 |
 |
Used in many industries but especially for very accurate coatings for high value added products in the filmic industry. Common machine widths range from 300 to 2000mm. |
Coating heads are designed with super accuracy built into the roller T.I.R., which is normally better than 1 micron when running in operation. These rollers are mounted in speciality bearings which are always paired with each individual roller.
Precision adjustments are used in conjunction with extremely accurate pivot arms and taper wedges which are adjusted either manually or automatically by zero backlash ballscrews.
Coating systems include reverse roll, slot die, gravure and multi roll configurations.
Coating mix is delivered very smoothly by enclosed pump fed systems specially developed in the Dixon Research and Development department. Typical coat weights range from 0.5 to 100 microns with very high accuracy being obtained.
To complement the Dixon Ultra High Precision Coating Heads, enhanced servo and Vector drives are used in conjunction with high accuracy couplings to give extremely precise roller speed rotation holding. Normal running speed are from 10 to 600 mpm depending upon the products being produced.
Manual, Semi and fully automatic process monitoring and control systems are available. |
