The Contact BoardRunner’s patent-pending technology creates a non-linear force curve that takes weight off the valve which allows the glue applicator to adjust seamlessly with the board. Air delivered through a cylinder provides a virtually weightless contact application. The all-electric Series 900 Valve remains in contact with the board at all times with minimal pressure applied to the board. The valve follows the contour of the board whether it’s single-wall, double-wall, flat or warped board. The BoardRunner® features modular, quick-release valve and bearing brackets for simple changeover from top-down to bottom-up gluing.
