2.3 Adjusting the setting on the heater assembly

In most situations, the application of heat is helpful to reactivation of the glue and to
proper set-up and adhesion.
You should experiment with different heat settings to optimise adhesive performance
for the tape you are using and the conditions under which you are operating. Carton
sealing done in a cold meat packing plant will certainly require a higher temperature
setting than will carton sealing done in a tropical plant nursery.
As a general rule, the strength of the adhesive bond will increase as the temperature
setting of the heater is increased up to some optimum point. Too much heat:
€ Will cause the tape to dry too quickly before the glue has properly set.
€ Can cause the tape to curl and become difficult to work with.
€ In extreme cases, can cause delamination of the tape, causing the tape to fail.
