Saipu Invites Global Buyers to ASE CHINA 2026: How to Choose the Right Hot Melt Adhesive Equipment

2026-09-11 10:45

Saipu Electromechanical Device Co., Ltd. is pleased to invite adhesive manufacturers, converters, industrial manufacturers, equipment distributors and professional buyers to visit us at ASE CHINA 2026, the China International Adhesives & Sealants Exhibition and China International Tape & Film Expo.

From September 15–17, 2026, the exhibition will be held at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC), covering Halls E1–E4. Saipu will be exhibiting at Booth E1762.

The official exhibition information shows that ASE CHINA 2026 will bring together more than 700 exhibitors and cover more than 40,000 square meters of exhibition space, with a product scope spanning adhesives, sealants, tapes, films, raw materials, production equipment and manufacturing equipment.

For manufacturers looking for hot melt adhesive spraying, dispensing, coating or bonding equipment, the exhibition is more than an opportunity to compare machines.

It is an opportunity to answer a much more important procurement question:

How do you choose a hot melt adhesive equipment system that actually matches your adhesive, substrate, production speed and application process?

At Booth E1762, the Saipu team welcomes visitors to discuss hot melt adhesive application requirements, equipment configuration, process optimization and customized bonding solutions.

1. The Buyer Problem: Why Does Choosing Hot Melt Adhesive Equipment Become Difficult?

A common mistake in equipment purchasing is to compare machines based primarily on:

  • Machine price

  • Tank capacity

  • Heating power

  • Maximum glue output

  • Number of spray guns

These specifications are useful, but they do not necessarily tell you whether the machine will work well on your production line.

A hot melt adhesive system must match the entire bonding process:

Adhesive → Melting → Pumping → Heating → Filtration → Hose → Applicator → Nozzle → Substrate → Production Line

If one part of the system does not match the process, manufacturers may experience:

  • Uneven glue application

  • Excessive adhesive consumption

  • Nozzle blockage

  • Stringing

  • Overspray

  • Inconsistent bonding

  • Long machine warm-up time

  • Unstable adhesive output

  • Frequent cleaning

  • Production downtime

This is why a professional equipment evaluation should begin with the application requirement, rather than simply asking:

“How many kilograms per hour can the machine spray?”

2. Product Selection: Which Hot Melt Adhesive Equipment Is Right for Your Application?

Different industries require different adhesive application methods.

A mattress factory, automotive interior supplier and packaging manufacturer may all use hot melt adhesive, but their equipment requirements can be completely different.

Hot Melt Equipment Selection Guide

Production requirementEquipment consideration
Large-area bondingSpray or wide-area application system
Precision adhesive linesBead or controlled dispensing system
Mattress productionSpiral/random spray configuration
Automotive interiorControlled spray and automated dispensing
PackagingFast-response bead or spray application
Textile laminationCoating or spray system
Edge bandingContinuous adhesive delivery
Profile wrappingStable continuous glue supply
Air filter manufacturingBead, line or spray application
PUR adhesiveMoisture-conscious PUR-compatible system
High-volume productionHigh-capacity melting and delivery system
Multiple adhesive sourcesDual-plate or flexible supply configuration

The right machine is therefore not necessarily the machine with the highest output.

It is the machine that can deliver the required adhesive quantity, pattern and stability at the required production speed.


3. Technical Parameters Buyers Should Compare at ASE CHINA 2026

When visiting different equipment suppliers at the exhibition, procurement teams should compare technical parameters using the same criteria.

3.1 Adhesive Type

First identify the adhesive:

  • EVA hot melt adhesive

  • PUR hot melt adhesive

  • PSA hot melt adhesive

  • PO hot melt adhesive

  • Other specialty hot melt formulations

Different adhesives have different viscosity, temperature and handling requirements.

For PUR, moisture management becomes particularly important because reactive PUR cures through reaction with moisture.


3.2 Glue Output

The required output should be calculated from actual production demand.

A useful calculation is:

Required adhesive output = adhesive consumption per product × production quantity per hour

For example, a manufacturer producing thousands of products per hour may require a substantially different delivery system from a factory producing customized products in small batches.

Do not select equipment solely according to the manufacturer's maximum output.

Ask:

At my actual operating speed, what adhesive output can the system maintain continuously and consistently?


3.3 Temperature Control

Temperature directly affects hot melt viscosity and flow behavior.

Buyers should evaluate:

  • Tank temperature

  • Hose temperature

  • Applicator temperature

  • Temperature control method

  • Temperature recovery

  • Sensor configuration

  • Protection against overheating

Stable temperature throughout the adhesive path is more important than simply having a high heating capacity.


3.4 Pump and Pressure

Pump performance affects adhesive delivery stability.

Procurement teams should compare:

  • Pump type

  • Maximum working pressure

  • Flow adjustment

  • Number of adhesive outlets

  • Pressure stability

  • Compatibility with adhesive viscosity

For example, Saipu's PUR 55S hot melt glue machine is designed for industrial PUR adhesive supply and provides configurable adhesive output for different production requirements.

The important point is not simply the maximum number on the specification sheet.

The key question is whether the pump can maintain stable delivery under your actual production conditions.


3.5 Spray Pattern and Nozzle Configuration

The nozzle determines how adhesive reaches the substrate.

Depending on the application, manufacturers may require:

  • Spiral spray

  • Random spray

  • Flat spray

  • Bead

  • Dot

  • Multi-line

  • Wide-area coating

A suitable nozzle configuration should consider:

Adhesive viscosity + glue output + spray width + line speed + substrate + application distance

This is one of the most useful technical topics to discuss with equipment suppliers at the exhibition.


4. Application Scenarios: Where Can Saipu Hot Melt Equipment Be Used?

Saipu Electromechanical Device Co., Ltd. provides hot melt adhesive machinery for a broad range of industrial bonding applications.

Mattress Manufacturing

Mattress production often requires large-area adhesive application between foam, fabric and other layers.

The equipment should provide:

  • Stable spray output

  • Uniform adhesive distribution

  • Suitable spray width

  • Consistent temperature

  • Reliable continuous operation


Automotive Interior

Automotive interior manufacturing can involve bonding:

  • Fabrics

  • Foam

  • Acoustic materials

  • Trim components

  • Decorative surfaces

  • Composite materials

The focus is often on repeatability rather than simply maximum glue output.

For automated automotive production, equipment may also need to integrate with conveyors, robots or PLC-based production systems.


Packaging

Hot melt adhesive is widely used in packaging because of its rapid bonding characteristics.

Typical applications include:

  • Carton boxes

  • Specialty packaging

  • Beverage packaging

  • Gift boxes

  • Handle bags

  • Courier bags

For high-speed packaging, buyers should pay particular attention to adhesive response, clean shutoff, line speed compatibility and glue consumption.


Leather and Footwear

Leather and synthetic leather applications may require controlled spray or bead application.

The equipment needs to balance:

Bonding strength + coverage + adhesive consumption + substrate protection

Excessive adhesive can increase material costs and create contamination problems.


Composite and Lamination

Hot melt adhesive equipment can be used for bonding:

  • Fabrics

  • Films

  • Nonwovens

  • Foam

  • Composite layers

For lamination, uniform adhesive distribution is often more important than simply increasing glue output.


Edge Banding and Profile Wrapping

Woodworking and furniture manufacturers may require continuous adhesive delivery for edge banding and profile wrapping.

Stable temperature, pressure and glue output become particularly important when production runs continuously.


Air Filter Manufacturing

Filter manufacturers may use hot melt adhesive for various bonding and assembly processes.

The equipment configuration should be matched to:

  • Filter structure

  • Adhesive type

  • Application pattern

  • Production speed

  • Required adhesive amount


5. Procurement Decision: 10 Questions to Ask Before Buying

If you are visiting ASE CHINA 2026 to source hot melt adhesive equipment, do not leave the booth with only a quotation.

Ask these questions.

1. Is the machine compatible with my adhesive?

Provide the supplier with the actual adhesive type and technical data.

2. What adhesive output do I really need?

Calculate consumption according to production quantity instead of selecting the largest machine.

3. What application pattern is required?

Spray, spiral, bead, line, dot or coating?

4. What is the actual production speed?

Provide m/min, products/min or products/hour.

5. What spray width or adhesive line width is required?

This directly affects nozzle and applicator selection.

6. How is temperature controlled?

Ask about tank, hose and applicator temperature zones.

7. How is adhesive filtration handled?

This is particularly important if production is sensitive to contamination and nozzle blockage.

8. How does the machine handle production stops?

This matters for factories with frequent changeovers or intermittent production.

9. Can the supplier test my actual adhesive and substrate?

This is one of the strongest ways to validate equipment compatibility.

10. What happens after installation?

Ask about:

  • Commissioning

  • Operator training

  • Process adjustment

  • Spare parts

  • Remote technical support

  • After-sales service

A machine quotation tells you the purchase price.

A complete technical proposal tells you whether the machine is likely to work.
