Abstract
An adhesive supply unit used in palletizing applications having a multipositional head consisting of a module, service block, and head. Initially, the head is fastened to the service block forming a single head and service block unit. The head and service block unit may then be fastened to the adhesive supply unit in at least two ways at the lower module of the module. In one embodiment, the head and service block unit are vertically attached to the lower module so as to produce an adhesive swirl spray pattern. In another embodiment, the head and service block unit are horizontally attached to the lower module so as to produce an adhesive bead pattern.
