Coating System

The Carpe Diem Coating module applies a uniform controlled thickness coating to a web for drying, curing, or subsequent processing. The available coating options include: Slot die, in which a low to high viscosity fluid is extruded through a die at a metered rate; Ink jet for coating or digitally patterning very low viscosity fluids; and finally, Gravure coating in which the volume of material transferred is precisely controlled by the volume contained in a relief pattern in a gravure roller

Modules standard with system include:

• Unwind
• Coating Options
  • Gravure
  • Slot Die
  • Inkjet
• IR, UV, Thermal Convection dry/cure
• Rewind

Slot Die coating

In Slot Die, a low to very high viscosity fluid is extruded through a slot in a die at a metered rate resulting in coating being applied to the moving web.

Die Coater Features:

• Uniform fluid deposition
• High web speed
• Ability to perform Patch or interrupted coating
• Very compact footprint
• Easy to use HMI interface
