The new unit called Minicoater includes different options of coating and printing systems, like doctor blade, slot die, impregnation, micro roller and engraved roller printing and a laminating device. With a working width of 100 mm the ink consumption can be minimized for the R&D process. Further the Coatema Minicoater is equipped with a 350 mm hot air dryer in EEx-layout. A laminating station provides the possibility to include encapsulation processes in the operation. Reproducibility is possible without any compromises. The multifunctional unit is equipped with 3-4 motors, load cells and a backward running operation mode. Those features make small sample production an easy operation. The whole unit is enclosed and can also be offered for glove box operations. The Minicoater is released for publication at the Printed Electronic in Dresden. There Coatema´s Minicoater will be shown for the first time.
As Dr. Andreas Giessmann – owner of Coatema Coating Machinery – stated “this will be only one highlight of new equipment in 2010”, Coatema is ramping up a new range of lab and pilot coaters this year to support the ongoing success of the lab solutions programme of Coatema.
All units can be tested and rented for coating and printing trials in the Coatema R&D centre – with 11 pilot coaters and one production line one of the biggest centres worldwide.
The scale-up specialists at Coatema are looking forward to meet you at an exciting exhibition in Dresden. Do not miss the opportunity to meet us to discuss your coating, printing and laminating projects in the field of printed electronics.
