The adjustment mechanism may include a first servomechanism such as pneumatic cylinders (70 and 72) for moving the glue dispensing head into a plurality of predetermined height positions. The apparatus may include at least two glue dispensing heads (32 and 34) on the service side of the machine and two glue fispensing heads on the operations side of the machine and each independently controlled by actuation devices. Advantages include the elimination of manual adjustment on both the service and operations side of the machine to decrease changeover times.</p> |
