Smartcoater
The versatile Roll-to-Roll laboratory platform for printing, coating and laminating:
Quick adjustment of modular coating systems.
The Smartcoater is a unique laboratory machinery that can reproduce complex processes in a variable compact form. The Smartcoater is suitable for experienced users and newcomers to coating, printing and laminating technologies.
With working widths up to 300 mm, standardised assemblies and a modular layout the Smartcoater is a fast, cost-effective laboratory or small pilot production tool.
The Smartcoater can delivery complex products with a minimal use of substrates and chemicals and a short setup time.
More than thirty modular coating and printing systems can be quickly and easily mounted. Technologies including inkjet can be exchanged using a Plug&Play system and any number of 1,000 mm dryer systems can be used. From electrically heatable dryers, NIR and infrared to UV-crosslinked systems, the Smartcoater can be fitted with the systems of your choice.
Both wet and dry lamination can be used and corona pre-treatment, web cleaning and systems for web edge control can be integrated.
Precise tension regulation, in the single-digit newton range, can be maintained using measuring rollers. Accurate start-up curves allow the use of very thin or tension-sensitive materials.
A wide range of options and equipment possibilities allow our customers to configure their optimum plant configuration.
In a standard version for technology newcomers the Smartcoater can be fitted with a 6-in-1 application system.
The Smartcoater, like all Coatema laboratory systems and pilot machines, can be tested at the Coatema R&D centre in Dormagen, Germany.
