Many older inliners worked on the basis of capacitive glue control or moisture measurement, explains the Corrugated Board Industry Manager at Baumer hhs. These methods are very unreliable, especially due to the fluctuating moisture content of corrugated board.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The new \u201eMLT-STA\u201c control system from Baumer hhs can be combined with any cold glue application system.
