Product Development Equipment and Services
To support your product and process development needs, Dürr Megtec offers small-scale roll-to-roll coating machines for those who want to conduct this development internally, and development services for those who want expert assistance with the development work.
LabCoater
The Dürr Megtec LabCoater is designed for product development and prototyping. It is modular, compact and simple to operate.
Reverse comma coater for short runs to develop new recipes.
Slot die coating for intermittent, lane or continuous patterns to support cell prototyping.
The process is easily scalable to production.
Development Center
Located in our De Pere, Wisconsin, USA, facility, the in-house pilot coating line offers mixing capabilities for the preparation of slurry mixtures, multiple coating methods, a three-zone flotation dryer that can be used with a wide range of substrates and tensions, plasma and corona treater for foil substrates, and on-line coating thickness measurement and tracking.
The Dürr Megtec pilot coating line can help you conduct proprietary research and development, and test and optimize new or existing coatings, web materials and processes. The pilot coater facilities help avoid unnecessary expenditures of overhead, capital equipment and start-up costs while developing new products. It also provides the versatility and confidentiality needed for new product development, as well as the ability to produce prototype materials for further research, marketing, and quality testing.
Process engineers, R&D technicians, and analytic staff leverage their collective expertise to solve drying and coating challenges for an ever-increasing array of substrates.
