Packaging web coating: an all-time Leybold Optics classic |
||||
|
In the world of packaging materials, Leybold is a reference brand name for roll-to-roll web coating machines. Our staff combines hundreds of man years of experience in development, design, installation and servicing of packaging web coating plants. The synergy with the capacitor web coating segment and its extreme performance requirements contribute further to our technological edge over competition in this field. The challenges in the margin sensitive packaging material industry are clear: highest productivity with shortest down-times, lowest cost per coated area through high web speed and minimal scrap, and no compromises on final end product quality and performance. PRO-M is Leybold Optics’ response to these requests. It is a robust and powerful metallization plant for heavy-duty environments in mass production. Standard applications are metallic coatings on paper and plastic foil. Typically generated by aluminium evaporation, these layers act as barriers for oxygen and water vapor in addition to their decorative function, thus generating high-performance packaging materials. Several features of the PRO-M are the result of purposeful R&D work, focused on key performance criteria. There is the high-rate evaporator UNIVAP, a patented Leybold Optics invention. The optimized arrangement of the ceramic evaporator boats results in unrivalled homogeneity and reproducibility. Another example is Leybold Optics’ proprietary RHTC (Reduced Harmonic Thyristor Control) technology for extended boat life time and optimized distributions. Questions, inquiries, comments?
