Affix business and promotional
items to continuous forms with the Tamarack Card Applicator.
The card applicator offers versatility and productivity in the value-added
affixing market.
The Tamarack Card Applicator is an off-line pack-to-pack machine.
The carrier web enters the cold glue applicator and receives a dot
pattern of glue. Cards and other items are then affixed to the moving
web at speeds up to 300 items per minute per head, with +/- 1/32"
registration. Reliable refolding is provided by an oscillating chute
with descending tray. In-line configurations are also available.
Single or multiple ply continuous forms can be run one- or two-wide
through the Tamarack Card Applicator. Many features provide fast
set-up. And two convenient control stations allow the card applicator
to be run easily by one operator.

Refolder
and Descending Tray |
- Easy set-up
- Refolds forms for easy handling
|

|
The oscillating
chute refolder adjusts without tools for fold lengths 6" to 22".
The form drops directly into a pack on the descending tray, allowing
the adhesive to dry with minimal disturbance to the card/form combination.
The descending tray's rate of descent is easily adjusted and is linked
to the web speed, providing refolding into a consistent pack height.
An optional infeed conveyor provides space for splicing packs together
and jogs packs into position for affixing. |
