Davis-Standard: High Pressure Laminating System for Demanding Applications
Davis-Standard, LLC recently introduced a high pressure version of its popular KXP horizontal roll film coating laminating system to address more complex applications. The upgraded system, available with three to four rolls, is designed for producing intricate layered structures used in medical products, lithium batteries and other demanding multi-layer and mono layer film or thin sheet applications.
“This product is already well accepted by customers, but we wanted to extend its capabilities to address precision laminated or coated structures,” said Simon Dominey, business area manager of Davis-Standard’s laboratory and specialty systems group. “It is ideal for applications where you want to use calendaring type production for making ultra thin films or in complex arrangements where multiple layers are laminated together.”
The system features a high nip pressure option of 800 pli (pounds per linear inch) of force between the two primary rolls. It also includes a high pressure laminating option for the auxiliary rubber roll with an operating pressure of up to 200 pli. Special configurations are available for maintaining exact roll diameters, concentricity and roll gap. Davis-Standard supplies the complete system including extruders, payoffs/unwinds and take-ups/winders.
