- MEASUREMENT FOR ALL SUBSTRATES AND PRODUCTIONS - Easycoater can measure adhesive coatings on any lamination substrates: printed, metallized, transparent films and polyolefins.
- STABLE AND PRECISE - Extremely stable and precise measurement: down to 0,2 g/m2 of repeatability. Internal temperature and humidity compensation of the measuring head guarantees the correct measurement in different working environments.
- AUTOMATIC REGULATION - The system manages in closed-loop the adhesive coating process. The acquired data from the scanning are analyzed in order to generate a signal (either analog or digital) for handling the optimal adjustment of the coating roller which applies the adhesive.
- FAST SET UP - The average installation is done in less than 2h.
- EASY ACCESS FOR MAINTENANCE - Easycoater has been designed to guarantee easy access for maintenance operations. Long lifetime, easy to clean, rugged and robust frame.
- SMOOTH MECHANICAL INSTALLATION - Easycoater is based on the typical backscattering setup, therefore it does not require a second head on the other side of the film thus allowing easy installation on the lamination unit. A simple reflective plate must be positioned under the film when it is not possible to use an existing roller as reflector.
- AUTOMATIC DIAGNOSIS - No periodic maintenance required: the system autonomously diagnoses itself and informs the operator if maintenance is needed.
- INDUSTRY 4.0 & IoT - All SYncro machines are ready to be integrated with third party supervisory controls and ERP systems using the latest generation of OPC-UA protocols as standard.
EASYCOATER
Adhesive layer measurement in lamination process
EASYCOATER is the new Syncro device for measuring the thickness of adhesive during the lamination process. The reflection measurement setup grants an easy and non-invasive mechanical installation. The non-contact InfraRed (IR) head can detect adhesive grammage in the range 0.2 – 20 g/m2.
Easycoater measures the grammage of the coating based on the absorption of the distinctive infrared wavelengths of both solventless and solvent-based adhesives; the presence of a metallic surface on the opposite side of the film (i.e. the roller) creates a reflection phenomenon that allows both a strengthened signal due to the double optical travel, and the typical reflection setup with only one head.
