The Energy Saving from Robatech
Robatech stands out in the field of green technologies for the production of gluing systems that offer an alternative to hotmelt adhesive used in the packaging stages in the ceramic industry, application of anti-scratch wax and coupling of tile packs prior to palletisation.
The hotmelt gluing process normally involves a considerable expenditure of energy because the adhesive must be liquefied prior to application.
The new Robatech gluing plant allows for savings of more than 30% as it reduces all heat losses, especially in the most susceptible zones such as the tank, the pump, the distributor, the pipes and the application guns.
Management costs can be further reduced by installing automatic glue feeders (thereby optimising the use of personnel), using original spare parts that ensure the maximum efficiency of every part of the system, and planning regular maintenance schedules with the local Robatech branch.
The renowned modular design of Robatech systems guarantees effective spare parts management.
The latest generation systems can share many parts with those of previous series, bringing benefits in terms of warehouse management and daily operation. This demonstrates that reducing management costs has very little to do with making savings at the purchasing stage.
The choice of reliable technologies and shrewd equipment management bring benefits in terms of efficiency that far outweigh the potentially higher initial investments.
