About this machine
GA Series Automatic Feeding Gluing Machine
The GA series is an automatic feeding gluing machine: it positions and feeds the sheet itself, so an operator does not have to pick up and register each sheet by hand. Adhesive is applied to the window area without a screen-printing mesh, which removes the screen from the changeover altogether — there is no screen to make, mount, align or wash out between jobs.
Setting the machine up is done in a teach mode. The adhesive path is shown to the machine once and learned immediately, so a new job does not need to be programmed in a separate step. That keeps the time cost of a short run close to the time cost of a long one, which is the usual constraint in window-patching and short-run packaging work.
Three working sizes are built: GA1015, GA1513 and GA2115. The GA1015 has a 1000 × 1500 mm maximum gluing area and takes sheets up to 1080 × 1580 mm, on 2 kW of installed power, in a 2500 × 2100 × 1750 mm footprint. The GA2115 doubles the width: a 2100 × 1500 mm gluing area, sheets up to 2180 × 1580 mm, 2.5 kW, and a 5300 × 2270 × 1750 mm footprint. Both run on a standard 6 – 8 bar compressed air supply.
The standard machine applies liquid adhesive; hotmelt application is available as an option where the bond has to set immediately rather than over a drying interval.
The series suits carton and packaging producers, display makers and print finishers who glue printed sheets in quantity and want the sheet handling automated rather than manned.

Frequently asked questions
What does the GA series do?
It feeds and positions printed sheets automatically and applies adhesive, typically around window openings in cartons, so no operator has to pick up and register each sheet by hand. It suits carton and packaging producers, display and point-of-sale makers and print finishers who glue printed sheets in quantity.
Which size should we choose?
Three sizes are built. The GA1015 glues an area up to 1000 × 1500 mm on sheets up to 1080 × 1580 mm; the GA1513 glues 1500 × 1300 mm on sheets up to 1580 × 1380 mm; the GA2115 glues 2100 × 1500 mm on sheets up to 2180 × 1580 mm. Send us your largest sheet format and we will match the model.
Why is there no screen?
The adhesive is applied without a screen-printing mesh. That removes the screen from the changeover altogether: there is no screen to make, mount, align or wash out between jobs, which matters most when you run many short window-patching or packaging jobs.
How is a new job set up?
In teach mode. You show the machine the adhesive path once and it learns it immediately, with no separate programming step. That keeps the set-up time of a short run close to that of a long one.
Can it apply hotmelt?
Yes, as an option. The standard machine applies liquid adhesive; the optional hotmelt applicator is for jobs where the bond has to set immediately rather than over a drying interval. Tell us which adhesive you use today and we will include the right applicator in the quote.
What does it need on site?
A standard 6 – 8 bar compressed air supply and electrical power of 2 kW for the GA1015 or 2.5 kW for the GA2115. The GA1015 occupies 2500 × 2100 × 1750 mm and the GA2115 5300 × 2270 × 1750 mm. For the GA1513, ask us and we will confirm its power and footprint with your quote.
