Advanced level - FOM sigmaR2R
The FOM sigmaR2R is a lab-size roll-to-roll slot-die coating machine. It consists of unwind, rewind, 2-zone oven, and adjustable slot-die positioning around the coating roll. Components are operated from one integrated control system for easy customization. The FOM sigmaR2R is a continuous non-contact coater suitable to prepare uniform films for R&D and industrial batch production. It is the ideal manufacturing equipment for slurry drying processes of electrode coating.
To accommodate the needs of the operator the FOM sigmaR2R allows for a facile experimental set-up with user-friendly software with remote service support as well as maintenance supervision.
Features and benefits:
- Precision sheet coating machine made from high precision, certified industrial components
- Up to 13” (350 mm) industry-standard web width.
- Coating roller diameter of 100 mm
- Custom width slot-die coating heads up to 350 mm width
- Multiple full-width or stripe-pattern slot-die coating head
- Single face continuous coating
- Horizontal single pass hot air or IR combination oven (1.8 m oven)
- Application foil e.g. Aluminum, Copper, plastic, paper
Compact R2R slot-die coating system
The FOM sigmaR2R is ideal for scaling up research-related and small production batches that require a thermal step post roll to roll web coating used in among others photovoltaics, optical coatings, batteries, fuel cells, and pharma related applications.
Coating & printing methods
The FOM sigmaR2R with optional continuous pumping of ink/slurry capabilities, facilitates the integration of multiple coating and printing methods into the machine frame, for example, slot-die coating and flexographic printing. Designed to handle a wide range of substrates it is currently running with carbon fiber tows, multiple plastics, paper, metal foils, and flexible glass.
