2️⃣ Hit MENU four times, then ENTER
3️⃣ Arrow right to the hours, scroll up/down until it's right
4️⃣ Arrow right again for the minutes, same deal

Is your Graco InvisiPac throwing a tantrum? Before you start Googling at 2am, meet your new best friend: the HM25c diagnostic screen.

We're breaking down every zone, so you can actually understand what your machine is trying to tell you. Heat zone, pump cycles, fill system status, PLC inputs/outputs, voltage, the whole gossip session.

This screen won't hand you the exact error messages, but it will tell you where to start looking when something feels off.

Imagine if you will... your glue supply runs out, adhesive machines come to a halt, chaos ensues. Indecent bottles without a single stitch of a label line store shelves in all their au natural glory; boxes cover the aisle floors with their bottoms hanging open and insides spilling out. Drama!

But that's why we're here. CGM makes sure you never find yourself in a world without glue. Your products will thank you.

Does your tank system take 45 minutes to warm up? The InvisiPac is ready to go in 10 minutes, which leaves you 35 EXTRA minutes. Just imagine what you could do with all that time…

We'll bring out the demo van so you can see it in action. Just give us a call: 1-800-419-GLUE

🛠️Tech Tip Tuesday 🛠️

Filter codes have you second-guessing your parts order? Let's fix that.

Here's the thing about the DynaFiber UFD applicator, your filter code isn't a mystery, it's hiding in plain sight. Check the data plate on the side cover, cross-reference the model number with the applicator designation matrix and the 10th character tells you everything you need to know.

No more guessing. No more wrong parts showing up at your door.

Have questions about your applicator setup? Call the glue experts at CGM at 1-800-419-4583.

You have adhesive questions…
Why is it stringing?
Why isn't it bonding?
Why is it doing… that?
What a coincidence, because we have answers!
Call us, email us, or even send a carrier pigeon. We'll help you figure it out or find the right adhesive solution.

In today's video, you'll meet the shutoff assembly in the ITW Dynatec. It's the MVP living between your hopper and pump that's doing double duty.

🛡️Job #1: Catch debris before it wrecks the pump and downstream components
🚫Job #2: Shut off adhesive flow when it's time to get maintenance done

Need to remove the filter cartridge? Pop the access cover. Pulling the whole assembly? Make sure you have O-ring on hand.
