Quiet Progress in Folder/Gluers

Another important improvement in folding and gluing equipment comes by way of adaptability. According to Elizabeth Jordan, senior program manager at Nordson Corp., the main area of progress is changeovers. "It used to be a lot of work to change jobs," she said. "But the ability of equipment to be adapted for different jobs has greatly improved. Changeovers can be done quickly now, compared to past years."
