Simultaneous Two-Sided Coating
The simultaneous two-sided coating is characterized by a straight-path product flow and a single coating station. This unique process provides benefits such as a smaller overall manufacturing footprint and no edge curl after drying, and consists of a slot-die coating on a backing roll immediately followed by a tensioned-web slot-die coating to coat both sides of the foil in one pass. An air flotation dryer enables simultaneous two-sided coating as the foil is running through a non-contact drying process.
Tandem Coating
The tandem coating is based on mature technology with only one, straightforward coating process taking place. Tandem coating is less sensitive to foil quality and thus optimized for large foil widths. The process is characterized by a slot die coating on a backing roll to coat one side at a time. This is more common for high volume manufacturing. Either roll support or flotation drying can be used which provides some flexibility to the customer.
