Straightforward features streamline maintenance: If youâve seen the latest brochure touting the bells and whistles Nordson has added to its equipment, you may be tempted to believe that this new functionality is something that will make your packaging process easier, more efficient, or more cost-effective. Though in reality, many of these features only complicate the process of melting, pumping and extruding the correct amount of hot melt adhesive and increase your overall costs â in addition to making maintenance even more tedious.
At Glue Machinery Corporation, we keep your ongoing and long-term ownership costs in mind. We understand that the simpler the machine is, the fewer maintenance headaches will occur and the lower the overall maintenance costs. We donât promote rarely used features that may sound snazzy, but offer little or no value. Instead, we focus on manufacturing hot melt equipment that works like itâs supposed to, year after year. In fact, we have machines that are 15 and 20 years old that are still operating in perfect condition, with negligible ongoing maintenance costs.
Same high quality at a better price: When you purchase Nordson equipment, youâre effectively paying a premium for the Nordson name. However, this doesnât necessarily mean youâre receiving better equipment, performance or service.

With such significant cost savings, you canât afford not to take a closer look at what we have to offer.
Empowered customers avoid service issues: Nordson likes to tout its âlocalâ service that may take days to access as a way of making customers feel more confident that if a problem arises, theyâll be able to reach a local technician and resolve it. Thatâs great, but wouldnât it be even better if you could avoid problems altogether, or run and service the equipment yourself? After all, if youâre losing thousands of dollars every hour your line is down, every moment counts.
