Packaging industry
We ensure a reliable connection
Folding carton gluing
At Reuther-Systems, we manufacture efficient and high-quality hot melt and cold glue application systems for gluing the longitudinal seam, for gluing automatic bottoms or for gluing 4- and 6-point folding boxes. This allows the carton blanks to be glued quickly and precisely in the desired places. Our systems also enable quick adaptation to different folding carton dimensions.
The perfect cohesion
Gluing of end packaging
Do you work in the food industry, beverage industry, pharmaceutical industry, electronics industry or in the e-commerce sector? Then we at Reuther-Systems offer you the opportunity to optimize your end-of-line packaging process. Integrate the entire system or modules from Reuther-Systems into your existing production lines. Our hot melt and cold glue systems offer you reliability, safety and durability.
Corrugated board gluing
Inliner gluing
Reuther-Systems offers solutions with up to three separate application tracks for contactless top or bottom gluing specifically for gluing the glue flap. All application tracks can be switched on and off individually, so that flexible adaptation to the respective requirements is possible. In addition, the length of each individual gluing track is freely programmable, which enables precise control of the adhesive application. This ensures precise and even bonding of the conically punched glue flap.

Automotive industry
Quartz sand in mold
Sand core bonding
Reuther-Systems offers complete systems and gluing valves specifically for gluing multi-part complex sand cores in order to apply the hotmelt or cold glue precisely, quickly, with high repeat accuracy and cost-effectively. This is crucial to ensure the necessary strength of the sand cores while reducing adhesive consumption.
TOGETHER, TOGETHER, LEAD BELONGS TO
Bonding of battery cells
The reliability and success of battery cell production depends to a large extent on precise adhesive application valves. We manufacture these specifically for the battery to be produced. The hotmelt or cold glue joints not only ensure the necessary mechanical stability but also the electrical insulation of the individual cells within the battery module. The design of our valves prevents the formation of air bubbles, which would impair adhesion.
Further applications
- Bonding of window seals
- Bonding of body seals
- Bonding of seats and upholstery
- Bonding of parcel shelves
- Priming of e.g. front and rear windows
- Bonding of sand cores
- Bonding of door seals
- Bonding of door panels
- Bonding of battery cells
- Bonding of filters
- Bonding of fuel cells
- Bonding of side panels
Filter industry
For the maximum degree of purity
Oil filter
Wrap bonding, base bonding, lid bonding and Z-fold bonding can be realized economically with our hotmelt and cold glue systems. The use of different hot melt valves and cold glue valves ensures flexible adaptation to different filter sizes and types. Round, oval or square filters can be automatically glued with polyamides, polyurethanes (PUR), EVA and dispersion adhesives.
Hygienic. Reliable. Highly absorbent.
Vacuum cleaner filter
Reuther-Systems manufactures special application valves for hot melt and cold glue application specifically for hose bonding, floor bonding and frame bonding. In these applications, it is essential that the adhesive bonds can withstand vibrations, impacts, temperature fluctuations and moisture.
Further applications
- Bonding of gas turbine filters
- Bonding of building filters
- Bonding of air filters
- Bonding of oil filters
- Bonding of fuel filters
- Bonding of air conditioning filters
- Bonding of vacuum cleaner filters
- Bonding of wet filters
- Bonding of dry filters
Foundries
Things heat up here
Bonding of molds
Special hot melt adhesives or cold glues are applied to produce complex molds. We also offer you the option of combining the application of hot melt and cold glue. The resulting geometries are used for the production of oil pans, cylinder blocks, gearbox housings, hydraulic housings, engines for lawnmowers and much more.
Wood industry
We open doors for you
Door and frame gluing
Our advanced technologies ensure maximum precision and efficiency to maximize the quality of your door production. Reuther-Systems achieves this through the combined application of hot melt and cold glue. We offer you the right solution for the production of solid wood doors, veneer doors or doors and frames with special coatings.
As little as possible - as much as necessary
PUR pool filling
Our highly developed systems for processing polyurethane adhesives (PUR) offer you efficient and precise solutions for tank filling in various industrial applications. From the selection of the optimum melting unit, to reliable and uniform tank filling, to exact compliance with the desired tank filling quantity.
DECADES OF EXPERIENCE IN THE INDUSTRY
Gluing of solid wood panels
Our non-contact nozzle glue application systems offer you an efficient and precise solution for gluing your wooden strips to produce solid wood panels. The optimum number of glue lines is automatically applied without contact depending on the panel thickness. Sensors make it possible to adjust the length of the tracks and thus ensure that the adhesive is distributed evenly, resulting in greater strength and stability of the solid wood panels.
Perfectly bonded - perfectly laid
Click floor coverings
To efficiently bond the different layers of vinyl, laminate or wood click flooring, we rely on innovative solutions that ensure the components are bonded economically. Our hot melt and cold glue application valves and our hot melt and cold glue systems ensure consistently high production quality.
Further applications
- Bonding of postforming sheets
- Bonding of furniture, fronts and decorative elements
- Gluing of dowels (automatic dowel insertion machines)
- Bonding of foams
Hygiene industry
We ensure the right fit
Diaper gluing
Reuther-Systems supplies extensive systems for bonding the various materials (fleece, absorption materials and elastic materials). The materials are bonded using hotmelt adhesives. The hotmelt is applied by spraying and by contact.
Always on the safe side
Feminine hygiene
Reuther-Systems uses innovative application systems for pressure-sensitive adhesives for gluing panty liners and sanitary towels. Our many years of experience in the field of adhesive application technology enable fast throughput speeds with high precision. The special hotmelt adhesive is applied in a precise pattern using suitable adhesive application nozzles.

- Bonding of disposable surgical gowns
- Bonding of wound dressings
- Bonding of pads and tampons
Print finishing
Safe, strong, sustainable
Fold gluing
Reuther-Systems cold glue valves apply adhesives quickly and precisely as dot or line application. The adhesive is applied to the sheet without contact from the first to the last folding unit. The technique of fold gluing is mainly used in the production of package inserts, booklets and mailings, but is also used in the production of general fold gluing.
Folding support
Waterscoring
Waterscoring, also known as waterline embossing, is a technique used in the paper industry to simplify the folding of paper in order to create precise fold lines. A water or water-alcohol mixture is applied to the desired fold line before the folding process. This causes the products to lie flatter, making it easier to create even folds without tears or breaks.
Further applications
- Package insert closure
- Mailings
- Postcard duplication
- Cheque card, credit card, insurance card insertion
- Sample pasting
- Fragrance dispensing
