Dispensing innovation


Sulzer’s advanced dispensing systems on show at JEC World 2020

Sulzer will be showcasing its evolving portfolio of MIXPAC™ dispensers and cartridges for composite adhesives and sealants at JEC World 2020. The products on display show the company’s continuous commitment to offer key solutions that address current and future customer needs in a variety of sectors, such as automotive, renewable energy, aerospace and construction.

JEC World, the global trade show dedicated to composite materials, is expected to host its most significant event in 2020. Industry leaders and decision makers will meet to discuss the latest trends such as reducing environmental impact across the entire value chain and developing advanced designs to address increasingly demanding applications.

At Booth E84, Hall 6, Sulzer, the world’s leading manufacturer of systems for packaging, mixing and dispensing single and multi-component bonding and sealing materials, will present its latest solutions to address these challenges.

Less plastic waste with eco-packaging option

Something of interest for anyone concerned about the sustainability of adhesive packaging and dispensing systems will be MIXPAC™ ecopaCC™ collapsible cartridges from Sulzer. This solution for 2-component adhesives and sealants greatly reduces waste, thanks to its innovative design. In effect, ecopaCC™ cartridges compress and reduce their size as the two adhesive components are dispensed. As a result, it is possible to reduce adhesive packaging waste volume up to 82% as well as associated disposal costs depending on cartridge volume.

Precision pneumatic dispensing

Also, on show is Sulzer’s latest generation of highly accurate DP2X pneumatic 2-component dispensers. The DP2X is built around strong but lightweight aluminum frames and is designed for performance and reliability. The product provides great flexibility as it is compatible with the latest MIXPAC™ cartridge systems.

The handling balance of this unit has been carefully designed. Additionally, it is up to 35% lighter than comparable solutions. This allows users to comfortably perform challenging and precise applications for longer periods.

Battery power offers best of both worlds

Sulzer will display two newly released cordless 18V battery-powered dispensers that help end users extrude accurate amounts of adhesives and sealants, reducing waste while improving operational efficiency. The COX™ ElectraFlow™ Dual Ultra 600 1:1 and ElectraFlow™ Plus units are ideal for operators using high volumes of sealant or two-component epoxy products. These innovations have already been launched in North America and are now being presented to the global and European markets for the first time during JEC world.

Sulzer’s experts will be on hand throughout the event to discuss the different dispensing systems and how they can support specific needs and requirements within the composites sector.

Visit Sulzer at JEC World in Hall 6, Booth E84 at Paris-Nord Villepinte Exhibition Centre, Paris, France, from 3rd – 5th March 2020.
