Faustel launched the TecMaster R&D Coater/Laminator, designed to meet small scale, early-stage product and process development. The TecMaster is a stand-alone coating/laminating line for laboratory and pilot-scale manufacturing used to predict coating and substrate characteristics in various coating/laminating operations before scaling up to production-level equipment.
The self-contained line with two coating heads, two unwinds, convection dryer, laminator and rewind with integrated drives and controls runs web widths up to 175 mm at operating speeds of 0.1-1 mpm.
The TecMaster has both a knife-over-roll and mini gravure coating head make it easy to perform coating tests on a variety of substrates. Based on data gathered, customers can make adjustments to chemistries, processes and methods before moving up to larger-scale pilot and production lines.
“We engineered the TecMaster with minimal setup so it could arrive onsite and be put to work quickly,” said Dan Young, mechanical engineering manager.
