Business Wire
Graco Inc. (NYSE:GGG) announced today that it is introducing the
ExactaBlend™ AGP Advanced Glazing Proportioner. The ExactaBlend AGP
is designed to solve the inherent challenges of on-ratio mixing for
silicones that are often used in manufacturing curtainwall and
insulating glass. The ExactaBlend AGP system provides optimal
mixing and on-ratio proportioning capabilities that increase
quality assurance of the final product. The system’s real-time
ratio assurance also reduces material waste because the system
automatically shuts down if off-ratio conditions occur.
“Accurate mixing of plural-component adhesive materials is vital
in the creation of insulating glass units and curtainwall,” said
Mike Cryer, Graco Product Marketing Manager. “Obtaining on-ratio
mixing and dispensing for these applications has long proven to be
a difficult industry challenge but the ExactaBlend AGP offers ratio
assurance and is an affordable, high quality solution that offers
attractive savings to the end user.”
In addition to the cost reduction and quality assurance benefits
of the system, the ExactaBlend AGP is also very easy to operate.
Compared to traditional proportioners with mechanical linkage and
rocker arms, the unit’s electronic controls remove the guesswork
from ratio setting and maintenance. The controls provide simple set
up of ratios and also allow operators to make ratio changes on the
fly.
With ExactaBlend’s optional data reporting capabilities, window
manufacturers can track key information such as ratio, material
usage, flow rate, alarm events and system errors. This information
can be gathered via USB data download and used to streamline the
production process and increase effectiveness of the line.
