🔧 Why Glue Pot Maintenance Is Crucial

The glue pot melts EVA or PUR hot melt adhesive and applies it via the glue roller. Over time, glue residue, overheating, and wear can cause:

  • Poor glue spreading

  • Weak bonding between panels and edge tape

  • Glue leaking or clogging

  • Unexpected machine breakdowns

Proper maintenance boosts productivity and ensures long-term performance.
