our cleaners
  • no build-up at the nozzle: adapted rheological properties, suitable for the typical pressure and application amounts of the folding system
  • adhesives adapted to the processed: paper qualities depending on the product, the paper may be changed without needing to change the glue
  • characteristics during downtimes / idle times: no skin formation due to special membrane lids to prevent loss of moisture and skin formation
  • cross bonding or longitudinal bonding: the products have different viscosities, depending on the application system
  • amount of ink: whether a thick layer of ink or pure paper white
  • good adhesion is essential, our products are optimised for these demands

Our products have all been developed in close cooperation with rotary printers for all standard application systems.
