Improved performance & throughput
Precise application of silicone materials in insulating glass or structural glazing applications is critical for delivering superior adhesion, durability and leak-free performance. The automated dispense of adhesive and silicone materials is critical for achieving architectural requirements and the mix and dispense ratios of material manufacturers. This approach provides a more consistent and complete seal. Learn more about curtain wall manufacturing efficiencies.
On-ratio metering, mix & dispense
The Graco ExactaBlend AGP is a variable ratio system that accurately meters, mixes and dispenses a two-component medium to high-viscosity sealants and adhesives. It is used to seal and bond glass to metal or aluminium structures. Advanced pumping technology creates a better, more consistent bead – which results in reduced reworking and less wasted material. For unique applications, Graco can also custom-engineer an equipment solution in our 130,000 square foot testing lab. Learn more about the Exactablend AGP.
