Model: SlimGluer

The WPM SlimGluer TM is a full web remoist pattern gluer designed in an ultra narrow footprint to retrofit between the last print unit and dryer of an existing printing press. Complete with an independent drive, the SlimGluer provides added value to existing printing presses with applications like remoistenable glue, scratch off material or scratch-n-sniff fragrance. Adding the optional anilox cylinder provides the ability to pattern or flood coat aqueous material for additional gloss and protection.
