Hot Melt Equipment Rentals: A Solution for Supply Chain Challenges

During the COVID-19 pandemic, HAR Equipment Sales faced significant supply chain delays and extended delivery times for hot melt equipment and parts. This was especially challenging for our packaging and product assembly customers experiencing increased demand.


Our Response: Building a Robust Rental Fleet

To address these challenges and ensure our customers' production lines remained operational, we invested in a rental fleet of hot melt systems. Our fleet now includes 35 various hot melt systems with features such as:

  • Piston pump and gear pump options

  • Hopper sizes ranging from 10lbs to 100lbs

  • 55 Gallon Drum Unloader

  • Multi-pump systems

  • Dynatec, Nordson, and Valco configured/compatible units

  • Voltage options: 120V, 240V, and 480V

  • Hoses of varying lengths

  • Applicators: Slot dies, single bead extrusion applicators, manual handgun style applicators, UFD fiberized spray applicators, and swirl applicators

  • Conveyor

  • Pattern controllers

Keeping Customers Happy And Operations Seamless

We consider our relationships with customers as partnerships, understanding that production time is critical. We quickly learned that our customers value our ability to respond with urgency and provide creative solutions. Here are a few success stories:

  • Meeting Urgent Needs: A customer needed a new hot melt system with a 12-week lead time. We provided a rental system immediately, keeping their production on track. This quick response helped avoid any production downtime.

  • Temporary Packaging Change: Another customer faced a temporary packaging requirement that their existing line couldn’t handle. Renting multiple hot melt units allowed them to transition smoothly and bought them time to commission a new production line. He was able to keep his customers happy and maintain seamless operations.

Providing Rental Units To Keep Production Moving

We understand that customers sometimes need to send their hot melt systems to HAR Equipment Sales for repair, often without having spare units to maintain production. In these cases, we provide rental units to keep operations running smoothly. Our rental units ensure that production continues seamlessly without any interruptions, providing essential maintenance support when it's needed the most.

This service has proven invaluable, allowing our customers to avoid downtime and maintain efficiency during repairs.

I am a traditionally trained designer who still likes to sketch, draw and brainstorm on a whiteboard.

Having learned the skill of design, layout and print before computers did all of the work gives me the ability to get my concepts on paper and getting feedback from my team. The best projects are the ones that are built in the conference room beforehand with creative and constructive brainstorming sessions. My ability to lead those meetings and understand the business of design is exactly what gives me a leg up on most of my peers.
