Many book and magazine factories purchase hot melt adhesive granules based on “feeling”, resulting in either material shortage, production stoppage, or stockpiling and occupying warehouses. In fact, the dosage can be calculated very accurately: the glue consumption per book ≈ the spine coating area x the glue layer thickness x the glue density. Taking an A5 book with a spine width of 2cm, a coating height of 2cm, and a glue thickness of 0.3mm as an example, a single book weighs about 0.12 grams, and 10000 books weigh 1.2 kilograms.
| Steps | method |
|---|---|
| 1. Test single book | The difference in weight between the empty spine of the book and the adhesive coating results in adhesive consumption per book |
| 2. Categorize by category | Record separately by paper type and thickness, and establish a glue consumption ledger |
| 3. Batch production | Single book glue consumption x planned number of volumes x 1.05 loss coefficient |
| 4. Customized procurement | Based on inventory and delivery time, determine the quantity for each purchase |
Q: How much does one Sunlife hot melt adhesive weigh?
Answer: The standard weight is 25kg per pack. Based on the consumption of glue per book, the starting point is about half a pack of 10000 A5 books, depending on the paper type.
Question: Does overflow glue count as loss?
Answer: Calculate. Excessive glue overflow indicates incorrect coating parameters or glue type, and adjusting the machine is more cost-effective than buying more glue.
Q: How to estimate small batch trial orders?
Answer: First, use the machine scale difference method to measure dozens of books and take the average, then enlarge it, and the error is very small.
Guangzhou Sunlife Trading can help calculate the recommended purchase quantity of Sunlife hot melt adhesive according to your book type to avoid material breakage or warehouse pressure.
EVA hot melt adhesive is currently one of the widely used industrial adhesives. They are essentially thermoplastic based on polymers, which means they are solid at room temperature but liquefy when exposed to a heat source. In this article, you will learn more about hot melt adhesive: EVA hot melt adhesive. What issues should be […]
For EVA hot melt adhesive used for binding, it can be divided into high-speed adhesive and low-speed adhesive according to different curing times. The curing speed of high-speed adhesive is slightly faster, while the curing speed of low-speed adhesive is slightly slower. According to the material of the book, it is divided into laminated paper […]
Using hot melt adhesive particles on the same material surface will provide better quality assurance, as hot melt adhesive is always sprayed on the material surface in a molten state – this helps to generate thermal reactions and increases adhesion compared to adhesives, without using heat during the bonding process. Stable quality provides good adhesion […]
What are the characteristics of pearl cotton hot melt adhesive? Pearl cotton, also known as EPE, is a foamed polyethylene polymer. Pearl cotton has many advantages such as water and moisture resistance, shock resistance, sound insulation, thermal insulation, good plasticity, strong toughness, recycling, environmental protection, strong impact resistance, and good chemical resistance. Pearl cotton packaging […]
