The melter liquifies solid-form hot melt and maintains the hot melt at the desired temperature. When the guns are activated, the melter pumps the liquified hot melt through the hoses and out the gun nozzles, where it is commonly applied to the surface of a product or package.

Nordson® ProBlue melters are simple and compact, designed to maximize uptime and reduce operating costs. These rugged, flexible, non-handed melters fit virtually any packaging line. ProBlue 4 systems are all 5 hose capable and have multiple electrical configurations. The holding capacity on the Nordson® ProBlue 4 is 3.9 kg (8.6lbs) and a melt rate of 4.3 kg/hr (9.5 lbs/hr)
